Les Dennis Weds for Third Time

  • November 27, 2009 at 4:22 pm


The comedian, Les Dennis, has married for the third time, this time to life coach Claire Nicholson, 38. The couple wed in Highgate, North London, with their 19-month-old daughter Eleanor Grace as flower girl. Mr Dennis met business coach Claire in November 2005 at the fundraising Butterfly Ball, in memory of former Holby City actress Laura Sadler.

Dennis, 56, said recently: ‘People still like to think of me as sad, lonely Les, but I’m not. I’m now the happiest and most contented I’ve ever been in my life. The past is a foreign country; people do things differently there.’ He was referring to his very public break up from his second wife, Amanda Holden, after her affair with Men Behaving Badly star Neil Morrissey.

There were around 160 guests, including actress Michelle Collins, entertainer Lionel Blair and Loose Women presenters Carol McGiffin, Sherrie Hewson and Denise Welch, gathered at St Augustine of Canterbury Church to watch the couple exchange vows after a register office ceremony.

Bollywood Star Shilpa Shetty declines Hello magazine deal

  • November 25, 2009 at 11:51 am


Bollywood star Shilpa Shetty reportedly declined a deal worth nearly £75,000 from Hello magazine for exclusive rights to cover her wedding. She tied the knot with UK based businessman Raj Kundra at a wedding ceremony in South East Mumbai.

A source told an Indian daily newspaper that Celebrity Big Brother winner turned down the deal because she was uncomfortable with some of the conditions. The source said: “One of the clauses in the contract offered by the international magazine was that no other photographers would be allowed at the event. Also they didn’t want any of the guests to carry their cell phones in case someone leaked the pictures to other media. Ms Shetty was not comfortable with either of these conditions.”

The 34-year-old actress did not want her guests to be frisked or their cell phones taken away, the source added, “She is not looking to make money from this wedding. It is a sacred and a beautiful occasion for her, and she doesn’t want any bad energy around.”

All the outfits Shilpa wore at the three main events of her wedding celebrations were designed by Tarun Tahiliani. Raj wore Sherwanis by designers Shantanu-Nikhil for the wedding as well as the reception.

The reported price tag for her wedding jewellery, classic Kundan pieces with uncut diamonds and emeralds, has been put at Rs 3 crore (30 million).

After wearing Kundan jewellery for her engagement, the Mehndi/Sangeet ceremony and the wedding, Shilpa opted for diamonds and rubies for the wedding reception to compliment her Indo-western fusion outfit in gold.

Grace Adams-Short’s quiet, traditional wedding

  • November 20, 2009 at 8:53 pm

Big Brother 7 contestant Grace Adams-Short has revealed that she kept her marriage to be a “traditional affair” which she wanted to keep “classy and meaningful”. -  A celeb-free occasion with close family and friends attending the big day.

Speaking to Digital Spy, she said that  her wedding to fellow reality TV contestant Mikey Dalton was at a church near her mother’s home town in Devon.

Despite keeping the wedding a private affair, the whole event was filmed by Wedding TV as the couple allowed their wedding to be filmed by Wedding TV, following the successful filming of them before (on Help! I Need a Wedding Entertainer).

” I have to admit that I was really girly and into the preparations. I was actually bridezilla right up until the end. Even writing up the thank you notes, I was bridezilla. For me, it was all about the preparation and I wanted everything to run like clockwork.”

You don’t have to become a bridezilla to keep your wedding well organised.  But, do leave plenty of time to choose your  dress and wedding jewellery.  It is worth bearing in mind that you may want to order your wedding jewellery in time for your fitting – just to check that your necklace, wedding bracelets or bridal earrings complete  your perfect look.  At Girls Love Pearls, we offer a 7 day free returns service on all of our wedding jewellery, so if it is not quite right, you can return the items to us.  If you are not quite sure which style of wedding necklaces will suit your dress, then why not order 2 or 3 different designs? and then simply take advantage of our returns service for the unwanted items.

Kelly Osbourne delays wedding until fiance is old enough to drink

  • November 20, 2009 at 7:31 pm

kelly-osbourne

Kelly Osbourne has revealed why she will  not be wedding her fiance Luke Worrell in the near future.

Kelly, the daughter of rocker Ozzy Osbourne has said that  she will wait until her 19-year-old boyfriend is old enough to legally drink in the US before getting married.  This means that the couple will not be getting married until 2011, as Luke is not 21 until his birthday on Boxing Day next year, says a report in the Sun.

Speaking to TV Biz, Kelly  has said: “Luke and I are engaged and we’ll get married when I want to. But he isn’t even 21 yet, so he can’t drink in America, so what’s the point in getting married until he can?”

Although her new husband will probably want to celebrate tying the knot with a glass of champagne  Kelly, 25 may not be joining him, as she stopped drinking earlier this year.

Kelly, has been showing off her new found dancing skills in the US reality TV show Dancing With The Stars.  Sharon and Ozzy Osbourne,  were there to celebrated as their daughter  finished 3rd on the leader board and danced her way in to the finals of the show.

With over a year to plan her big day, Kelly will have plenty of time to prepare for her wedding day, and once she has chosen her dress she will be able to look for her wedding jewellery.  Perhaps her rock star father will buy her a beautiful pearl necklace, or diamond bracelet to add some sparkle to her wedding day look.

You won’t need rock star money to buy your beautiful wedding jewellery at Girls Love Pearls – Your father could buy your bridal jewellery from our collection of  lovely faux pearl and diamante jewellery which starts from £12.95 for a pair of beautiful earrings, or perhaps your fiance will choose a lovely wedding gift from our collection of  keepsake pearl bracelets.

Britney ‘set to wed for third time’

  • November 18, 2009 at 12:59 pm

Britney Spears is reportedly planning to marry her agent, Jason Trawick, who she has been dating for months. The singer, who is all set to walk down the aisle for the third time, has never made her relationship with Jason public, though there have been rumours about a man in her life for months.

Britney married childhood sweetheart Jason Alexander in January 2004, but the wedding lasted for only 55 hours. Her second wedding to dancer Kevin Federline in September 2004 ended with a divorce battle in 2007

Trying to be discreet, Britney had kept it fairly quite that she was seriously dating. However, the mum-of-two was recently seen with the chunky bling on her engagement finger while trotting the Hollywood streets with her beau, reports The Sun.

Her mother Lynne was also said to be keeping her fingers crossed for her daughter. Lynne is reported to have said: “He is the kind of man you would dream of your daughter marrying.

Will Britney splurge out on her wedding this time? – (first time round it was reported she had a cheap ‘n’ cheerful Vegas Drive Through Wedding).  No doubt she will be thinking about her designer wedding gown and beautiful wedding jewellery to finish off her look.

Don’t have Britney’s budget for Diamonds?  Girls Love Pearls can help you achieve the same look with our collection of pearl jewellery and diamante jewellery – with prices starting from just £12.95 for a pair of Fabulous Faux pearl and diamante drop earrings and the Sparkly Bridal Jewellery Bracelet at just £19.95.

Mark Owen’s Highland Wedding

  • November 11, 2009 at 3:33 pm


Take That band member, Mark Owen is now officially a married man.  Mark tied the knot to long term girlfriend, and mother to his two children Emma Ferguson in a Highland ceremony at Cawdor Church near Inverness, afterwards heading to a reception at the historic Cawdor Castle. The couple, who have turned down magazine offers to cover the ceremony, have visited the Highlands in the past and have told friends the venue is their dream location.

Mark, who wore a purple velvet morning suit with traditional top hat, gave his fans a wave as he arrived with fellow Take That band mates Gary Barlow, Howard Donald and Jason Orange. His fellow Take That members, dressed in black tuxedos, white shirts and red roses in their buttonholes, had flown to Scotland on a 17-seater Lear jet to support him.

Emma arrived 25 minutes late for the wedding, wearing a white V-neck fitted gown, embellished with crystals, and an antique-style veil.  She smiled and waved as the crowd outside the church cheered and applauded.  Encircled by a flurry of photographers, Ferguson was assisted into the church by two bridesmaids, who were also wearing white.
