Kim Kardashian and Kanye West tied the knot on May 24, and the amount of information that has leaked from their super-private ceremony and reception has been almost overwhelming. For all those who want to know everything there is to know about the Kimye wedding, read on! We’ve got you covered on the rehearsal dinner, guest list, menu, flowers, cake, dresses, and, of course, disses, hook ups, and drama — everything.
Let’s start from the beginning — on May 23, Kim had a pre-wedding brunch at Valentino‘s French château, and she and the rest of the Kardashian-Jenner clan were clad all in Valentino. Details on Kim’s brunch fashion (featuring major cleavage) here, and her beauty (including a sleek, long braid) here.
Kylie Jenner was not to be outdone, either — her pre-wedding brunch beauty was also spot-on, including her fab brows. Details on that here.
At the brunch, little North West said her first word! Find out what she said here!
Later that day on May 23 was Kimye’s rehearsal dinner — general details on that here.
For the nitty-gritty from inside Kim and Kanye’s rehearsal dinner, read all about Lana Del Rey‘s performance here, and see the first pic from inside the rehearsal here. (And by the way — no expense was spared in getting Lana there. She was paid $2.8 million to perform, according to sources at MailOnline!)
The fashion and beauty from that stellar party was obviously off the charts — get the look on Kendall Jenner‘s pouty lips here, and Kim’s incredible fashion and beauty here — she was braless, as you do.
During the dinner, Kanye told Kim is “way more beautiful than [he] is talented”. So sweet! Find out what else he had to say here.
Kimye’s wedding guest list was as star-studded as you might expect (list of the biggest names here, along with their wedding fashion), but there were a few who didn’t attend! Kim’s stepbrother, Brody Jenner, blew off the wedding after his girlfriend of seven months, Kaitlynn Carter, was denied an invite. All of that drama is explored here.
The most shocking absentee had to have been Rob Kardashian — he skipped the wedding festivities entirely due to a blow-up fight between himself and Kim. More on why he felt like he had to leave here, and find out exactly how Kim dissed her own brother here! (We’ll give you a hint: it’s about his weight. So sad!)
Jay Z and Beyonce were rumored to attend, but they ended up skipping. However, Bey sent a message to her good friends on their wedding day! Find out what she said here!
Their reported absence is due to that whole Rachel Roy/Solange drama, which you can read about here! It was originally reported that Jay Z was going to be ‘Ye’s best man, and that that was the only reason Beyonce would attend — thing change, we suppose! More on that here.
Finally, Khloe Kardashian‘s rumored BF French Montana also didn’t attend. Details here! We wonder if Khloe was upset?
Wedding planners, take note! Here’s a checklist you can run down:
Budget (Kimye don’t do anything by half-measure — their reported budget is a must-see!)
Wedding dress (Givenchy — beautiful! See it here.)
Bridesmaids dresses (also Givenchy; for the Kardashian/Jenners and for little North.)
Reception dress (Pretty in Balmain! See Kim’s second look here.)
Mother-of-the-bride dress (pretty — and cleavage-y! See a pic here.)
Groom’s tux (also Givenchy.)
Make up and beauty (Kim wore her hair down.)
Flowers (a giant flower wall — details and pics here.)
Cake (7-foot, 7-tier — details here, first pic here.)
Food (decadent Italian, exact menu here.)
Rings (details here, a pic of Kim’s ring here.)
Vows (what they said here, and why Kanye was worried he’d cry during them here.)
Music (John Legend, Andrea Bocelli — details on their performances here.)
Wedding party (Kim’s sisters were all bridesmaids, and Bruce Jenner walked Kim down the aisle — details here.)
Honeymoon (Kimye went to Ireland! Details here!)
Furthermore, check out the first pic of the happy couple here, and pics of dearly mistaken Justin Bieber fans who staked out the wedding in hopes of catching a glimpse of the pop star. He wasn’t there, ladies! Sad faces here!
Incidentally, Kanye released a new song over his his wedding weekend! Listen here.
Later, Kris Jenner called Kimye’s wedding “magical” and “romantic” — more on what Kanye’s new mother-in-law had to say here! Kris also walked little North down the aisle — more on that here!
At the reception, Kylie and Jaden Smith were spotted making out, and Kanye delivered a 15-minute speech about how much he loves Kim! So sweet. Make outs deets here, romantic speech deets here. (We won’t judge if you clicked on the make out link first.)
It was a selfie extravaganza at the reception — it was half a Kardashian wedding, after all. Check out our huge gallery of all the celeb selfies here! John Legend and Chrissy Teigen were particularly adorable — a must-see!
Their first dance was to a mash-up that ended in Kanye rapping for the crowd — how cool is that? Details here.
Three days after their ceremony, Kim tweeted out the first pic of the couple as Mr. & Mrs. West! Check it out here.
And that’s about it, HollywoodLifers! A Royal Wedding, indeed. What did you think of Kanye and Kim’s nuptials? And stay tuned — we’ll update this list as more about their big day is revealed!
