Planning a Destination Wedding

Celebrity Destination Weddings of 2016

Celebrity weddings have always been a phenomenon…’Where was it?’ ‘Who was invited?’ ‘What did the bride wear?!’ 2016 brought many celebrity couples to International locales, and we couldn’t have been ooh-ing and aah-ing more as the gorgeous brides and dapper grooms exchanged vows against breathtaking backdrops…and double points if they were kind enough to share their amazing photos with the world! Here’s just a taste of some of the stunning celebrity destination weddings we saw throughout the year:

Adrienne Bailon and Israel Houghton
Paris is always a good idea, especially when it comes to weddings and romance! Adrienne Bailon wedded gospel singer Israel Houghton donning a mermaid silhouette with a high slit, and boy did she (and the backdrop) look amazing!

Ryan Serhant and Emilia Bechrakis
The words ‘My Big Fat (and beautiful) Greek Wedding’ came to mind as soon as we saw Million Dollar Listing: New York’s Ryan Serhant wed his Grecian Goddess, Emilia Bechrakis on the island of Corfu, Greece. The bride wore a champagne, strapless gown by Romona Keveza and the couple partook in many Greek traditions, including exchanging crowns.

Margot Robbie and Tom Ackerley
Secret (weddings) are a girl’s best friend, as was the case when actress Margot Robbie tied the knot with Tom Ackerley during a secret ceremony in her native land of Australia. According to Woman’s Day, the two “decided to marry around Christmas so they could spend time with both their families afterward, which they’ve never done before.” How sweet!
