Kim Kardashian's lavish wedding and the party shut down by authorities

Monday, August 22, 2011

Kim Kardashian's lavish wedding to professional basketball star Kris Humphries on Sunday was by all accounts an epic event. But the bride's celebrity status couldn't stop the raucous wedding after-party being shut down by authorities.

The sunset wedding ceremony was held at an exclusive private estate in Montecito, California.

The 440 guests included former Spice Girl Melanie B, Eva Longoria, Lindsay Lohan, Humphries's basketball teammates, Kardashian's sisters Khloe, Kourtney, brother Robert, half-brother Brody with girlfriend Avril Lavigne, half-sisters Kylie and Kendall, mother Kris Jenner and stepfather Bruce.

E! — the network behind the Kardashians' reality shows — revealed that 30-year-old Kim's dress was a floor-length ivory creation by designer Vera Wang, with an embellished bodice and train. The bridal party and guests were all requested to wear either black or white.

The joint maids of honour Khloe and Kourtney and bridesmaids Kylie and Kendall donned ivory dresses said to be inspired by Pippa Middleton's long, sleek dress. Kim's mum, Kris Jenner, 55, looked like a bride in her own Vera Wang-designed dress.

After the 30-minute ceremony the wedding reception was held in a separate marquee where guests enjoyed the wedding feast and a wedding cake that Us Weekly reported was taller than 5ft 2.5 inch Kim.

Kim and Kris had expected the festivities to be an all-night celebration at the luxury estate they had hired out for the wedding.

But the after-party drama unfolded just after midnight when the local fire marshal ordered they switch off their music due to noise complaints from neighbours, reported E! news.

The reported $US1.5 million that Kim will be paid by US People magazine for the exclusive rights for the wedding photographs should soften any after-party disappointment.

Kim will also be paid for the television footage, which will be aired by the E! network in a two-part special — watch the preview clip at the top of this page.

Who really cares! If all of you had lots of money I'm sure you would indulge in it. It's peoples decision what they do with their own money. If you're all so concerned how about it get yourself self there and work real hard to become a millionaire then you can donate to charity as much as you want. Don't any of you people out there have lives?!!!?? People like you don't get anywhere in life cos all you do is sticky beak into other peoples business. How would you like to be constantly picked on for how you live your life? No wonder so many celebrities end up screwed-up cos of all you mean picky people, no one is perfect! Wake up, grow a back-bone. Seriously.
Well said Selinarra, Melbourne! I have no idea who Kim is but trashing anyone just for the sake of comparrison and dare I say it, jealousy? is pretty low.
If either of you bothered to watch the show or at least knew a bit of information about the family, you would know that they ALL donate to charities and often help those who are in need. In fact, Kim donates 10 percent of her earnings to charity each year. Do you donate 10 percent of your earnings to charity each year? While I personally don't agree with some of the shoots e.g. the playboy shoot Kim does, she obviously has worked extremely hard to get to where she is today. If people and companies are willing to pay for her wedding and the video and photos, why on earth would she say no? You're telling me if someone offered to give you money for you're wedding you'd say no? These 'magazines that are hungry for more sales and more money' are fed by people like who you are interested and read the articles. Which you obviously are considering you have read this article. At least she gives a substantial amount of money to those in need... Something I highly doubt you do.
What a waste of money fuelled by a stupid reality show and magazines hungry for more sales and more money. Could help a lot of people in the world who are starving with a few million. Doubt if this reality wedding will last a year.
i honestly think Angelina Jolie is much better looking.at least she is over seas doing world famine and helping the starving kids.unlike this spoil brat who speaks to her mum like trash with her sisters and thinks it OK.go and help the starving nations Kim,you mite then respect life a little more!!!
