The Kimye Wedding happened: Kim & IgNori wore matching white Givenchy gowns

FFN_NEWSP_KimK_KWest_052314_51427053

Okay. Let’s do this. Let’s power through it. Ready… set… KARDASHIAN.

As planned, Kim and Kanye said their vows at Forte di Belvedere in Florence, Italy. The service was performed by Rich Wilkerson, a “pastor from North Miami.” Andrea Bocelli sang as Kim walked down the aisle. Bruce Jenner walked her down the aisle. Lucifer’s Homegirl held IgNori and Homegirl cried (IgNori did not though). Vows were spoken in front of “a wall of flowers.” Kanye was reportedly “nervous.”

The color scheme was off-white and gold, which sounds very Vegas to me, but it probably was classier than it sounds. Kim wore a custom-made Givenchy gown designed personally by Riccardo Tisci, the man long-rumored to be Kanye’s alleged boyfriend. Apparently, the gown is “white lace [with] handmade lace work and strategic sheer paneling, and this was also included in the ethereal long silk veil.” You can see a Twitter photo here. Kanye also wore Givenchy – a custom tux, reportedly. Tisci also designed a special little dress for IgNori so she could match her mom, which… I mean, that’s sweet. That’s maybe my favorite detail.

The most important details (in my mind) are everything about the food. According to E! News, the wedding meal was “traditional Italian food… traditional Tuscan with a play on ingredients to create dishes that innovate both taste and presentation.” I haven’t seen anything about the cake. Please tell me that after all of his nonsense, they had a good cake. If they served their guests fruit platters or something, they are dead to me.

At the reception, Kanye made an eight-minute speech which… I bet that was an amazing piece of performance art right there. He’ll probably include it on a future album: Perfect Bitch in Florence: Imma Gonna Wife Ya.

Guest list… Rachel Roy was there. Beyonce and Jay-Z were not (more on that in another post). Poor Rob Kardashian also left Europe before the wedding too. Which is sort of funny. Anna Wintour skipped out, although she’s reportedly going to put wedding photos in Vogue. Ugh.

    Thrilled it’s over.

    LOL @ her frozen face and that awful white dress.

    • whipmyhair says:

      I personally think her face is horrifying. It’s like for the first time I have really taken in what surgery has done to her face.

      She has taken what it is beautiful about herself and turned herself into a doll.

      I am currently glad of my imperfect teeth and chubbiness. If I had to choose between the two, the chub wins hands down.

      • swack says:

        +1000

      • Mia V. says:

        During the first season of the Kardashians show, she looked so beautiful; during the show she started to transform into something not enterily human, not alien.

      • kri says:

        @whimpy-I am sure you are hotter than fire, darling. Every single one of us looks better than that Disney animatron, so take heart! Tbh, I have nothing against artful cosmetic touch-ups if one wishes, but the Frankendashians have gone so far beyond, it is downright gross. Better to be natural and alive-looking than…well, them.

      • whipmyhair says:

        @KRI

        Shucks, you’re gonna make me blush! But I’m not one to brag, but I do have E cups. They’re pretty majestic.

        And in that pic she looks like she has just gone through a traumatic experience. Dead on the inside type of hurt.

      • Sherry says:

        I agree! When I first heard the song, “Classic” I thought they said, “Plastic” the line I misheard, “Girl you’re so plastic” made me think it was a song written for Kim. She really just looks like a human version of a blow-up sex doll, including the mouth that is always open.

      • kri says:

        @WHIPmyhair-oh, dear! Here I am making fun of dum people and I typo’d your awesome name to hell and back. I am a fool-forgive me? E cups, say you?? Watch out, or one the Karjackian Klan will try to steal them from you for their own replenishments.

      • SnarkGirl says:

        I can’t remember the last time I saw a photo of her where her mouth was closed. Is she that filled & ‘toxed that she has to walk around gaping like a goldfish 24/7?

        And that make up! Oy! Was she getting married or headlining at the local strip bar? (No offence intended to strippers, who have far more class and much nicer make up)

    • Tracy says:

      I can’t decide which is more ridiculous… the face or that white outfit.

      • Kara says:

        Yea, seriously…what the eff is up with her face? She looks SO strange to me! I can’t even explain it but her face is so off-putting…

      • That DRESS. I’m getting married…I know, I’ll show THIS MUCH boob…

      • Jen34 says:

        WTF is up with that face? It’s a creation of science. It can’t be real.

      • Ramona Q. says:

        The weirdness is from the Botox. If she stopped w the injections, she could be a normal-looking pretty woman. The surgery isn’t really bad, it’s the Botox!

    • mimif says:

      Where’s blue marie? *hums We’ve Only Just Begun…*

    • Mingy says:

      She’s two more fillers away from looking like Mickey Rourke.

    • minnieder says:

      Why can’t she close her damn mouth?!? So annoying, that constant “duh” face that she thinks looks sexy. Close your fucking mouth!!!

    • babee says:

      weird, her nose in the first pic looks like a peni$. just saying.

    • Kiddo says:

      I read an excerpt of Kanye’s speech over at the d-listed. It sounded more like a manifesto than a toast.

  2. ClaireB says:

    Why are there so many people taking pictures. I don’t get it. WHYYYYY for frak’s sake.

    Oh and there must be an awful joke to be made about Andrea Bocelli’s blindness in that situation.

    • PunkyMomma says:

      Oh ClareB – that’s so bad in a snarky way 😝

    • Dani2 says:

      @ClaireB You’re so wrong for that comment but I laughed, not gonna lie 😉

    • Ag says:

      So wrong, yet so right. Haha

    • Eloise says:

      A photo journalist once wrote that when you see a close-up shot like that in any article or news site it’s because they want to make the audience think it’s a huge crowd when it’s not. (Another picture showed about 12 people – I’m thinking they were hired. Like those in Italy that were waiting for Justin Beiber and pizza had been ordered for them, hmmm.)
      However, if you see a picture taken from far away of a large crowd, that is the only time in photo journalism that it is truly a large crowd.

    • The Other Katherine says:

      I think what you’re looking for is, “For the first time, Andrea Bocelli felt that losing his sight at age 12 might have been a blessing in disguise.”

      • ClaireB says:

        Couldn’t wrap my head around the right formula, that’s exactly it, thank you . That is awful 🙂

        And “Love is blindness” is not too bad either @kri !

        That kind of photos are staged…interesting.

  3. butterfly J says:

    That twitpic. Her dress and veil are very remniscent of Kate Middleton’s.

    • Jules says:

      Middleton’s dress didn’t have sheer panels in it. Or look like it came from a David’s Bridal sidewalk sale.

    • Beatrice says:

      Her dress looks beautiful.

    • FLORC says:

      Kate and Kim’s dresses are so different I can find no matching qualities, except they’re both white and both lace. Middleton’s dress was a rip off of another dress worn earlier that year. It’s rare to see something truly original these days.

      Kim has terrible fashion sense at times, but this wedding gown was pretty. The hair was simple an the veil was lovely.

      On a side note… Kanye has been rumored to be sleeping with Kim since her 1st marriage.
      I’m betting she knows him and what needs to be done to keep him happy. If he needs to vanish for a year to write analbum she’s made peace with it.
      I think they’ll last longer than expected. And I think there are even more Kate/Kim comparisons now that both are married.

  4. Sabrine says:

    Congrats to them. I’m sure Nori looked adorable in her little matching dress. I read somewhere the cake was seven tiers with fruit inside.

    The white outfit above is basically awful.

  5. Amelia says:

    Anyone else see a slight resemblance to Duchess-Dolittle’s dress in the Twitter pick?
    Or is this the final confirmation that I know sod-all about fashion and am basically going “ZOMG, LACE!!! TWINZIES!!!!!!”

    • Original Tessa says:

      Well, they both contain lace and have sleeves, and are white. Other than that, totally different.

    • Emma13 says:

      haha, I definitely see similarities between the two gowns. Either we’re right or we both know next to nothing about fashion 🙂

      Edit: I see Original Tessa’s comment now : (

    • Renee says:

      I thought that they looked similar as well.

    • Beatrice says:

      Agree with Tess. Lace and sleeves hardly makes two dresses the same. That’s like saying two strapless dresses with beading are the same.

  6. Nashville Girl says:

    So glad it’s finally over!

    • janie says:

      Oh, I beg to differ…. Now comes the Honeymoon with E Entertainment capturing all the “need to know and see” details.

    • GreenEyes says:

      Wait 72 days before finally making that statement:). It’s in the Kardashian E Handbook;)

    • Beatrice says:

      You obviously are pretty compelled by it to be leaving a comment. Seems if you were that uninterested or over it, you wouldn’t bother reading this article to begin with. I imagine you’ll likely be commenting on the next article detailing their honeymoon as well.

  7. Christin says:

    As MichaelK says, let the divorce countdown begin!

    As happy as I am that this part is over, I know it’s not really over. Next chapter will be rumors of fighting, infidelity, and general misery.

    • GeeMoney says:

      For reals. Only Part 1 of this crazy circus is over. Part 2 starts any day now.

  8. Stephanie says:

    This whole thing is such a farce to me.

    • Rita says:

      A farce, yes but its all a tax deductible business expense which means they will get back 52% of the cost on their tax returns; 12% California and 40% Federal. Meanwhile, the country is $17,000,000,000,000 dollars in debt with annual interest payments of $500,000,000,000. So, I guess this wedding is money well spent……NOT!!!

  9. paola says:

    *steals the Mic off Kanye’s hand *
    Yo Kanye Imma let you finish but Beyonce here had the best wedding of all times!!!

    Anyone knows anything about the vows? Was it ’till 72 days do us part?

    • kri says:

      @Paola-LOL!!! Ugh, I am sad that Bocelli sang, but I am sure he was the best thing about this affair. That “guest list” It was a veritable list of “Who The F*ck Is That”. Jaden Smith! Joe Francis! HAHAHA!! Douches of a feather, and all that. I cannot comment yet on the fashion, as I have not seen enough. All I got to see was the pic in profile of that twit covered in mosquito netting and upholstered in white lace. I am sure the baby was lovely, though.

      • Dizzle says:

        Haha. Douches of a feather is right. We have to include that insufferable Jonathan Cheban in that group as well.

    • EscapedConvent says:

      Kanye’s 8-minute vow-speech was delusional & filled with references to his own genius. He looked into his bride’s dead eyes deeply & said these words “Baby you’re awesome, I’m also awesome” as if she could actually understand him.

      Then her vow, (all the words she could remember)
      “Ah-hah, hunn-y.”

      & the wedding hostages wept.

    • John says:

      Best Comment of the Day.

  10. cynthia says:

    CIRCUS

  11. Original Tessa says:

    Is calling the baby IgNori a play on the word ignorant, or is it some sort of comment on how her parents ignore her? Either way, she’s a baby. She’s innocent.

    • Stef Leppard says:

      It’s because her mom ignores her.

    • Jules says:

      It’s for ‘ignore’. They should have named her ‘prop’.

    • original kay says:

      I know. it’s sad that this site still calls a baby that, but what can you do?

    • khymera says:

      I think its pathetic that grown women and men insist on call the child by that stupid name and she’s such a beautiful baby.

    • Darlene says:

      I think it’s a disgusting “nickname”. I wish this site would quit using it, but apparently it’s just too fun and wonderful to stop insulting a newborn.

      • Tiffany says:

        I think it puts the insult were it belongs…her parents.

      • PoliteTeaSipper says:

        Welcome to the Internet!

      • Petee says:

        Darlene all the celeb sites use it not just this one.Was it DListed that first started it or a blogger?It has been going on for so long I can’t remember.This site was probably the last to even pick up on it.It is nothing personal about the baby but directed towards her horrible parents.I think she is very cute personally but her parents yuck!

      • claire says:

        It’s not insulting her, it’s insulting the parents.

      • sunsetsnow says:

        It’s hilarious and referencing the parents not the baby. This is Celebitchy. It’s all in good fun and gossip.

  12. oce says:

    IgNori is the BEST nickname ever – I have been meaning to write that for a while. BTW – I was in Geneva, Switzerland airport last week enroute to London and EVERY NEWSTAND had wall to wall tabloids with Kimye on the cover. As an American, i was stunned/disappointed/annoyed all at once. How crazy is that they are so (over) exposed? Like, have you ever seen that Jordan/Katy Price on the cover of a US mag? Thank goodness, no… So why not pay us Americans the same favor by not covering these never-do-anythings?

    • Sixer says:

      Some of us Brits are sane, honest. If it hadn’t been for coverage on this site, I wouldn’t even have known this was happening. I’m too busy watching our version of the Tea Party being voted for by thousands and worrying.

      But to be fair: this whole shebang took place in Europe.

      • Ag says:

        It’s not making fun of the baby. It’s pointing out that her parents are selfish attention whore$ who parade her out when “necessary” and otherwise seem to let the nannies take care of her because they’re too busy shopping and eating out.

    • original kay says:

      really? making fun of a baby is the best?

      • eliza says:

        I do not think it is making fun of the baby but more mocking the self indulgent parents who parade their mugs in front of the paps every day instead of tending to their infant daughter. Having a staff look sfter a child does not equate good parenting.

        I think that is the basis for the name.

      • Tracy says:

        It is not making fun of the baby. It is pointing out that with the amount of time that Kim spends getting glammed up, taking daily pap strolls and photo shopping endless selfies there is little time left for her young daughter.

      • ALJsMom says:

        Uh yeah it is making fun of the baby. It is really hurtful to give her that nickname.

      • original kay says:

        um, yeah, it’s making fun of a baby. it’s her name.
        make fun of kim all you want, but kids should not be a part of it.

      • Tracy says:

        We will have to disagree. I have always viewed it as a knock on Kim and Kanye’s (lack of) parenting. Not on the child herself. Still view it that way.

      • Darlene says:

        It’s absolutely making fun of the baby. It’s sad. 🙁

    • HarleyB says:

      I think Ignorphan is kind of funny too….I know its cruel, but we will stop when they let us know she can read.

    • Godwina says:

      That is sad to hear.

  13. Stef Leppard says:

    I find it so tacky when people wear a big white dress for their THIRD wedding! I mean, couldn’t she have worn a nice suit or beautiful cocktail dress or something? Is this an old-fashioned sentiment?

    Edit: I get why they had a big wedding, since it was Kanye’s first marriage, but I’m still giving the big white dress some side-eye.

    • Dee says:

      It’s actually the other way around. It’s old fashioned to think a third time bride can’t or shouldn’t wear a big white dress. I think that whole “white is virginal” “white is for the first time” mentality is so archaic. It’s usually the same people who shade a first time bride for wearing a colorful gown or a short cocktail dress or hip suit.

      Listen, I can’t stand Kimye and I usually avoid commenting on their posts altogether but this just irks me, no offense to you directly (I’m just using your comment as a jump off). The fact that it’s Kanye’s first marriage shouldn’t dictate what the bride wears even if it was Kim’s first time down the aisle as well. A friend of mine once got the side-eye for throwing a big ceremony and wearing a white gown for her second wedding (hubby’s second as well) and she jokingly said “it may be your second time coming to my wedding but it my it’s my first time marrying him, so if you don’t wanna see it don’t come.”

      Seriously brides, wear what ever the hell you want. I think it’s stupid as hell to spend all that money on weddings anyway but to hell with all these social mores that try to dictate what is and isn’t appropriate for women to wear, especially when the ideology behind it is tied to purity, chastity, virginity, and feminine humility.

    • We Are All Made of Stars says:

      The idea that white represents virginity is bulls&%. The tradition of wearing white wedding dresses began with Queen Victoria, who wore a white dress on her wedding day simply because it was the fashionable color at the time and because its impracticality made it synonymous with a display of wealth. Before that time, women wore blue, which ironically symbolized the virgin Mary.

      • m says:

        You are correct about wearing white but wearing a veil over your face actually symbolizes virginity.

    • Dizzle says:

      This really annoyed me too. Third wedding, two divorces, a sex tape and a kid under her belt and she wears a huge white dress and an even bigger veil.

  14. Steph says:

    Rest easily. E reported their cake was multi-tiered and covered with silver and white macaroons. This makes me so angry bc I love the idea so much!! I guess I have more Kartrashian in me than I thought.

    Also- should we be worried about Rob? I feel like he is in the edge of a breakdown.

    • eliza says:

      I think Rob wants to be left out of the madness that is the Kardashian machine. While he is battling depression I do not think it is as serious as a breakdown or suicide, which many are saying.

      Sometimes you just have to worry about yourself and distance yourself from people and situations that are not healthy for you. I “think” that is where Rob is at. I guess time will tell.

      • Steph says:

        I hope he quits the show, moves to Florida to be with his love child,becomes a CPA , and lives a happy normal life. Is that too much to ask? Lol.

      • eliza says:

        @Steph- No, not too much to ask at all. I have not always liked Rob’s behaviors towards women BUT I think if he continues to distance himself from those hyenas he might have a chance at being someone his late father could be proud of, especially in comparison to the other children.

      • khymera says:

        I’m worried too he looks like he was actually crying at the airport. Felt sorry for the guy and I dont like him.

    • kri says:

      Rob is either on the edge of a breakdown(who could blame him) or he is in the act of contract negotiations( again, who could blame him). In either case, I hope he, like, Bruce can at least sort of pull away from this pack of rabid, vapid foam mongrels.

  15. jess says:

    So is this mess going to be on tv? I’m surprised rob left before the wedding but I guess he can always be there For her next one.

    Pmk cried cause now she knows with Kim marrying kanye it just extended their 15 minutes.

  16. eliza says:

    Hopefully the constant media frenzy over these two supreme dbags will die down and we won’t hear too much until the divorce I am predicting in less than 5 yrs.

    It is their money BUT this over the top event seems ridiculous for a 3rd time bride. Everyone points out “Well Kanye has never been married”. Nope but it is kinda creepy when a man is really involved in wanting a splashy affair in my opinion.

    Who thought Wintour OR The Carter’s would deign to attend? Anna fulfilled her obligations to buddy Kanye for the next 20yrs. with that Vogue cover. Jay Z and Beyonce have nothing to gain by subjecting themselves to a wedding circus with some woman they barely want to acknowledge. Beyonce made a public, obligatory gesture with her Tweet for PR’s sake. Done and Done.

    • almondey says:

      idk about creepy. I had a co-worker who just wanted to do a city hall wedding and they actually did one and then 10 months later, they planned a big huge wedding complete with church, family members flying in from south america and a beautiful reception + after party because the husband really really wanted it.

      I thought it was really endearing because at the end of the day, a wedding is a celebration of the joining of two peoples’ lives. If anything, it’s kind of nice that a man wants his voice in that celebration.

      • eliza says:

        O.k that’s cool. It is just my personal opinion. I do not expect others to agree with it.

      • swack says:

        Having a voice in the wedding and planning the entire thing are two different things. My ex had a voice in the wedding plans. It was pretty much 50-50. I’m not sure Kim didn’t want him to do it all that way when things went bad she could put the blame on him and say she only wanted a small wedding.

  17. The Original Mia says:

    That dress looks nothing like Kate’s, which was a close copy of Princess Grace’s. I loathed Kim but long sleeves and lace aren’t exclusive to Waity, especially with the sheer panel in the back.

    If Kim was being her usual vain, shallow self and blasted Rob for his weight, then I don’t blame him for bolting. Who does crap like that?

    • decorative item says:

      My Mum, that’s who.

      • Gia123 says:

        At first I thought so too, but she has very small details that were probably meant to mimic Kate’s if you really look. Lacey with long sleeves. Sheer single layer veil. Kim’s bouquet is small with white bud like flowers like Kate’s.

        As imitations go, I like Kim’s take on Kate rather than Kate’s take on Grace. Kim’s dress despite the copying is still very original and very her. Kate’s was unoriginal and kinda cheap looking IMOH. A Sears-Roebuck/JCPenney’s knock-off of Grace’s with a couture price tag.

  18. don't kill me i'm french says:

    Now Kanye Kardashian ( born West),Kim and IgNori will live happy until the end of the agreement with E!

    • zut alors! says:

      Shouldn’t you be crediting dlisted’s Michael K for the Kanye Kardashian (born West) moniker?

      • eliza says:

        I dunno. I have seen it on many sites over the last few months. I love MK but I do not think that was exclusive to him or his web site.

      • We Are All Made of Stars says:

        Heck no, I’ve been calling him that since it first broke that they were dating. I personally felt it was a sign of how they were destined to be together. I also demand that they change North’s name to my original choice of Kitten West.

      • don't kill me i'm french says:

        It’s my joke on Kanye since he’s engaged to KK
        I want my right on this joke but i has no right on IgNori

      • Damaris says:

        Charlamagne tha God has been calling Kanye “Kanye Kardashian” for a long time now. I think Michael K. should give credit where it is due.

  19. Tiffany27 says:

    Kris Jenner was probably front row speaking in tongues out of sheer happiness.

    • Dizzle says:

      I almost just spit out my water. The PMK speaking in tongues visual was too much.

  20. lisa2 says:

    The wedding happened and now we well go on. I got so sick of ENews and their coverage. So over the top. Just too much.

    The dress looked nice. I’m not a big fan of lace so not appealing to me. You never know maybe they will last.

    the thing that I was very fascinated by was that there were no real big stars at the wedding. Kanye is a big musical star yet there were not many musicians there. The media was hyping it as the wedding to be; but it seems not many people wanted to be there.

    • almondey says:

      THIS! Kanye has won SO many Grammys and collaborated with so many artists and there were hardly any of his cohorts, musicians, rapers, female vocalists–anything? I always thought Kanye got along pretty well with the likes of Eminem, Rihanna, Nicki Minaj and yet they were all no-shows and I doubt it’s because Kanye didn’t invite them..

      • lisa2 says:

        I wonder if he will be upset regarding the no shows. It seemed more Kim’s followers than Kanye’s.

      • als says:

        Yeah, I expected a better line up as well. If Kanye did invite them and they didn’t show up, that would be really sad. In spite of his faults, I like Kanye, he’s like an overgrown baby and I think he was genuinely nervous.

      • Jayna says:

        I posted the same thing below. It’s shocking really I saw very few. Kanye is huge in the industy. I am shocked. Kim must be pissed. This isn’t what she signed up for. She wanted Beyonce and Jay-Z and Gwyneth Paltrow and really famous people. She got Brittany Gastenieu and the rest of her D-lister friends who appear on her show Common was probably rolling his eyes the whole wedding.

        I wonder if John Legend came as a guest and performed for free as a gift, or if he was paid to be there. I saw his wife there.

        Is Laila Ali a friend of Kim’s or Kanye’s, I wonder?

    • Beatrice says:

      Good comment on the guest list. I saw pics of some of the guests on the DM site and wondered who all those Z-listers were. I guess they couldn’t net any of their “A list” friends!! Even their pal Wintour declined.

    • don't kill me i'm french says:

      Steve McQueen the director and Rick Rubin the music producer were there

    • Davy says:

      I dont know, it seemed they invited close friends and family. Kanye’s close friends in the industry (John Legend, Common, Mos Def) showed up for him, even though they’re all respected musicians who don’t chase fame. I think it speaks to Kanye’s credit that the artists he is actually friends with (and the ones with actual cred) were the ones there. Maybe he didn’t even invite all the bigger names who aren’t in his circle (minus Bey & Jay who I’m sure he’d prefer not be there given their recent controversy and probablity of pulling attention away from the wedding). Maybe give Kanye some credit – he could have just wanted his actual friends there.

      He’s also an amazing artist and has a keen eye for production and design so I don’t think it’s that strange for an artist like him to want to be involved in creating an epic presentation for one of the most important days in his life. He is marrying his dream girl, let them have this 🙂

    The most important question to me is was this legally binding or was it just one more stunt pulled off by the biggest stunt couple of all time? No one can seem to find a license that they were quietly (cough) married in the states. I wouldn’t put it past them to still be in the prenup stage and decided to have a pretend wedding. Truly. I’ve gone from not carrying about this woman to disliking this woman to really disliking this woman to NOT believing a word about this woman ever.

    Who will be husband number four? And will wedding number four take place as the half-time show at the Super Bowl?

    • decorative item says:

      I know, right? Kim told the world that she wants to be married at least eight times, like Taylor, and he’s the third. Can’t he count or is he just so excited at being able to design his dream wedding?

    • Ag says:

      Lol

      Super Bowl 2016? Or is that too soon?

  23. ncboudicca says:

    Does anyone else think that the choice of “Con Te Partiro” is an odd one for a wedding? I always understood that song to be about a couple parting ways.

    Reminds me of a friend whose first dance as bride and groom was to “No One Compares 2 U”. Yeah, they’re divorced now…

    • paola says:

      In Italian ‘con te partirò’ means ‘With you I’ll go’ so no, it’s quite appropriate for a wedding. It’s a love song.

      • original kay says:

        it’s such a beautiful song,

        the duet with sarah brightman is out of this world beautiful to listen to.

      • Hiddles forever says:

        @paola

        Was that a love song? I forgot the rest of the lyrics lol. I might be evil saying this but I can only think of only one explanation about Bocelli being at such a trashy wedding.. *cough cough*

        Btw the pics from forte belvedere overlooking the railway are priceless…. was not available any other nicer venue in Florence for them? I can’t believe that :/

      • paola says:

        @HiddlesForever

        The song goes like this
        ‘Con te partiròòòòò Paesiiiiii che non ho mai veduto e vissuto con teeeeee adesso si li vivrò con teeeee partiròòòòòò
        su navi per mariiiiii che, io lo so, no, nooooo, non esistono piùùùùù con te io li vivrò.’
        e poi non me la ricordo più!! ahah!!
        Bocelli is a great singer but i think he has money problems so probably that’s why he agreed. The fact he couldn’t see that trainwreck of a wedding was what it saved him.

        Anyway.. I live in Florence for good part of the year (six months) and i live 200mt away from the Fort. Last night I could hear screaming girls from my window (apparently they were there for Bieber that never showed up!) and I think the best location in Florence for a wedding is either Piazzale Michelangelo (which would be amazing to close down to traffic and have an amazing wedding reception) or in Fiesole. The Belvedere Fort though has a beautiful view of the town and it’s quite secluded too so I guess it was ideal for them. But not for me! Thank god the circus has left town and with it the elephants sisters.

      • paola says:

        @Original kay

        If I’m honest everytime i listen to that version of the song with Sarah Brightman I feel like crying.
        She has such an amazing voice.. and Andrea is just effortless when he sings.. I’m not a fan of that genre of music but damn those two make me weep.

      • hayley says:

        http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HaDxk4XadC4 “time to say goodbye”. it’s a beautiful song, but not really one for a wedding march. Well, maybe this one, though……

    • kri says:

      Honey, that moron with Juvederm for brains probably thought the song title meant”Let’s Party” in Italian. She is so, so dumb.

    • We Are All Made of Stars says:

      My Mom swore that classic Police stalker song “I’ll Be Watching You” was a popular wedding dance song back in the day. Yeah, that sounds like a healthy and balanced relationship to me.

      • Renee says:

        It was, that’s why Sting wrote If You Love Somebody (Set Them Free), because he felt badly that this stalker song was being played at people’s weddings. The tragedy is that song is inferior to the stalker one.

      • TheOriginalTiffany says:

        Plebes tell me you guys mean “nothing compares 2 U” and “Every breath you take”.

        I feel so freaking old right now.

      • cr says:

        I don’t know about weddings, but my sister had several acquaintances and friends think that was a nice, romantic song. My sister, who’d been stalked by an ex, understood what the song was about immediately, and had to explain to these people why she didn’t like it and thought it was creepy.

  24. Lark says:

    I think it’s kind of sweet that IgNori had a matching gown. It’ll be interesting to see if this lasts….

  25. Talie says:

    I feel for Rob, but he never seemed to come out of hiding in Paris. His weight gain was quite shocking. There is something terribly wrong with him, I think.

    • emmie_a says:

      I am totally sickened if the rumors are true, that he left before the wedding bc Kim said something to him about not even trying to lose weight for her big day.

  26. GIRLFACE says:

    Hate the dress. It looks like a nun habit with a boob window and her face is totally gross.

  27. almondey says:

    what’s the over-under on an elevator fight footage between kanye and rob kardashian surfacing in the next week or so?

    Kim will not be outdone by Queen Bey! She’s got tons of siblings and she can make fights happen too! Better yet, she can arrange to have her own brother kicked out of her own wedding.

    #Kimistheworst

    • word says:

      Yeah seriously, I wouldn’t put it past them to have some fake family fight for ratings. Their new season is starting soon.

    • kri says:

      @almondey-lol! You are so right, and I could see PMK donning a referee belly shirt and black boy shorts with thigh highs so she can ref that crap while looking “hotter than my daughter”.

  28. Chrissy says:

    What is up with the constant mouth open in pics? Is she suddenly a mouth breather, plastic surgery froze her face that way or she thinks it looks sexy?? She honestly looks totally vacant to me. Not like a happy bride at all.

    • Ag says:

      I suspect she can no longer close her mouth -her face has been pulled too tight.

      And yeah, why DOESN’T she look happy? Laying the groundwork for “very special episodes” of the K show that show the breakdown of her current marriage?

    • Smoochie says:

      I’m sure it must be paralyzed completely.

    • Jayna says:

      She practiced that look in the mirror for weeks. How dare you make fun of her. LOL I know. She looks stupid. It’s so fake.

    • Petee says:

      She has too much fillers in her lips.If she would just stop they would go back to normal in a certain amount of months.Just depends on how much was used.

    • EDub says:

      It’s not just her – Kanye never has his mouth closed either. Is he a botox junkie too? He always has the exact same rage-y idiot expression in every picture on every site. Is it a global gossip blog conspiracy to only show that expression, or is he really that dumb and angry all the time?

  29. truthful says:

    today there is some kind of HUGE party, LOL

    I read that his speech was all about how the trashians are so great and now that they are joined, they will take over the world.

    hope we can get his speech posted here, smdh

    poor Rob and Ignori

    ps. Riccardo was not there either per reports I read.

  30. word says:

    I heard the guests had to sign confidentiality agreements yet the details of their wedding ceremony and party got out…hmmmm wonder who leaked that lol.

    I am curious to know why Jay and Beyonce didn’t go. It’s not like they are on tour right now or anything. Plus didn’t Kim say the wedding would not be taped for their show?

    Lastly, yeah they better have Italian food at their wedding, they are in Italy !

    • Josephine says:

      Yeah, because Kim never lies. There was a tv camera there according the very friendly TMZ and Radar sites.

  31. Smoochie says:

    Wow, I just got a look at her ring set, hilarious!

  32. Jaded says:

    Everything they do is basically putting lipstick on a pig…polishing a turd….sprinkling glitter on dog poo….

  33. Jayna says:

    Her face is too thin, but what is it with those solemn poses? I am so irritated every time I look at her fake facial expression she is putting on for the cameras. Most people smile at their wedding and leading up to it. In what world does she think those serious face shots are making her like her idol, icon Elizabeth Taylor, and an A-Lister? She just looks dumb because she keeps doing it. So you know it’s on purpose, like she thinks it elevates her past her fame-ho days.

  34. Marion says:

    How about Rob who was seen leaving Florence “in tears”?
    Am I the only one to think that this guy needs serious help or else this will end up in a tragedy?
    Well, at least Lucifer’s HG would have a new line for her show… So sad…

  35. Lucy2 says:

    I have to laugh a little at theidea of PMK crying watching Kim get married- you’d think she’d be used to it by now.

  36. Jayna says:

    On Daily Mail, I see very few A-Listers for the amount of guests they have and for Kanye’s stature in the music industry, plus dipping into other areas like fashion. I mean John Legend and Botticelli were paid to perform, I would imagine. Definitely Lana was. But Daily Mail has photos of all of these people arriving for the wedding like it’s a royalty wedding, and most are nobodies and showing their attire and It’s Kim’s D-list friends. I saw Common came. Laila Ali was there. A few others I can’t remember now John Legend;s wife was there. But most I didn’t know or knew because of her reality show. I thought this was the wedding of the century. LOL

    I’ve decided she isn’t happy I know she’s making those faces to seem like some sophisticated socialite, and that’s her take on how to look. LOL But I also think she really isn’t happy now that it is all happening, and the wedding is bringing it to a head, that it’s not that feeling like if it was Reggie. The one that got away. She should be beaming and unable to contain her happiness. Not so from what I’ve seen.

    • don't kill me i'm french says:

      Steve McQueen the director of 12 Years A Slave and Rick Rubin the famous music producer of Kanye,Johnny Cash,RHCP…were there

      • Intro Outro says:

        Steve McQueen was there??? And said the wedding was “wonderful” and “lots of fun”… Damn, he disappointed me =/

    • Josephine says:

      I could see her being quite unhappy. This is a peak for her. How is going to top this one to get more attention? The whole baby thing didn’t work the first time because everyone knew that she wouldn’t be a hands-on mom, and lots of people believe she used the first few months of the baby’s life to recover from a nose job. Plus, the A-list thing just did not happen.

      Really, what’s next for garnering attention? She doesn’t actually do anything.

  37. A Fan says:

    I usually hesitate to comment on any of the Kardashians…however…

    It feels like it is just. too. much.

    I mean, how much can one person have? Or get? It’s a strange combination of gluttony, perfection, shallowness, and desperation.

    [*When does life kick her in the ass?*]

    • Eléonore says:

      This is very well said. I can’t even find the words for this weird stange circus myself.

    • Josephine says:

      I very seriously doubt she has any real love or true happiness in her life. Can you imagine having to be obsessed with what you look like every minute of the day? And having no real way to feel good about yourself, like succeeding at a job, helping others, raising children, improving yourself? To me, her life is very sad and I can imagine quite lonely.

    • EscapedConvent says:

      I would say that life kicked her in the ass when she got that Devil Woman for a mother, & when she failed to develop a personality or brains. But that’s me.

    • vava says:

      Gluttony, shallowness, and desperation……….I can get behind that. But perfection? NO. This setting for the wedding is an insult to the beauty of Florence. The stupid wall of flowers was a real joke, if you ask me. Kim probably has no understanding or appreciation for the history of Florence, the legendary art there, the culture.

  38. angel says:

    why is her mouth open like that? :-/

    Well now that they have planned for the wedding and it’s over, I hope they planned for real life! The reality of being husband and wife is a greater challenge then the big party! God, help them! I mean that sincerely!

  39. Eléonore says:

    These two brainless idiots disgust me there is no other word. And those who disgust me even more are the ridiculous “fans” standing outside, waving at them, and comforting them in their idea that they are extremely relevant and better than anyone else. This circus is so sad, so so sad really.

  40. candybambi says:

    totaally agree a fan………

    tasteless trash why do we put up with all of this! there has to be a way to make them go away

  41. Hissyfit says:

    I’m so glad their wedding is over. Clooney’s “pr” wedding next!

  42. boo says:

    I don’t remember if anyone commented on this already but I do believe that Kim is at the “height” of what she deems an incredible life. Here she is getting married in Florence, in this over the top wedding with thousands upon thousands if not millions of dollars spent in all this lavishness. And yet, she looks so empty, I would be grinning from ear to ear if I was marrying the love of my life, the amount of wealth and people there wouldn’t even matter, I would be so joyful, and yet Kim looks totally disconnected, vacant and I’ll say unhappy and even sad. We’re going to see in the coming years how compatible these two are. I see Kanye totally overpowering Kim with his antics and demands, this does not bode well.

    • melain says:

      I think you’re right. I also think that is the saddest thing about Kris Kardashian. She’s leading/pushing her family down a path that actually leads somewhere…but none of them seem to care where. But she does it as if there will be no consequences and seemingly without concern. I actually remember Nicole Brown when I think of Kim’s future with the volatile Kanye. But perhaps neither of Kim’s parents were /are concerned about karma.

    • vava says:

      yeah, Kanye will take the upper hand and after awhile it’s going to get to Kim. Their marriage is doomed, IMO. Maybe they’ll just live separate lives? I’d be surprised if she gets pregnant again, that last one was very hard on her – and us……….we had to see the photos of her swollen feet in sandals!

  43. The Original G says:

    A lame TV show, a tax write-off and the nadir of reality television.

  44. Suki2 says:

    Disappointed by the all-Kimye-all-the-time postings here this weekend. Time to expand my gossip horizon I guess…

  45. poof says:

    Can she not keep her mouth closed? It’s always hanging open.

  46. MacScore says:

    I am so ooooo late to the party. A friend posted to me Andre Leon Talley’s packing list, to Paris, to the “wedding”… so Vogue, too, was throwing us all off?
    Frankly, dahlings, I couldn’t give a shit. There is nothing of any moral value whatsoever in anything they do. I’m signing off to do something worthwhile (teaching; lending money to friends in need; charity work; fighting against corporate greed…). Sorry, have wasted too much time already commenting.
    Good bye.

  47. G. says:

    I happen to live here in Florence and they didn’t even invite me. How rude.

  48. Damaris says:

    Kanye loves Kim more than Kim loves Kanye. I get that vibe from all the photos and interviews shoved down my throat when I flip a page or turn a channel. She loves the fact that Kanye is in love with her.

  49. sandra says:

    NY Post – priceless

  50. Madpoe says:

    Ugh times infinity!

  51. jane16 says:

    Guys, who is Rachel Roy? I noticed on the last thread people keep mentioning her as a reason for Beyonce not to attend (Yay Bey!). I’ve never heard of her.

  52. Baskingshark says:

    Once upon a time Givenchy was synonymous with Audrey Hepburn. Now they dress this talent-free, plastic-faced famewhore and her egomaniac husband. That is just depressing.

  53. John says:

    ” Screams from the haters, got a nice ring to it…” – Kanye West

  54. TheOriginalPuppy says:

    Yay. Kanye and Kim are America’s royal couple! Take that William and Kate! 🙂

  55. islandwalker says:

    Geebus, her face looks molded out of teflon. What a sad, empty looking woman.

    ..so Hobbit and Gayfish got married..Do you think it will be on National Geography channel? Maybe as a part of “extinct fauna” series?
