5 Most Interesting Celebrity Wedding Dresses of the Past Year

Since today’s tax day and I have yet to file my taxes, I decided to procrastinate by looking at lavish celebrity weddings from the past year. (Hey, it’s much more fun than filling out tax forms…and I have until midnight to file an extension.) So, here are the five most interesting dresses from the past year in chronological order. Well, at least the most interesting ones that I could find pictures of. And I’m talking decent pictures where you can actually see the dress, not super grainy photos taken with a telephoto lens from 300 feet away by a paparazzo hiding in a bush.

Actress Tia Mowry wed actor Cory Hardrict in an ivory Kevan Hall empire tulle gown. The floral garland of the one-shouldered dress as well as the beautiful draping at the bust are what make Tia’s choice unique.

Actress Jenny Mollen married Jason Biggs for a second time in a strapless chiffon Monique Lhuillier gown that had an asymmetrically draped bodice and a handkerchief hem. I love the draping on the gown, but I’m not really sure I like the lower part of the dress. Although it does look good on her.

Actress Portia de Rossi donned a pale pink grownup tutu custom-designed by Zac Posen when she married comedienne Ellen DeGeneres (who also wore Zac Posen). The backless dress had a ballerina feel, but the blousy halter-top gave the dress an edge rather than seeming princessy.

Actress Roselyn Sanchez wed actor Eric Winter in an unwieldy Angel Sanchez creation which reminded me of Melania Trump’s $100,000 John Galliano dress. Apparently, like Melania, Roselyn had problems walking in her dress as well. It’s a good thing she had a couple of other Angel Sanchez dresses and a tuxedo suit by Xiomara Ferreira to change into throughout the day. I’m not crazy about this dress, but it is definitely interesting.

Singer Fergie (aka Sarah Ferguson) married actor Josh Duhamel wearing a tulle Dolce & Gabbana mermaid gown. The fitted, draped bodice accentuated Fergie’s famous curves and the black and white florets added interest to the bottom of the dress. The gown had a 40-foot train, which I think is a bit much. The dress would have been perfect without the added fabric…it kind of looks like she stepped on something while in the ladies room.

Of them all, Tia Mowry’s choice is my favorite, but I tend to like simple, elegant dresses. Which one do you like best? Was there a celebrity dress from the past year that I should have included?

Happily Ever After,
