revealed a hint of decolletage. A small bouquet of ivory roses and a veil
attached to her brunette locks, which were worn natural for the nuptials,
completed the look. Vera Wang also received the
honor of constructing five attendants dresses in a shade of deep violet
with low cut necklines to adorn former "Baywatch" babe Angelica
Bridges and Playboy Playmates Brande Roderick and Lisa Dergan. Four groomsmen, the best man
and the groom mirrored each other in dark grey suits, with the baseball
hero accenting his attire with a silver tie and a pink rose for his lapel. The Reception: Luxury

private retreat where the bride and groom lost themselves in the magic
of the moment as they danced to Etta James' "At Last" while
attendees dined on seafood platters amid the seashell ornamentation and
displays of roses and orchids which perfumed the ballroom of the Vanderbilt
Mansion. The Honeymoon: The newlyweds celebrated their union at the Mandarin Oriental in Miami, a five star hotel with "The Best Spa in the USA," according to Travel and Leisure Magazine. Read about other celebrity weddings; search by the celebrity's last name: |
