Guests at the wedding included Sting and wife Trudie Styler, who introduced Ritchie and Madonna at a dinner party, Rupert Everett and Gwyneth Paltrow.

At the age of 42, Madonna Louise Ciccone, married Guy Ritchie on 22nd of December 2000 in a fairytale wedding dress designed by Madonna's good friend and maid of honor, Stella McCartney (daughter of Beatle Paul McCartney.)

This queen of pop married her 10 year junior fairytale prince and world renowned British director at the Skibo Scottish castle after being turned down to use Princess Diana's royal estate.

Best happy modern wedding dress

Just look at their big smiles and how happy they look together and you'll know that this gay and happy couple more than deserve the award for best happy modern wedding dress.

Both talk show host Ellen DeGeneres and actress Portia de Rossi wore Zac Posen for their modest backyard wedding.

Portia's edgy yet classic bridal gown with a backless top with a deep v-neck front and a floor-length pink satin tulle skirt resembles Marilyn Monroe's most famous 1955 Travilla white cocktail dress. 

Ellen who has never been spotted with a skirt or a dress, opted for a chic and dressy layered look over her white pants with a sheer white shirt and white vest.

Best politically correct wedding dress

This award goes to no other than Chelsea Clinton, the former first daughter when she chose to marry in a stunning and classic Vera Wang wedding dress. In her wedding to Marc Mezvinsky on July 31, 2010, Chelsea wore a strapless ivory gown with a swirling ballgown skirt of laser cut organza.  

The simplicity of the beading at the waist, frothy skirt and beautiful white rose bouquet was beautiful. This strapless super princessy dress allowed Chelea to confidently show off her slim body structure beautiful shoulders,  toned arms and waist. 

The Times speculates that the Vera gown cost $20,000.

For the reception Chelsea changed into a Grecian-inspired Vera Wang number, with black ribbon belt and criss-cross strap detailing across the back. 

Best elegant wedding dress

In the plastic world of hollywood where attention seeking celebrities are baring tons of skin whenever they can for PR buzz, Ivanka’s modest lace-covered gown shines with its elegant design.

Ivanka Trump’s handmade lace A-line Vera Wang wedding dress was inspired by Grace Kelly’s classic gown and showcased a more slightly covered-up style, with an illusion lacy neck, in respect for her traditional Orthodox Jewish ceremony.

Best colored wedding dress

Gwen rocked the Bubble Pop Electric look in this pink and white rock-star wedding dress at her 2002 wedding to heart thrub rocker Gavin Rossdale. For something old she topped this wedding dress with an antique lace veil.

Christian Dior's fashion rockstar designer, John Galliano, designed this punky popstar turned fashion designer's award winning assymetrical spray painted gown. This work of art  represented Gwen's traditional and spunky personality in its girlie pink and yet rockstar fashion forward design.

Following tradition on her wedding day, next to her bouquet of phalaenopsis orchids Gwen carried rosary beads and her grandmother’s Catholic prayer book.

Good to know: you can check out this dress at the Victoria and Albert museum in London from up close. 

Best hippie wedding dress

Interesting to know:  For the reception, Milla changed into a 60's-style, bell-sleeved mini dress, her own design.

For her second wedding On 22 August 2009 to director Paul Anderson, Milla Jovovich wore a sheath gown by Temperley London. The “Long Muse" dress had a silk satin lining and embellished gold V-neckline. This model/actress/fashion designer paired the floor length and draping sleeved dress with a gold sheath headpiece and short tulle veil. She achieved an elegant hippie look by letting her long brown curls flow as did her long dress and accessorizing her hair with small gold daisy-shaped flowers.

Talking about flowers, the flower girl was their 20-month-old daughter, Ever.

Best funky wedding dress

Supermodel Stephanie Seymore’s iconic rock & roll wedding gown in Guns & Roses November Rain video in June of 1992 was designed by Carmela Sutera and was worth $8,000. This rock-star funky wedding dress is short in the front and long in the back. 

A high-low wedding gown is great compromise between sexy rock-star and classic style for any beautiful long-legged bride. Here's how singer Lisa Loeb pulled off this look with a longer short front skirt when she wed music supervisor Roey Hershkovitz in a strapless pink-hued Amsale Blue Label wedding gown with a bubble hem skirt on January 31, 2009.

Inside scoop: To express her fashionably free and trendsetting personality, model Amber Rose is reportedly also keeping a close eye on this exemplary Guns & Roses funky wedding gown for her upcoming wedding to rapper to Wiz Kalifia.

Best sexy wedding dress

Elizabeth Hurley wore a sexy low-cut, full-length white Versace wedding gown with a cascade of ruffles for the skirt when she wed Indian businessman Arun Nayar in England on March 3, 2007.

This classic V-neck design is very flattering for this sexy model's straight body shape with similar bust and hip curves. Big busted brides can also pull this look with the support of the two straps holding the bust region in shape. 

A simple tulle veil matches best with this sexy voluminous multi layered wedding gown.

Best burlesque wedding dress

On December 3, 2005 burlesque bombshell Dita Von Teese married rocker Marilyn Manson wearing a purple silk taffeta Vivienne Westwood gown, Christian Louboutin shoes and a tri-corn hat.

This almost fairtale-like princessy dress has the traditional off the shoulder neckline and poufy skirt. What I love about this dress is the almost metalic purple-blue color tinted taffeta fabric that represents Dita's shiny and multi-colored personality. Dita shows her sexy and feminist personality by highlighting her cleavage with the folds of the skirt wrapping around her tiny waist.

The tri-corn hat by milliner Stephen Jones paired with the large ball gown skirt, takes me back to 1930's fashion in the Gone with the wind movie.

Best mermaid fairytale wedding dress

For supermodel Coco Rocha’s picturesque fairytale wedding to interior designer, James Conran, on 9 June 2010, Zac Posen designed an extreme mermaid bridal gown with lots of tulle and lace. This unique mermaid tail design flares out assymetrically, in the front from below her knees and in the back from below her hips, to form the long multi-layered train behind her dress.  

The form defining straight shape of this open neck and back of this dress has been elegantly tied into the pouf of the tail with the small poufy cap sleeves.

This fairytale wedding dress look flatters the slim figured, small busted and model tall body shapes.

Best dream sweatheart wedding dress

Designer Reem Acra created a strapless wedding gown with a sweetheart neckline and feathered skirt for Jenna Dewan’s wedding to Channing Tatum, People's Sexiest Man Alive and GQ'S Man of the Year 2012. The nuptials of these former Step Up stars and love birds, took place on 11 July 2009 at Church Estate Vineyards.

Jenna’s small waisted gown burst into a an A-line feathered skirt with a long train. She showed off her slim body and sexy cleavage in the sweet heart-shaped neckline by pulling her hair back and tying it into a loose bun. She accessorized this loud and dazzling gown with a long veil, Neil Lane earrings and a bouquet of white and pink roses.
