The much awaited and widely discussed wedding of rap star
Kanye West and reality TvVstar, Kim Kardashian went down
today in Florence, Italy with the lovebirds saying “I do” in a
sunset ceremony witnessed by 200 family and friends.

in Florence, Italy.
According to People magazine, Miami pastor Rich Wilkerson Jr
performed the ceremony, while Kardashian (who, along with
her bridesmaids, was dressed all in white) was walked down
the aisle by stepfather Bruce Jenner, as Italian tenor Andrea
Bocelli sang.
West and Kardashian began dating in 2012 and got engaged
last October after West proposed at San Francisco’s AT & T
Park stadium.
The wedding topped off a nearly week-long celebration in
Paris, where friends and family of the famous couple enjoyed
a pre-wedding brunch at fashion designer Valentino’s chateau
and an elaborate wedding-eve cocktail party at the Palace of
Versailles.
This is the first marriage for West. Kardashian was previously
married to music producer Damon Thomas in 2000 and,
famously, basketballer Kris Humphries in 2011, whom she split
from just 72 days later after a lavish televised ceremony. The
TV star however seemed sure about her choice this time.
Kardashian’s mum Kris Jenner told E! News she was “beyond
bursting with happiness”.
“Such a magical, romantic wedding,” she said. “I feel blessed
to have my new son and his family as part of ours.”
Celebrities including singer John Legend and supermodel wife
Chrissy Teigen, former Chicago Bulls basketball star Scottie
Pippen and wife Larsa, 12 Years a Slave director Steve
McQueen, actor Jaden Smith, rapper Big Sean, designer
Alexander Wang, Vogue’s former editor-at-large Andre Leon
Talley, Yeezus producer Rick Rubin, rapper Tyga and
girlfriend Blac Chyna were spotted entering the venue.
However, there was no sign of celeb pals Beyonce and Jay Z,
or Justin Bieber, who was rumoured to be attending.
