Reality star and entrepreneur Kim Kardashian got hitched to New Jersey Nets player Kris Humphries in a lavish wedding in Montecito, Calif. last night with 450 guests as witnesses. The highly anticipated wedding, second marriage for Kim, was kept heralded as the most anticipated wedding of the year, though we think the actual Royal Wedding that happened in England nabs that title. Kim wore a gorgeous strapless Vera Wang gown with a jeweled headpiece for the black and white themed ceremony, a look that reminded us of what Lisa wore to marry Prince Akeem of Zamunda in Coming to America. Though official photos will be released by People magazine, which paid a hefty sum for exclusive rights, E! News released a short clip of the wedding.
Kim’s sisters wore strapless ivory mermaid gowns and carried white flowers. Mother of the bride, Kris Kardashian Jenner, wore the same gown except she embellished it with a large bow on the bust of the gown. It was a true family affair topped with Kim’s sister Kourtney‘s son Mason Disik serving as the ring bearer. The party then moved to a separate tent for an equally lavish reception at which singer Robin Thicke introduced the newly weds. E! News will air a two-part special, Kim’s Fairytale Wedding: A Kardashian Event, on Oct. 9 and 10.
