Celebrity Wedding
Royal coronation: Queen Maxima of the Netherlands
With her easy charm and ready smile, Princess Maxima was quick to win over the Dutch people, immersing herself in the language and culture of her adopted country and even swimming in an Amsterdam canal for charity. The future queen was also instrumental in transforming the reputation of her husband, whose younger years as a boozing university student had led to doubts over his suitability as head of the House of Orange.

Steal that style: Vanessa Traina and Maxwell Snow
When Riccardo Tisci creates your wedding gown and bases that design on Givenchy Haute Couture archives you already know that dress will be breath taking even before you see it. And Vanessa Traina was a very lucky girl on the day she said I do to Maxwell Snow.
Not a conventional bride, what could we expect their wedding proposal was in the bathtub, but a very elegant and stylish bride. I have a soft spot for the lace back and the frontal zipper. The wedding reception was held in Pacific Heights, San Francisco, at her mother’s house, who is no other than Danielle Steel.
Her perfect dress was accompanied by a Madonna veil and studded white satin–and–leather heels; designed by Tisci.
Steal that style: Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake
Go figure, when you least expect it people get married – well at least celebrities! That is the case of Jessica Biel and Justin Timberlake and their unforgettable Italian wedding – feature in no less that 10 pages in People magazine.
According to Justin himself the wedding was “ really a special evening, there were definitely tears from both of us…There were so many highlights from when I first saw her to standing next to her to taking in everyone’s faces.”
The bride wore a petal pink Giambattista Valli Haute Couture gown while the groom choose a Tom Ford tuxedo that “he helped design.” I’m not sure how one helps Tom Ford design a tuxedo but we’ll trust Justin. For me Jessica’s gown was a bit of a disappointment, as she can wear a pink gown for any event she chooses. But if the wedding was “ like a total fantasy” as she says we couldn’t be more happy for her and her groom.
