Celebrity News: Labor Day Weekend Weddings

Labor Day Weekend proved to be more than a relaxing time for some celebrities who took the opportunity to exchange their vows over the long weekend.  Here, we give you details on the nuptials that had everyone talking:

Gabrielle Union & Dwyane Wade
Basketball star Wade and stunning actress Union took their long-term relationship to the altar in their home town of Miami, Florida on Saturday evening. Their small, intimate wedding was a 1930's themed affair and guests were asked to wear all white attire. The bride wore a Dennis Basso wedding gown with a long veil and carried an ivory bouquet of roses. Friend and guest, John Lengend is said to have shared his musical talent with everyone by performing at the ceremony.

Ashlee Simpson & Evan Ross
Two months after her big sister, Jessica Simpson got married, Ashlee said 'I Do' to her love Evan Ross this weekend. Their nuptials were performed at the Connecticut home of Ross's mother, legendary musician Diana Ross. A friend of the couple performed the ceremony and Simpson's five-year old son helped walk his mom down the aisle. While no images of Simpson's wedding gown have been released, we predict it was a bohemian chic style as that was the theme of her recent bridal shower.

Jenny McCarthy & Donnie Wahlberg
Talk show host McCarthy and former boy-bander Wahlberg made their commitment to one another yesterday at the famous Hotel Baker outside the bride's hometown of Chicago. Guests included the bride's The View cohosts as well as Donnie's former New Kids on The Block band mates. The bride had previously said she wanted a simple day that reflected the couple's love opposed to a large, over-the-top wedding. McCarthy reportedly wore a wedding gown that she purchased from Bergdorf Goodman last month.

Celebrity News: Jessica Simpson's Bachelorette Party!

Jessica Simpson's Co-ed Bachelorette Bash!

By: Amy Darwish

GREG TIDWELL/ PACIFIC COAST NEWS

Good girl Jessica Simpson opted for a fun night with her closest family and friends for her bachelorette party. She and fiancé Eric Johnson share their group of friends and agreed they would have more fun all together than apart. (Awww!) The combined bachelor - bachelorette party included "fun toasts and dinner and dancing," according to one friend in attendance.

The co-ed party did not, however, include any of the tacky x-rated items notoriously associated with bachelorette parties. "It wasn't about being naughty," one friend shared. "They just wanted a great night out with friends and family."

The party may not have been a wild time, but it was still a fun filled night for all. The couple and their guests had a wonderful time celebrating together. Jessica was seen being escorted to and from the rooftop of the Eveleigh restaurant in L.A, where their dinner was held. She wore her hair down and wavy, with simple makeup for the night. She showed off her legs in a little black dress featuring a deep-v illusion neckline. After dinner and drinks, the party moved on to Warwick nightclub, where they all danced the night away. 
Jessica & Eric set their wedding for the July fourth holiday weekend.

We love the idea of a co-ed bash. Would you want a traditional bachelorette party or a co-ed party like Jessica Simpson's? Let us know in the comments!

Fans of the whirlwind romance of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West can rejoice in knowing that the couple have said 'I Do' and are now officially husband and wife! Although the romantic backdrop of Paris was the setting for their pre-wedding festivities including Kim's bachelorette party, the couple said their vows this morning at Fort di Belvedere a stunning 16th century fortress in Florence, Italy.

Guests of the wedding included the bride and grooms' families, celebrity friends such as Jonathan Cheban, LaLa Anthony, John Legend, Kim's long-time friend Rachel Roy, and of course the couple's precious daughter, North.

After guests were seen arriving, they were seated and awaited for Kim to walk down the aisle at sunset. To the live vocals of Andrea Bocelli, Kim was escorted down the aisle by her step-father, Bruce Jenner and lead to the flower-adorned alter to meet her groom. By her side were her bridesmaids including sisters, Khloe, Kourtney, Kendall and Kylie, rumored to be wearing Vera Wang gowns. Here, the bride and groom exchanged words and were pronounced husband and wife in front of their crowd of nearly 200 guests who clapped as the couple then made their way to their wedding reception, a fete adorned with marble tables and an off-white and gold color scheme.

We wish the very best to Kim and Kanye of their new marriage and look forward to sharing more about their wedding as details (and photos!) arise.
