Drew Barrymore and her fiance of five months, art dealer Will Kopelman, tied the knot in an intimate ceremony Saturday at her Montecito, Calif., home. It was “a classic, simple, very pretty, garden-inspired wedding ,” a source said. Guests included Jimmy Fallon and wife Nancy Juvonen, Busy Philipps and her husband, and Cameron Diaz, who were also present for the rehearsal dinner. The actress, who is pregnant with her first child, and was spotted trying on wedding veils at an NYC bridal shop in May, donned a Chanel gown Saturday. Fittingly, her new husband’s father, Arie Kopelman, is a former Chanel CEO. As the newlyweds look ahead to impending parenthood, friends say the former L.A. wild child, who is twice divorced, is eager to begin her life as a mom. Here’s wishing them the best of luck, and congratulations! [Photo: WENN.com]
Holly Durst and Blake Julian shocked the cast of ABC’s Bachelor Pad by getting together – and engaged – last season. But there love was undeniably real. On Saturday, the Bachelor and Bachelorette cast members got married! Durst and Julian tied the knot in front of 115 guests, including former reality TV co-stars Erica Rose, Ella Nolan, Justin “Rated R” Rego and West Lee. We’re guessing Michael Stagliano, who was actively trying to win Holly back on the show when she got engaged to Blake , was probably not on hand. The newlyweds wore this to mark the occasion: Just kidding. These are promotional pics from Bachelor Pad 2 . “I couldn’t be happier,” Durst said. “Blake is my best friend and now my husband. I have a beautiful future ahead of me … I love him with all my heart!” The Ohio-bred children’s author said “I do” to Blake at The Cliffs country club in South Carolina, walking down the aisle in an Alfred Angelo wedding gown. “I’m really excited and really happy about the rest of my life,” the newlywed said prior to the big day. “I can’t wait for that to begin. I’m not nervous at all.” Congratulations to the couple and good luck!
Ashley Biden, the daughter of U.S. Vice President Joe Biden, got married on Saturday to Philadelphia surgeon Howard Krein before more than 200 friends and family. The couple wed at the steepled St. Joseph on the Brandywine Roman Catholic Church, in Greenville, Delaware. It’s the same church where she was baptized. The ceremony combined the bride’s Catholic traditions and the groom’s Jewish ones. Afterward, the reception took place at the Biden family’s lakeside home in Wilmington, Del., for a reception and dinner served family-style in the backyard. The Vice President and his wife, Jill Biden, re-sodded the property and planted special fast-growing vines up the latticework around the party tent. Joe Biden escorted the bride , who wore Vera Wang, down the aisle and had prepared to be emotional about giving away the youngest of his three children. “I kept telling Ash, we’ve got to open up the church and practice walking up and down the aisle so I can handle it,” the V.P. said last week. He reminisced about the last time he saw Ashley Biden in a veil – at her First Communion. “I think to myself, aw, God, my little girl! This can’t have passed so quick.” Krein, 45, surprised his bride Biden, 30, on Saturday with their honeymoon destination, a family source said. They will make their home in Philadelphia. Ashley is a Delaware state social worker who works with troubled children. She met Howard in 2010, after meeting through Beau Biden, her older brother. Howard Krein proposed last October, at sunset on a cliff in Big Sur, Calif. – but not before getting “Pop’s” permission first, said the elder Biden. ” This is the right guy,” the V.P. said. “And he’s getting a helluva woman.” And a helluva father-in-law. Congrats to the whole family!
