Nicole Richie & Joel Madden's Wedding~

Congratulations to Nicole Richie and Joel Madden! The couple who have been together for four years tied the knot this past Saturday. The event was complete with friends and family and a  real live elephant for good luck. Nicole wore three gorgeous gowns all designed by Marchesa when she said I do on December 11th at her father Lionel Richie's lavish Beverly Hills home.

One of her custom made wedding gowns featured a ball-gown skirt designed with over 100 yards of hand-draped silk organza and tulle petals.

The couple tied the knot under a tent and the scene was set to resemble that of a French garden. The couples children daughter Harlow, 2 was the flower girl and their 15 month old son Sparrow was the ring-bearer.

 The guest list included Gwen Stefani, DJ Samantha Ronson, Khole Kardashian, celebrity stylist Rachel Zoe and was officiated by Rev Run.

The Bride said of the evening "It was magical,"  and her new husband said "It was the best night of my life."
