Outrageous Celebrity Weddings

In honor of the latest Kardashian to walk down the aisle, we rounded up our picks for the ten most outrageously expensive—or just plain outrageous—celebrity nuptials.

August 2011
Britney Spears and Jason Alexander: January 3, 2004
Britney Spears and Kevin Federline: September 18, 2004


It was a year of weddings for Spears. First, she married Alexander, a friend from her hometown, at The Little White Wedding Chapel in Las Vegas. After a night of partying at Ghostbar at the Palms, they rode to the chapel and were escorted down the aisle (she wore torn jeans and a baseball cap) by the hotel’s limo driver. Her record label, Jive, quickly issued a statement that the couple, “took a joke too far by getting married.” The partnership was annulled 12 hours later.

Spears turned around in September of the same year and married Kevin Federline in a surprise ceremony. Guests were treated to a cash bar, chicken wings, ribs, and mini cheeseburgers, and given sweat suits embroidered with “pimps” for the guys and “maids” for the girls. Spears filed for divorce in 2006.
