Kim Kardashian and Kanye West Gets Married in Italy; Rob Kardashian Skips Wedding!

May 26, 2014GWL Staff


Will this marriage last for 72 days or until death do them part?

"Keeping Up With The Kardashian" reality star Kim Kardashian and fiance Kanye West officially tied the knot at Fort di Belvedere in Florence, Italy.

People's magazine reported Kardashian was walked down the aisle by her step-father Bruce Jenner while Andrea Bocelli sang "Con te Partiró". Kim's mom, Kris Jenner, was also seen in the front row, in tears, during the wedding ceremony on Saturday evening.

Guests also reportedly broke into applause twice during the ceremony: first when the couple kissed and when the newlyweds were presented. The event was filmed for the Kardashian's upcoming new season of her family's hit reality TV show.


According to E! News, later that evening, hundreds of guests were invited to the Palace of Versailles for a private tour and a surprise performance by Lana Del Ray. North West parents then flew guests to Florence for the wedding ceremony.

FYI: Kim's custom Givenchy Couture wedding gown was stunningly gorgeous, no one could have expected her to wear only one designer creation on her big day. “Kim just changed dresses,” Kim's new husband told the assembled guests.

“I just had to stop things for my girl, Kim. Changed dresses … uh oh!”, the rapper added.

A source exclusively told GWL Mag that one of the many A-listers at KimYe's wedding was jewelry designer, Lorraine Schwartz. The couple exchanged custom-made rings by the famed ring designer.

Kim’s ring was handmade with diamonds to perfectly match her other wedding jewelry, reports E! News. Meanwhile, Kanye’s band was handmade gold.

The pre-wedding first capped off a weekend of extravagant European affairs, starting with a brunch hosted by fashion designer Valentino in Paris on Friday.

There's also some buzz as to why Kim's younger brother Rob Kardashian decided to skip his sister's lavish wedding. A gossip site reports that the 27-year-old reality star had called the ceremony, "bullsh*t," and says he doesn't feel like he "fit in" with his family.

Via People's Magazine:
"Rob did come to Paris but skipped the rehearsal dinner at Versailles and the wedding," says an inside source. "He just didn't want to see a bunch of people both nights and really just is not feeling like himself."
"He is really overweight and having a hard time with it," explains the source. Some reports cite a big family fight as the catalyst for the 27-year-old skipping the nuptials but says the source, "There was no big fight between him and Kim. This was just a decision he made."
The sock designer arrived in L.A. on Saturday night just as his sister walked down the aisle.



Celebuzz reports that Rob wasn't the only one who missed the nuptials as Kim's step-brother Brody Jenner skipped the wedding for a DJ gig, and Beyonce and Jay-Z opted to relax in the Hamptons.
