22 Unforgettable Celeb Wedding Details

Hello! Magazine wrote that David and Victoria went with a purple, green and burgundy color scheme as a nod to Disney’s 1973 film, Robin Hood.

Mila revealed on Conan in 2016 that Ashton bought her a “stunning” engagement ring, but the wedding bands she chose for their nuptials were simpler in taste. Both were from Etsy; Mila’s band cost $90, while Ashton’s was $100.

“I wanted the thinnest possible platinum band,” Mila said. “I went on Etsy and was like, ‘$90? … Buy now.'” 

The white dendrobium orchids, which are Beyoncé’s favorite flowers, were brought in from Thailand for the 2008 wedding ceremony. 

Flowers in the bouquet were handpicked by Harry at a private Kensington Palace garden. Some of these flowers were forget-me-nots, Princess Diana’s favorites, in honor of the late royal.

Angelina’s wedding dress and veil were created with the help of the late Versace tailor, Luigi Massi. Luigi sewed in “dozens of designs” that were hand-drawn by her and Brad’s kids, per People. 

After Brad forgot to pack the tie he planned to wear for the 2014 nuptials, he borrowed a tie from one of his sons and wore it instead. 

The marriage ended when Angelina filed for divorce in 2016.

The ring Arthur presented to Marilyn on their wedding day was borrowed from his mother. Three days after their nuptials, a new wedding band he bought for Marilyn was inscribed with the message, “A to M, June 1956. Now is forever.”

After five years of marriage, the pair divorced in 1961.

Nicole said on Larry King Live! in 2005, via Us Weekly, that she wanted “a very, very big wedding” with “hundreds of people and elephants.” She explained that she wanted an elephant present “because elephants are really good luck, and they’re beautiful animals.”

When the TV star and fashion mogul married Joel Madden in 2010, she followed through on these plans. On the day of their nuptials, an elephant was seen at Lionel Richie’s home, which is where the ceremony took place. 

Katie told Seventeen Magazine in 2004 that she “used to think [she] was going to marry Tom Cruise” as a young girl. By April 2005, her dream was on its way to coming true when the two made their first public outing as a couple. They married during a $3 million ceremony in 2006 and divorced six years later.

The tent was also larger than Michael’s own home — his house takes up 35,000 square feet, while the tent totaled 40,000 square feet.

“My favorite detail from that wedding turned into confetti everywhere,” Samira told The Knot of this theme. “We had a confetti cannon … It shoots thousands of pieces of confetti right after the beat drops. It’s amazing.”

Guests of the event, which took place on Long Island, New York, also included Sting and Billy Joel.

Sarah Jessica told Marie Claire in 2006 that she chose to wear a black dress for her wedding so she wouldn’t attract as much attention to herself. She later wished she’d worn a traditional white dress instead.

“I wore black on my wedding day, and I really regret that. I was too embarrassed to get married in white, and both Matthew and I were reluctant to have people pay so much attention to us,” Sarah Jessica said. “Which is ridiculous, because that’s when you can relish the attention, when it’s natural. We treated it like it was a big party on a Monday night, and I regret it.”

The Pretty Woman star opted for an understated Commes des Garçons white dress for the 1993 nuptials, which People reported occurred after a whirlwind romance of “three or four weeks.” 

The marriage later ended in 1995. Julia went on to marry cinematographer Daniel Moder in 2002, while Lyle married April Kimble in 2017.

The wedding had numerous other extravagant details, such as a live performance of “Can’t Help Falling in Love” sung by Andrea Bocelli and a whole bunch of Dolce & Gabbana.
