Kardashian/West Wedding Ceremonies Begin in Palace of Versailles France ('wedding of the decade')

[big_dog]

Catherine Pegard, president of the Palace of Versailles, previously said it just 'wasn't possible' for the couple to wed at the palace, even though it was their first choice but revealed their plans for the Friday night bash.
Ms Pegard said in a statement: 'Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have decided to visit the Chateau of Versailles with their guests in a private surprise tour organised for Friday, May 23rd, on the eve of their marriage.'
However, there is still speculation that they could in fact marry at the palace.


If not, second choice and the site of their reception in either case is the Forte di Belvedere in Florence, Italy, which they have rented out for the weekend.
Meanwhile, a huge arch was erected in front of the Palace Of Versailles on Friday and truck loads of flowers were spotted arriving all day.
The full list of guests was not announced but along with close family, music producer Rick Rubin, 12 Years A Slave director Steve McQueen, personal trainers Gunnar Peterson and Harley Pasternak, Madonna's manager Guy Oseary and Jennifer Aniston's hairstylist Chris McMillan were set to attend.


Other guests included Lindsay May Palevsky, the daughter-in-law of multi-millionaire LA philanthropist Max Palevsky, who died in 2010. [She’s married to his son Jonathan.]
Aaron Michaelson, one of the owners of the Chicago White Sox, Tracey Mills, a designer at Kanye's fashion label and Jerry Lorenzo, who designs Kanye's favourite brand Fear Of God, also made the cut.

[tblue37]

5. There seems to be something wrong with her face and hands.

Is it that she has had so much Botox injected into her face that it is all deformed now?

On edit: The weird face and hand thing is apparent only in the OP pic.

[big_dog]

[oneofthe99]

[KG]

[sinkingfeeling]

[monmouth3]

11. All B-Listers. From the freaks to the guests..out damned spot!..n/t

[Rex]

13. My girl ain't no Hobbit!

[AngryDem001]

14. Remind me.....

Who are these people and why should we give a shit? Oh, and I love the fact that two gay folks who truly LOVE each other and want to spend the rest of their lives with each other CAN'T get married, but two heterosexual people can get married for a publicity stunt.

Gag me.

[Louisiana1976]

31. Well said. And welcome to DU.

[malaise]

15. What a freaking circus

Those two morons could have donated all this money to some meaningful cause.

[big_dog]

21. kk looks like a cast member from star trek, not feeling the wedding attire

just a little too much cleavage

[Scootaloo]

39. And I rather doubt Kanye actually wears size 23's

But hey, you know what they say about a man with big feet...

they say "damn you got some big feet!"

[Mz Pip]

16. Why are they famous?

Who are these people??

[CBGLuthier]

[shanti]

24. well

obama put them in their place, so there's that. this vapid, vain, money grubbing family make me wanna

[Freddie]

34. The bride's late father was OJ Simpson's attorney

And close friend, Robert Kardashian.
His spawn are famous for being famous.

[Mz Pip]

37. Ah, yes. Robert Kardashian

I think that was his name. I can see the face. He died IIRC.

So why are his offspring famous? Have any of them done anything of value?

[Freddie]

40. Kim is a "celebutante"

And something about a porn tape.
Her sisters are famous for being Kim's sister. They have a fashion line at Sears and also own clothing stores I think.
Robert Kardashian died of cancer about 10 years ago. Their mom, Kris, divorced him in the early 90s and married Bruce Jenner who is the father of the two youngest girls. I'm embarrassed that I know all this.

[hobbit709]

17. Who do they think they are, scions of the Houses of Hapsburg and Bourbon?

[big_dog]

20. i was waiting for real American royalty, Bruce Jenner!!!

[hobbit709]

22. They better hope that their marriage doesn't end like Louis and Marie.

[Le Taz Hot]

23. Site of the famous "let them eat cake" utterance.

What an appropriate place to display nauseating wealth while so much of the world is in desperate need of just the basic necessities. I don't know how these people sleep at night. I really don't.

[theHandpuppet]

28. +100

You and me both.

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

25. Wow it's like we got our own personal TMZ that no one asked for. nt

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

26. I heard they couldn't marry in France because they have to live there for forty days.

This is all hype and bullshit. If they get married they will do it in Italy.


I am ashamed that I know that.

[CherokeeDem]

27. What is wrong with me....

Why did I even click on this post...

What thoroughly narcissistic people they are. Likely they'll split in six months just for the publicity.

Going to go wash my hands.....

[joeybee12]

29. The French have a reputation for being more open about sexuality, however,

do they really want that beautiful palace turned into a brothel?

[Dirty Socialist]

30. Versailles: Site of 1919s Tragic Peace

Another abominable agreement might be finalized there this weekend.

[Avalux]
