Style Guide: The 7 Best Celebrity Wedding Dresses

Guest Post By Sarrah Beaumont

There is always one gorgeous wedding dress that stands out nearly every year, and more often than not, it is always worn by a celebrity. After all, who would best represent glitz and glamour than a true blue celeb? In case you too want to shine as bright as they do on your wedding day, here are some celebrity wedding dresses from recent years that have caused quite a stir – for their aesthetic features as well as monetary value.


1. Renee Zellweger

Although her marriage to country singer Kenney Chesney was short-lived, Renee Zellweger's bamboo twill, ivory-colored, form fitting strapless wedding dress went down in history as one of the best celebrity wedding dresses ever. The wedding dress perfectly complimented their beach-themed wedding. Of course, it does help that Renee has a body to die for.


2. Sandra Bullock

Sandra Bullock looked absolutely stunning in her Angel Sanchez-designed strapless, antique white lace dress with ruffled bodice. Although her wedding was anything but conventional, Sandra was the very epitome of a blushing bride that day.


3. Melania Trump

You may have heard the rumors that Melania Knauss' wedding dress designed by Christian Dior cost a whooping $100,00! The form-fitting, white strapless dress donned by the third “Mrs. Trump” is almost history-book worth, with its stunning design and 16-foot train that weighed 50 lbs. Imagine walking around in that. Oh well, you shouldn’t be surprised. Expect over the top – and nothing else – from a Trump.


4. Tori Spelling

The late Aaron Spelling’s beloved daughter, Tori Spelling, wore a form fitting wedding dress sprinkled with crystal beads. It was the perfect traditional wedding dress that every woman would surely envy. Of course, the middle-class bride should do away with all the crystals and look for some other substitute to sprinkle her dress with.


5. Britney Spears

Nearly everyone hated everything about Britney Spears and Kevin Federline wedding. The groom, most especially. It came as an awful surprise to the rest of the world. However, Britney’s gorgeous Monique Lhuiller wedding gown saved the occasion. Britney Spears wore a $26,000 wedding dress with a hand sewn train and cathedral length veil.


6. Demi Moore

Demi Moore did not look her age when she became Mr. Ashton Kutcher. Her floor-length gown by by Jeanne Lanvin was sheath-style, topped with jeweled shoulder straps. Her dress was simple, lovely and one of a kind. Just like Demi herself.


7. Jennifer Aniston

Jennifer Aniston’s now-defunct marriage to Brad Pitt was a wedding that stirred the media for weeks. No, it was not about the ceremony itself, it was all about the bride and her to-die-for wedding dress. Jennifer’s halter style, white tulle dress, adorned with tiny pearls was designed by Lawrence Steele. It was the perfect wedding dress to define a once-perfect marriage.


You don’t need to splurge too much to get the look of a celeb on your wedding day. If you want to follow these celebrities wedding dresses, make sure to seek your designer’s aid in putting together fabric and materials that aren’t as costly as the real wedding dresses.

Denim Dresses

There are plenty of brides who shy away from the traditional white wedding. Theme weddings are becoming more and more popular, with some couples choosing some very unusual themes.  I generally love theme weddings because they tend to look great, and have a special atmosphere, especially if the theme chosen represents a shared interest.

If you are your partner share an interest in the wild west, line dancing or wrangling, then how about a denim wedding dress for your western themed wedding?  Sat'n Spurs not only have a full selection of denim wedding dresses, but they also have a range of western gifts for your guests, cowboy cake toppers and more touches to help you complete the look.

Maria La Fuente

Maria La Fuente is the designer behind this gorgeous and exuberant gown.  Overflowing with celebrity style, her gowns show her commitment and passion for design, creating unusual gowns that test the boundaries of the wedding dress genre.

Her designs are exquisitely feminine, so it's no suprise that her latest collection 'Mantis' is inspired by the 'color combinations, symmetry and fragile texture' of butterfly wings.   La Fuente says that she wanted to create a look of 'risky silhouettes and organic shapes.' 

Just one of many European designers who are the fashion secrets of the stars, she has been featured in hundreds of glossy fashion magazines, including several appearances in Vogue.  Celebrity fans include Shannon Elizabeth (American Pie), Marla Sokolov (The Practice) and Debra Messing (Will and Grace).

Red Shoes for Red Carpet Brides

January usually sees the start of Oscars hype, and all eyes at The Wedding Fashion Files turn toward the stars and which designers they will be wearing down the red carpet. All of that red has gone to my head, and tainted my vision. Not that I mind of course, as it makes a nice bright addition to the dreary grey landscape of winter.

Many brides choose to add a touch of red to their winter wedding, and this design from Alfred Angelo is one of their best sellers. Although the sash is available in over 30 colors, the deep red outsells them all.

But I do love a bride who dares to be a little bit different, and I love the recent trend of wearing red shoes. The color adds a dash of fun and festivity to a wedding outfit, and says a lot about the bride. You have to be very comfortable with who you are to take such a bold departure from tradition, and in my experience, the brightness of the shoes always matches the brightness of the bride's smile. You won't find a serious, solemn bride wearing these shoes, no sir!

Red shoes are strictly for brides who have learned to love, laugh and learn in life and above all, have fun.
