Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes are officially husband and wife. The couple exchanged vows over the weekend in front of 150 of their friends and family at the Odescalchi Castle in Lake Bracciano, Italy. The ceremony details were confirmed by TomKat’s rep, Arnold Robinson.
The sunset ceremony was performed by a Scientology minister, according to a statement from their reps. The wedding party included Cruise's children, Isabella and Connor, the best man was Cruise's best friend, David Miscavige – the head of the Church of Scientology – and Katie's sister Nancy Blaylock served as the matron of honor. Though initially there were questions about whether Cruise and Holmes's marriage on Saturday was official – the Mayor of Bracciano, Italy, said the couple needed to have a civil ceremony in town in order to make it legal – Cruise's reps say Tom and Katie took care of everything beforehand. "As is customary for couples marrying outside of the United States, Cruise and Holmes made their marriage legal in Los Angeles prior to their departure for Italy," according to the statement. Guests included Brooke Shields, Jennifer Lopez and husband Marc Anthony and Victoria and David Beckham.
- The bride: Holmes wore an off-the-shoulder Armani gown with an ivory silk train adorned in Valenciennes lace and Swarovski beaded crystal embroidery. She accessorized her gown with an ivory tulle floor-length veil and ivory silk shoes. Armani, which outfitted the entire wedding, also supplied Katie's bouquet of calla lilies, as well as a champagne evening gown, which she wore at the reception.
- The groom: Armani outfitted Cruise with a navy blue tuxedo from the Giorgio Armani Hand Made to Measure collection. The jacket label read, "Giorgio Armani for Tom Cruise."
- The couple's rings: Their rings were white gold Cartier with diamonds.
- The meal: After cocktails, guests were served Italian hors d'oeuvres, followed by a multi-course meal.
- The cake: Five-tiered white chocolate, decorated with marzipan roses, and studded with white chocolate chips.
- The entertainment: Italian singer Andrea Bocelli.
