Introducing Mrs Brad Pitt (Finally!)

So despite Brangelina being a 'thing' for God knows how many years, the superstar couple weren't actually married. Who knew?

The pair tied the knot, diminishing all rumors of divorce and break ups, in France, on the 23rd of August, with just 22 guests to witness 'Brangelina' finally tying the knot.

The pair acknowledged just how important it was that the day was entirely family orientated in a joint statement, saying "It was such a special day to share with our children and a very happy time for our family". And indeed the children did get to share the couple's special day in great depth. The venue for the special occasion was the family's home in France, Chateau Miraval- familiar and comforting for the children and personal to the loved up couple. Perfect. The vows were not only romantic and sweet but were written with assistance from their children, and consisted of promises the children wanted their parents to make to each other in order to remain happy and in love.

Is your heart melting down your chest like butter on hot toast right now? Well read on.

Angelina's dress was a stunning, hand-made creation, made by none other than Versace's Luigi Massi, who is 'like family' to the actress. Sleek and effortlessly glamorous, Angelina looked incredible in the beautiful silver dress, which was slim fitting and incredibly flattering to the star's enviable figure. To top the dress off though, Angelina added a personal touch- the special pictures her children had drawn her over the years were embroidered into the back of the dress and the veil. The personal touch not only made the dress unique, but also something to keep forever- even if the drawings are lost, they are permanently etched into a dress linked to many happy memories from the special day.

Following the 'child friendly' wedding, even the wedding cake was more your stereotypical children's birthday cake than a white three-tiered creation.

Could a wedding be any sweeter?

The venue, the vows, the veil- complete family orientation to emphasize the real reason for marriage: love. No big flashy public display of affection, no worldwide proposal at a baseball game and no million dollar deal to several magazines and TV crews to have their special day exposed. Brad and Angelina treated their wedding with class and sophistication and did not let their megastar status strip away the true meaning of a marriage. Too often celebrities make their weddings about publicity, about money and about attention. Brad and Angelina made their day about the two most important things in a marriage- their family and the love that they all share.

Congratulations Brad and Angelina- may you share many more wonderful years together!

Love from,
Florence Grace
