What’s being going on recently (and not so recently) in the world of celebrity weddings?\u00a0 Green Glass Photography writer Frankie has the latest information on who, what, where (wear?) and how much…<\/em><\/p>\n

We all love a good paw through a celebrity magazine every now and then, and what can be better then a celeb mag with a bit of celebrity wedding gossip!\u00a0 It can be a great way of seeing what\u2019s trending, and lusting over those beautiful dresses that may be just a tiny bit outside of our budgets!<\/p>\n

In this months article, lets take a little stroll through all things celeb, the insane to the low key, and how they compare to us mere mortals.<\/p>\n

Top celebrity wedding of 2017<\/strong><\/p>\n

Pippa Middleton is set to marry head fund manager James Matthews in a surprisingly small ceremony in their local church next month, with the wedding reception being held in her parents back garden with a marquee. I say backgarden\u2026. They do own a \u00a36 million manor in Berkshire so I can only imagine that it will still be something rather fancy and not a few cocktail sausages and plastic cups of beer!<\/p>\n

The dress has been kept under wraps with lots of speculation about the designer, however Giles Deacon was pictured leaving her home at the end of last year, I say no more\u2026 What style do you think she should go for?\u00a0 Personally if I had a derri\u00e8re like hers it would have to be a fishtail number surely?<\/p>\n

\"Paris\"<\/p>\n

Celebrity Weddings: Hen Party
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you have been wondering what you can do for your Hen Party, why not go for something sporty like Pippa and head off on a ski weekend. She opted for the beautiful Meribel in France. It\u2019s a really quiet and quaint location. If you fancy something a bit more lively you could head to Tiegnes or Val d\u2019isere, which as well as great skiing has a good party atmosphere too.<\/p>\n

If sport isn\u2019t your thing, then maybe your hen party style matches Poppy Delevingne, who took hen dos to a whole new level, purely because of the number of celebrations she had.\u00a0 Four, to be exact.\u00a0 They included a dinner party at The Ivy, a blonde-themed do at the Groucho, a Chanel tea party for her nearest and dearest\u00a0and<\/em>\u00a0a weekend-long trip to Coachella.\u00a0 Each celebration was captured via Instagram, and each seemed ridiculously fun.\u00a0 Sign me up!<\/p>\n

Ahead of her wedding to Kanye West, Kim Kardashian had 2 hen do\u2019s.<\/p>\n

The first was in Beverly Hills, exactly two weeks before her big day. The second was spent in Paris the night before her actual wedding. Along with her nearest and dearest friends she dined in luxury at the Salon Chinois inside the ultra glam Hotel Costes. After their luxurious meal, they headed to some of Paris’ most iconic landmarks. When in Paris, after all\u2026<\/p>\n

How does this compare to the non celeb? Well I, like Kim, also headed to Paris\u2026 However I opted for tacky mini mouse ears (complete with a veil) and headed to Disney Paris instead, with burgers and a shake for my luxury meal.<\/p>\n

Celebrity Weddings: Gifts<\/strong><\/p>\n

These days Wedding Lists seem to have been replaced with the ever-useful ask of a contribution to a couples honeymoon. However in the celeb world, gifts are still very much a thing…<\/p>\n

When Kate Moss got hitched she asked for an array of gifts including a \u00a36,600 silk rug, \u00a35,000 cutlery service, and a \u00a34,600 mirror. The strangest request had to be 14 crystal ashtrays from high-end London retailer Talisman, costing \u00a3240 each!<\/p>\n

Or how about a \u00a3500 set of salt and pepper shakers? That was one of the must haves for Heidi and Spencer Pratt.<\/p>\n

Celebrity Weddings: The Dress<\/strong><\/p>\n

For some, one wedding dress is more then enough.. Not if you’re Kim Kardashian.<\/p>\n

She had 2 custom made dresses which were, quite simply, stunning!<\/p>\n

For the vows she donned a\u00a0couture Givenchy gown<\/a>, that featured long lace sleeves, a mermaid silhouette, illusion cutouts at the waist, and a cathedral-length veil. The second was a more \u2018simple\u2019 number designed by Balmain’s creative director Olivier Rousteing. How much I hear you ask? Just over half a million for both!<\/p>\n

If you don\u2019t want to fork out a load for your wedding dress how about getting one of your celeb designer friends to design it for you instead.. oh wait.. Well if you are Eva Longoria you are in luck. The beautiful bride got her best gal pal Victoria Beckham to design her a gorgeous, yet quite simple silk crepe gown, with 2 other dresses for the rest of the day!<\/p>\n

Celebrity Weddings: Wedding Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Not all celebs opt for the complete ‘out-there’ options. Mary J Blige took it back to basics with barbecued chicken, crab, red rice and salad. The cake was from a local New York bakery.<\/p>\n

Reese Witherspoon opted for a rather elegant affair, but for me the desert was certainly the best part \u2013 a separate cake table along with a s\u2019mores lounge \u2013 a whole lounge just for eating s\u2019mores!<\/p>\n

Back in 1981 when Prince Charles and Princess Diana married, they had just 27 different cakes at their wedding. \u00a0 The official wedding cake, however, took more than 14 weeks to make.\u00a0 You seriously have to love cake!<\/p>\n

Bring it forward 30 years to the wedding of Kate and Wills and it seems the cake game is still strong.\u00a0 Their royal wedding cake was a multi-tiered fruitcake designed by prestigious British baker Fiona Cairns.\u00a0 The eight-tiered cake was decorated with white icing and cream, along with 900 delicate sugar flowers \u2014 boasting 17 different types of blooms and foliage, no less.<\/p>\n

But really, celebs (and the royals) are just like us.\u00a0 Alongside the fancy cake with 900 flowers, Prince William had requested a rather scrummy looking chocolate McVities biscuit cake.\u00a0 Cup of tea anyone?<\/p>\n

When looking through all the Celeb weddings I wondered if anyone may have got married on the same day as I did, and found that the amazing Alicia Keys<\/a>\u00a0jetted off to Corsica to get married to her hubby back on July 31, 2010, whilst I was swanning around a castle. What I loved most when reading about her nuptials was that it seems we also have the same choice in flowers as we both opted for a purple calla lily bouquet.<\/p>\n

One thing is certain, \u00a3500 salt and peppper shakers or not, everyone should feel like a celebrity on their wedding day.<\/p>\n
