Poker of famous weddings and wedding dresses, between romantic and minimal chic looks

Streams of celebs were spotted at every latitude and longitude this past weekend, high-level guests positioned in different corners of the world with a wedding invitation in their designer clutch. Well four weddings, in fact (and fortunately no funeral!), they were celebrated in the weekend just ended which gave days of bright sunshine in the locations (all beautiful) chosen for the various happy stellar events.

Let’s go in order: well two vip brides who have chosen for the very romantic Venice to crown the dream of love. The first is Gèraldine Guyot, entrepreneur and founder of the D’Estrëe brand, married to Alexandre Arnault, executive vice president of Tiffany & Co and son of Bernard, the richest man in the world and owner of the LVMH group, a deluxe company of which Bvlgari belongs, Louis Vuitton, Dior among others. The two said for the second time “yes, I do” (they had already married in Paris last July and, for the occasion, she wore a cream-colored JW Anderson dress with ankle-length skirt and balloon sleeves) , choosing for the encore the enchanting setting of the Jesuit Church.

For this second ceremony the bride opted for a princely white dress formed by with a high-waisted taffeta maxi skirt and a lace bustier with long sleeves and a high collar. Elegant and bon ton, Gèraldine gathered her hair and hooked a very long veil to her hairstyle.

Worth mentioning is the list of guests of the jet set who flew to the Lagoon for the occasion: from Beyoncé and Jay-Z to Pharrell Williams and again Jaki Elkann, Diego Della Valle, Roger Federer and Maria Grazia Chiuri, among others

The other Venetian wedding instead took place in the magical church of San Pantalon between the co-founder and CEO of the ViBi Venezia footwear brand, Vera Arrivabene (daughter of Bianca di Savoia Aosta and Count Gilberto Arrivabene Valenti Gonzaga) and Count Briano Martinoni Caleppio. The bride wore Prada arriving in a gondola with his father. The dress was chic and refined, very classic with the square neckline and buttons on the long sleeves, with a cape that started with two bows pinned on the shoulders and that replaced the train of the veil, while in her hair Vera wore an elegant chaplet. After the rings ceremony, the couple practically celebrated at home. The two live in the Aman Hotel, a historic building also chosen by George Clooney for the reception with Amal.

Another exchange of rings, this time on the French Riviera. Afef Jnenin she preferred the vintage and chic atmosphere of Saint Tropez, in fact, to get married for the fourth time. The groom, Alessandro Del Bono, CEO of Mediolanum Farmaceutici, appears radiant in the only shot posted by the former model on social media to announce the happy event. She too is radiant wrapped in a simple ivory silk sleeveless dress long to the feet and a crown of flowers between the curly hair.

Last but not least, marriage between Jennifer Gates, daughter of Bill, and riding champion Nayel Nassar. Three hundred guests (including Barack and Michelle Obama) and a two million dollar budget for the sumptuous wedding celebrated last Saturday in North Salem, New York, in a riding stable transformed into a dream location. Against the backdrop of a lush garden the bride stood out with the most romantic and classic of wedding dresses: ivory white, A-line, long tail, with lace bodice and long, wide tulle skirt. Naturally branded and personalized with French macrame lace applied by hand to the bodice by the queen of the designer bride-to-be, Vera Wang. A true fairy tale. And they all lived happy, stylish, rich and content.
