“We made our own vows and had family members marry us; we didn’t do a sit-down supper because we are much more casual than that and wanted everyone to enjoy some little bits of everything!” “We named cocktails after each other’s nicknames, and we chose all the music by building a playlist for the two years we were engaged,” Whitney Port said of her wedding to Tim Rosenman, where she donned a highly elegant gown that showed off her endless legs.

This particular day was designed to be remembered, and the price tag was a cool $10 million.
Heidi Montag
Fans were taken aback when Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt eloped in Mexico in 2008, but it was no surprise when the pair had a second, public wedding, which aired on The Hills. Heidi wore a gorgeous strapless, low waist Monique Lhuillier ball gown with a superbly designed overlay of silk peacock feathers. Heidi’s co-star, Lauren Conrad, also attended the wedding, despite speculations that she wouldn’t because of her legendary loathing of Spencer.
Khloe Kardashian
Vera Wang’s tiered, strapless gown with purple tints to showcase her hourglass shape. Khloe Kardashian chose this wedding gown for her marriage to NBA player Lamar Odom after barely meeting him a month prior.

Shanina Shaik
One of Victoria’s Secret Angels would expect to find herself on a fashion catwalk looking extremely great, so it was no surprise when Shanina Shaik looked absolutely stunning for her wedding to Greg Andrews a.k.a DJ Ruckus at a private beach ceremony in the Bahamas. Shanina had chosen Ralph & Russo, the Haute Couture husband and wife partnership, for her dress, which was a lovely bohemian style design manufactured in less than eight months.
Nicole Richie
Nicole Richie, a typical bohemian girl, stunned us all by opting for a far more formal gown for her wedding to Good Charlotte musician Joel Madden. Nicole chose Marchesa for all three of her wedding gowns, but the ball gown skirt fashioned from 100 yards of hand-draped silk organza and tulle petals is a princess dream gown to remember. Nicole, a mother of two and also the owner of a successful design business called House of Harlow, has proven that she knows her stuff when it comes to fashion.
Kate Upton
When Justin Verlander married the stunning Kate Upton in November 2017, the actress and Sports Illustrated model looked stunning in her white bridal gown, and Kate couldn’t contain her pleasure when she was next to her new spouse. Kate opted for a classic appearance with her Valentino long-sleeved gown. Her costume was only enhanced by a long white veil and a bouquet of light pink, peach, and ivory flowers.
Shanae Grimes
If you want to do something unusual for your wedding, Shanae Grimes might be someone to go to for ideas.

The stunning 90210 actress turned her attention in a completely different way, and the effect was spectacular; she looked amazing.
Eva longoria
Victoria Beckham appears on our list for the second time, this time as the designer chosen by Eva Longoria to create her wedding gown for her third marriage in 2016. Jose Baston is the lucky man this time, and we believe the third time will be the charm. The Desperate Housewives star looked stunning in an elegantly simple white gown, which stood in stark contrast to her gown for her special day with Tony Parker, which featured an elaborate veil and trail. Eva and Jose are still married and have a son, Santiago Enrique Baston.
Allison Williams
Ricky Van Veen, co-founder of CollegeHumor, was the lucky man chosen by Allison Williams, star of the hit HBO sitcom Girls.

Both the Bad Boys II actor and Dwayne and Gabrielle chose their new step-sons to escort her down the aisle in their second marriage.
Kaley Cuoco
Take fifty yards of fine silk chiffon and ten seamstresses to hand embroider a gown custom designed by Reem Acra in a 1920s inspired style, and you have Kaley Cuoco’s wedding gown for her second marriage. The delicate lace pattern and the way it fit the Big Bang Theory actress were a stark contrast to her first wedding gown, a pink princess ball gown.
Jamie Lynn Spears
At first, she was recognized as Britney Spears’ younger sister, but Jamie Lynn Spears, from the Nickelodeon teen sitcom Zoey 101, which had to be canceled when she became pregnant at the age of 16.

Margot Robbie
Margot Robbie’s 2016 wedding to Tom Ackerley was so closely guarded that there aren’t even any pictures of her gown to be found!

Jessica Biel
Jessica Biel’s wedding to Justin Timberlake is as romantic as it gets! She collaborated with her friend, designer Giambattista Valli, to create a fairytale-inspired gown that defied traditional white gown standards.

The Great Gatsby-themed decor provided the ideal setting for this stunning gown.
Christina Aguilera
Christina Aguilera is a household celebrity due to her powerful voice and witty personality. Her wedding to Jordan Bratman in 2005 featured another unusual fashion choice: a Christian Lacroix gown inspired by Spain. The bodice was simple and fitted, but the ruffled train was eye-catching! The lovely ruffled layers are reminiscent of Spanish flamenco dresses.
Nikki Reed
How many people do you know who could pull off a wedding surprise? We doubt there are many. However, Nikki Reed and Ian Somerhalder have done just that. Guests assumed they were attending a housewarming party! The two stars of the fantasy vampire genre wanted a low-key comfortable backyard affair and kept their style choices simple. Both the bride and groom were dressed in white! Nikki collaborated closely with designer Claire Pettibon to create her dream wedding gown: a long-sleeved, backless, floor-length lace gown with a boho-chic vibe.
Kate Moss
When Kate Moss does something, it is bound to have an impact on fashion for a while. In 2011, she married Jamie Hince in the picturesque English village of Little Faringdon. The three-day event was dubbed Moss-stock due to its laid-back atmosphere and star-studded attendance. Kate Moss chose designer John Galliano to do the honors and his work was magnificent as always! The vintage-inspired sheer dress with intricate gold beading, rhinestones, and embroidery was a perfect fit for Kate, who paired it with a delicate lace cap veil from the 1920s.
Ivanka Trump
“The cake was absolutely stunning. “It stood about 70 inches tall on the table with about 13 layers,” Sylvia Weinstock, who baked the cake, told People magazine. “Flowers surrounded each layer. We had peonies, roses, lisianthus, Lilies of the Valley, and baby’s breath in whites, pinks, creams, flush tones, and ivory.” What else would we expect when a billionaire’s daughter marries the son of a real estate mogul?
Salma Hayek
For French billionaire financier Francois-Henri Pinault, who spent $3.5 million on a dream wedding to Mexican-born Salma Hayek, this was pennies on the dollar. The wedding featured many Hollywood royalty, including Bono, Penelope Cruz, and Woody Harrelson, and was held at the renowned Teatro La Fenice in Venice, Italy. Salma looked stunning in a full-skirted Balenciaga gown. Valentina is the couple’s daughter.
Gisele Bundchen

Giselle wore a stunning floor-sweeping lace gown with an embroidered chiffon veil and matching bouquet to their wedding.
Celine Dion
Celine Dion’s marriage to her mentor in 1994 struck shockwaves around the world. The incredible French-Canadian singer married Rene Angeli in the Notre-Dame Basilica, which is already a huge statement! But it wasn’t enough. Mirella and Steve Gentile created an extraordinarily legendary gown for the young Celine. The gown was made of Italian silk and French lace and reportedly took over a thousand hours to complete. The structured bodice, elegant neckline, and 20-foot train gave her the appearance of a princess! Furthermore, her headpiece weighed 7 pounds and was made from approximately 2000 delicate Austrian crystals!
Priscilla Presley
This dress was worn by the King of Rock and Roll when he married his blushing bride in Las Vegas in 1967, making it one of the oldest on the list. The ceremony, which lasted only 8 minutes, took place at the Aladdin Hotel. Priscilla’s floor-length silk chiffon wedding gown has become iconic, despite the fact that she described it as “plain” at the time. The neckline was intricately beaded, and the sleeves were covered in seed pearls. She was unable to obtain her dream gown due to a lack of time and a desire to keep things quiet. She found this one in Westwood while disguise shopping and paired it with an elegant tiara and enormous puffed veil.
Princess Eugenie
Princess Eugenie stunned the world with her exquisite but daring wedding gown in 2018, when she married Jack Brooksbank at Windsor Castle. She eschewed the traditional veil in favor of a simple updo and an opulent tiara studded with green gems. Her gown was also designed by Peter Pilotto and Christopher De Vos, who are not British, breaking with royal tradition yet again. Her stunning gown was one she had a hand in designing because she had a very specific look in mind. The design duo executed it flawlessly, and they also had a very special fabric made for the dress. The fabric used motifs drawn from important family symbols and incorporated them into the cloth. This results in a truly unique gown that will be treasured.
Mariah Carey
Mariah Carey, the Queen of Whistle Tone and a music icon, is known as a diva, and she can certainly pull it off! Her wedding to Tommy Mottola was inspired by Princess Diana and Prince Charles’ royal wedding, including the dress.

She certainly pulled off one of the decade’s most iconic looks with her tiara and enormous bouquet, and it will be remembered for many years to come.
Beyonce
Without a doubt, Jay-Z and Beyonce are one of Hollywood’s most iconic couples. The musical powerhouses tied the knot in 2008 and the wedding was kept on the hush because Beyonce wasn’t exactly thrilled with the wedding dress her mom had designed for her. They chose to renew their vows nearly ten years later, and this time Beyonce wowed guests in a stunning Victorian-style gown designed by Galia Lahav that reportedly cost $15000. The dress had sheer panels below the waist and many details in pearls, lace, and Swarovski crystals across the bodice.
Amy Schumer
Amy Schumer had her close friend Jennifer Lawrence speak at the wedding of her personal assistant’s brother, Chris Fischer.

Chanel Iman
A star-studded wedding at the prestigious Beverly Hills Hotel with guests like Chrissy Teigen, Gabrielle Union, Odell Beckham Jr., Tiffany Haddish, and Shanina Shaik could only be supermodel Chanel Iman and New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard. “I consider myself extremely fortunate to have married one of his magnificent creations.” Chanel spoke about the Zuhair Murad gown she chose for her wedding day.
Kelly Clarkson
America’s first Idol sweetheart has a big voice, but her fashion and taste are more understated. She married Brandon Blackstock in 2013 in a beautiful outdoor wedding ceremony in Walland, Tennessee.
