Incredible steampunk wedding cake

Steven Hodson — Sat, 10 Oct 2009 22:30:00 +0000

This is outrageously incredible and has to be one of the coolest wedding cakes I have seen.

The cake was created by Mike’s Amazing Cakes in Seattle for a couple by the name of Liz and Austin

Liz and Austin’s steampunked wedding cake. The metallic gears, doors, rivets, and panels were all made of fondant and were entirely edible. This is probably the baddest-ass wedding cake you will ever see. Respect.

Best part: the cake tasted just as decadent as it looked! I had a slice of the lemon layer after photographing it.

Khloe Kardashian’s Mother Thinks Her Last-Minute Wedding Is “Romantic”

AHN — Wed, 23 Sep 2009 20:45:18 +0000

Khloe Kardashian’s mother thinks her last-minute wedding is “romantic.” The socialite – who plans to tie the knot with basketball star Lamar Odom this weekend after a month-long relationship – has been praised by her mother Kris Jenner for deciding to wed after a whirlwind romance.

Kris said: “I just go by what I feel. If you meet somebody, you just know.”

“You know, that’s how Bruce Jenner and I met. We met, and we were married four months later. Isn’t that romantic?”

Because they are arranging the ceremony at such short notice, Khloe, 25, doesn’t even have an engagement ring.

Kris said: “I haven’t seen an engagement ring, not around here. I’ve been looking.”

Meanwhile, the 53-year-old businesswoman-turned-TV star revealed the bride-to-be will be given away by her stepfather Bruce.

Kris – who shot to fame when her family appeared in the U.S. reality show “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” – quipped to Ryan Seacrest on his KIIS-FM radio show: “Bruce will give her away. He’ll send her right back down to San Diego to live with my mother!”

“It’s tough trying to keep up with the Kardashians.”

Khloe’s father Robert Kardashian – who sadly died in September 2003 – got divorced from Kris in 1989, and she married Olympian Bruce in 1991.

Khloe and Lamar, 29, are currently finalizing plans for their upcoming nuptials at music manager Irving Azoff’s Los Angeles home on Sunday.

Zooey Deschanel Got Married

Zooey Deschanel, the ‘(500) Days of Summer’ actress tied the knot with Death Cab for Cutie frontman Ben Gibbard at a private ceremony near Seattle, Washington, on Saturday, September 19.

Only close friends – including her ‘Your Highness’ co-stars James Franco and Natalie Portman – and family were present and the couple are thought to have now flown out to their secret honeymoon location.

The couple got engaged in December 2008 after dating for nearly a year, with a friend saying at the time, “Zooey was swept off her feet, and Ben is so excited.”

It was recently revealed the actress had been taking ballet classes to slim down before the forthcoming nuptials.

A source said, “Zooey has been taking classes at Pure Barre in Los Angeles to prepare for the wedding. She has been doing workouts which are based on ballet barre work back-to-back.

“She’ll take a class, wait 15 minutes, and then take another.”

PA woman in love with, marrying carnival ride

Kim LaCapria — Thu, 06 Aug 2009 21:45:12 +0000

Ever devoted, Amy Wolfe, 33, fell for “him” when she was 13.

(How she determined gender remains a mystery to me.) Amy “rides” the ride she intends to marry about 300 times a year, and lets slip that the operators give her special concessions, keeping the attraction in operation a few times after closing so she can have time alone with her man. After years of courtship and over 3,000 goes, Amy wants to make him an honest machine.

Before she announced her unconventional marriage plans, Amy was featured in a documentary titled Objectum Sexuality: When Relationships With Inanimate Objects Become Intimate. Amy contends that she doesn’t suffer from a fetish, but rather, a condition of the same name. (Objectum Sexuality.) And she insists her feeling for the ride are not solely sexual in nature- although she does keep a picture of him taped to her ceiling so she can deal with that part of their relationship without being “indecent” in public.

UK newspaper The Sun quotes Amy on her dedication to her man:

“I know people think it’s weird but I love him as much as women love their husbands and know we’ll be together forever.”

“I wasn’t freaked out as it just felt so natural but I didn’t tell anyone about it because I knew it wasn’t ‘normal’ to have feelings for a fairground ride.

“While all my friends were going through their teens having crushes on boys, I was still thinking about 1001.”

For those of you who just can’t “get it” without a visual, Jezebel has some clips up of Amy spending time with 1001 and describing what drew her to him, including that he’s ”…so noble, so proud, so strong… I love him as a mate… I love him for the elegant lines of his gondola.” Sister, I know the feeling.

After the wedding, Amy- an unemployed church organist and totally not a lesbian- will be taking the surname Weber, after the manufacturer of the ride.

JK Wedding Entrance Dance video is cute, goes viral

Kim LaCapria — Thu, 23 Jul 2009 21:05:26 +0000

A video of a bunch of unrestrained and not really very choreographed dancing during the beginning of a church wedding has gotten a bit of attention on the intertubes this week.

A lot of the commenters didn’t like the irreverance. (Dancing? In a church? OMG!) But frankly, the church is the most painfully boring part of the painfully boring institution that is weddings and there’s only booze if you’re Catholic, and even then everyone backwashed in it. Ew. (For the record I am Catholic, so I am totally allowed to say that.)

So I say fair play to them- Jill and Kevin, I hope you have many happy dancy years ahead of you not taking silly things too seriously. And I hope Wrigley’s sends you all a nice check.

Definitely not your typical white weddings

When we talk about weddings we generally think of white and virginal – okay maybe not so much that any more – and even though weddings have changed over the years I don’t think that black and reds are commonly thought of as wedding color.

Unless you’re into the whole Goth culture like these folks

Even the flower girls get into the act

Then there’s the wedding cake getting a Goth make over

Eric Winter and Roselyn Sanchez Got Hitched

Meieli Sawyer — Sun, 30 Nov 2008 21:04:13 +0000

Eric Winter of Brothers & Sisters and Days of Our Lives and Roselyn Sanchez (Without a Trace) have gotten hitched in Puerto Rico. OK! reported exclusively that they said “I Do” in a private ceremony of 250 on Saturday. Why P.R.? OK! explains:

The Caribbean locale holds special significance for the newlyweds — not only was Roselyn born in San Juan, but the couple got engaged while on a holiday trip to Puerto Rico last year.

Even Roselyn’s Hollywood twin was in attendance–Eva Longoria was spotted at the star-studded ceremony held at San Cristobal. Roselyn’s already got a 4.3 carat ring after their engagement last year, and it doesn’t sound like there were any Elizabeth Hurley types to steal her thunder at the lavish affair. Sounds peachy to me! Congrats to the happy couple.

All Right, Who Did Mariah Have to Pay?

Meieli Sawyer — Thu, 08 May 2008 00:46:13 +0000

Usually celebs get heaps of cash for selling all their private wedding pics, but there’s something amiss about this whole hoopla surrounding Mariah’s marriage to Nick Cannon. Yes, we get it. It was a surprise. But what was the deal with Oprah today? She basically had a mini meltdown on her show about Mariah’s “secrets” and her “Mrs. Cannon” tattoo, complete with intense finger shaking and the skinny from Gail via satellite.

Okay, Oprah, the earth still turns. Mariah’s married, okay? (Although for how long is another question entirely.) Plus we can’t forget about the slideshow of all the “Exclusive” photos splashed across People (available Friday, everyone!). Ew.

The good news is that Vibe mag is probably raking in runoff sales right now, even if they did scoop the wrong story.
