Jamaica weddings - A Beach wedding for the rich and famous too

It always fascinates me that even those who are rich and famous still seek out the simple things in life, such as a stunning beach setting in which to wed. I guess that is the true beauty of a beach wedding. You can dress it up or down as well as make it lavish and extravagant or simple, elegant, and romantic as actor, Taye Diggs, and Broadway actress, Idina Menzel, did in Jamaica.
Taye evidently fell in love with Jamaica when he was on location filming there, so it made sense that he would return with his fiancé and have a Jamaica wedding. The couple married at sunset in Montego Bay, Jamaica as the waves kissed the shore of their beach wedding, and a group of 60 family members and friends looked on.
According to reports, the bride wore a stunning strapless gown that was delicately adorned with crystal beadwork as she glided toward her fiancé down a rose petal aisle. Accompanying the bride were several bridesmaids who carried gorgeous orange and yellow nosegays and wore white corset tops with ruffled hemmed, sand-colored skirts. The groom, who waited anxiously at the end of the aisle as his soon-to-be-wife approached, wore an off-white suit without a tie, which displayed the informality of the occasion.
Steve Wonder's ‘Overjoyed' played as the couple exchanged vows beneath a white canopy, which highlighted the white blossoms within the bride's upswept hair. The Jamaica wedding reception of Taye Diggs and his beautiful wife was held on the terrace of a nearby hotel and was equally as stunning as the beach wedding ceremony, with pale yellow roses that adorned the area.
Without a doubt, this is probably one of the most beautiful celebrity beach weddings I have ever encountered.
