The
Wedding of Donald Trump & Melania Knauss
Cuisine: Master
chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten created culinary masterpieces such
as filet mignon with peppercorn sauce and Lobster Daikon roll
with rosemary ginger sauce for the Trump nuptials. The world-renowned
restauranteur offers pearls of wisdom in three books: Simple
To Spectacular: How To Take One Basic Recipe To Four Levels of
Sophistication, Jean-Georges: Cooking At Home With A Four-Star
Chef and Simple Cuisine.
Event Planner:
Preston Bailey, who helped to construct fairytale weddings
and receptions for Liza Minnelli and Melissa Rivers, created a
suitably regal ambiance for the Trump nuptials. Gather inspiration
from New York's premiere event planner with Bailey's two books,
Preston Bailey's Design For Entertaining and Preston
Bailey's Fantasy Weddings.
Guest's Attire:
Several attendees of the society wedding of the year purchased
their apparel at Alpark, The Salon, which offers a wide range
of couture and pret-a-porter designs.
Gowns: John
Galliano may have brought a more modern edge to the house of Dior,
but when it came time to create the wedding attire for former
model Melania Knauss the designer turned to style icon Jackie
Kennedy for inspiration. Christian Dior offers haute couture and
pret-a-porter clothing, as well as jewelry, fragrances, and skin
care products.
Melania's assistant
wore a Vera Wang gown [see
how to buy a Vera Wang wedding dress on eBay], and the
bride donned a tulle confection by the wedding designer to the
stars for the reception. Having clothed such celebrity brides
as Jessica Simpson and Sarah Michelle Gellar, Vera Wang has become
a bridal empire, and offers a range of jewelry, eyewear and footwear.
Groom's Attire:
Known for his sense of style, Donald Trump relied on a long-time
favorite design house, Brioni, for his white tie and cummerbund.
The Rings: When
searching for the perfect engagement and wedding ring the groom
turned to Graff jewelers, who have supplied flawless, hand-crafted
diamond accessories since 1974.
Lingerie: This
Bologna-born company has provided sexy yet sophisticated intimate
apparel for the world's most fashionable women since the 1950's.
Along with an array of panties, bras, and camisoles, La Perla
also offers swimwear, ready to wear, perfume, and CDs designed
for romantic revelry.
Music: Although
the forty-piece ensemble usually get people "In The Mood"
with songs from the Big Band era, The Michael Rose Orchestra performed
classical music in the gold-laden ballroom of Mar-A-Lago. The
Palm Beach band is available for bookings in the South Florida
region, and a variety of CDs are offered on the Michael Rose Orchestra
website.
Registries: What do you buy for the couple who has everything? Although guests
were faced with this daunting dilemma, Tiffany & Co., Bergdorf
Goodman and Frette Linens, where the bride and groom registered,
provided a range of tantalizing products from which to choose.
