Pepto Bismol Wedding

It's like a train wreck. I just can't keep away from this story. Sorry, but it's just so bizarre.

Jordan's Pink, Pink Wedding

Good Lord above.

We all knew Jordan's wedding was going to be an extravaganza of flounce and cash-spending - but the details will still make you gasp... and vomit if you hate pink.

Hand-made ivory shoes for Peter, a foot-high pink crown for Jordan, a ring made of 20 princess-cut diamonds for Peter, a ring of 35 princess-cut diamonds for Jordan, hair extensions for Peter and a Barbie-pink gown with a corset made from thousands of pink Swarovski crystals and with a train of more than seven yards long for Jordan... and breathe.

The extraordinary fairytale wedding, which features over 51 pages of OK! magazine, looks like a craze of pink.

The glass Cinderella-style carriage which Jordan arrived in had baby pink seats and pink fur carpet.

The 300 guests, including Gazza, Big Brother's Orlaith and Vanessa Feltz, slurped pink champagne and munched on canapes served on pink featured platters.

It took a team of 12 more than three weeks to hand-sew the crystals onto Jordan's dress, which was designed by Isabell Kristensen.

After the ceremony, Jordan told the magazine: "This is the best day of my life. It's the fairytale wedding I've always dreamed of."

Talking about her hefty diamond ring, she said: "It's so big, I can't bend my finger."

But once all the glitter and fluff has disappeared, Jordan can be safe in the knowledge that should it all go wrong, Pete won't be walking off with half of her hard-earned cash.

They've signed a pre-nup to protect her millions.

"Whatever happens, I can't take half of what she's got," Pete revealed. "I don't want anything from her apart from her love."

Bless.

I thought about the irony of that, too! LMAO But I think pink blogs are okay, it's the trashy pink wedding I have a problem with, especially when the happy couple is making money from the wedding!

Too many celebrity couples are making deals to have their wedding pictures published. Makes me wonder if they really want the wedding or just the publicity.

I'd have to agree with you on that one. They're probably just after the publicity.

And as for the pre-nups, well, if you don't want the legal bother of having to share things when you get separated, why get married at all? Why not just live together, sans legal obligations, and call it a wrap? That's really what you're after when you draw up a pre-nup, isn't it? And it's not like this is a new idea, anyway.

And what a pre-nup! "I love you, but you can't have my millions. So there!" Sheesh!

Also, pink, pink, pink, makes me think of the movie "Steel Magnolias."

"They're not pink. They're blush and bashful." Ain't nothing blush or bashful about those weddin's, though, is there?
