Kim Kardashian and Kayne West were married on Saturday, May 24, 2014, at Fort di Belvedere in Florece, Italy, with friends and family present.
The festivities began a few days prior, when the couple had their respective bachelor and bachelorette parties in Paris, France. Kim’s mother, Kris Jenner, Khloe Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian, Kylie Jenner and Kendall Jenner were all in attendance, as were family friends Lala Anthony and Brittny Gastineau. Pre-wedding events included a tour of Versailles and a dinner with Valentino. Vogue editor Franca Sozzani was in attendance and shared a photo of the Kardashian clan at Valentino’s estate.
The rehearsal dinner reportedly took place at the Palace of Versailles, where guests were treated to a special performance by Lana Del Rey. Del Rey sang “Young & Beautiful,” one of Kim’s favorite songs.
The ceremony was performed in front of two huge walls of white flowers, and was officiated by a friend of the couple’s and a pastor from Miami.

As for the fashion, Kim chose to wear a custom Givenchy Haute Couture gown, and Kanye and their daughter North West were also decked out in the designer for the ceremony. Kim’s wedding party was also all dressed in white.
According to a source, Kanye gave a 20-minute speech about his beautiful bride during the reception. Bruce and Kris also gave speeches. The reception also featured an elaborate meal and a photobooth, where guests such as Legend and his wife Chrissy Teigen, Big Sean, Jaden Smith, Common and more posed for pictures.
Notably absent from the festivities were Kim’s younger brother, Rob Kardashian, and Kanye’s good friends Beyoncé and Jay-Z. Beyoncé sent the couple well wishes via Instagram on Saturday, sharing a photo from Kim and Kanye’s Vogue spread and writing, “Wishing you a lifetime of unconditional love. God bless your beautiful family.”
Of course, it wouldn’t be a Kim and Kanye event if something scandalous didn’t happen. According to reports, Kylie Jenner was caught making out with longtime friend Jaden Smith, who was her guest to the wedding.
