15 Unusual Celebs Wedding Venues
15 Unusual Celebs Wedding Venues, Sometimes, tying the knot doesn't mean a drive to the neighborhood chapel. Celebrities, ever so eager to buck tradition, have picked some truly offbeat settings for their weddings over the years. Here are some of the most notable.
If you've lived your life properly, then you went through a wild streak during your youth. The aptly named Olivia Wilde did just that, and when she was only 19, she got engaged to a Italian prince Tao Ruspoli at Burning Man, an annual festival in the Nevada dessert dedicated to self-expression. And that's not the most surprising part...
When Kate Hudson wed Black Crowes frontman Chris Robinson in 2000, she did so in a place that was both familiar and unusual. The ceremony itself took place on her family's vacation property, but the details of the occasion made for a bohemian affair that prompted Hudson to include a fur coat as part of her wedding ensemble.
Jerry O'Connell and Rebecca Romijn had a pretty typical wedding back in 2007 on their private ranch. But this year, the couple found a quirky way to renew their vows on a day that afforded them a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
The location where Kendra Wilkinson wed Hank Baskett would be a strange place for anyone's marriage ceremony. But considering who the landlord of this spot is, it was an especially surprising choice on Kendra's part.
When it comes to celeb weddings, it's always a "bigger is better" contest to outdo each other, right? Not in the case of Jessica Alba and Cash Warren. When this pair wed back in 2008, they staged about as low-key a ceremony as possible.
Remember when Tom Cruise jumped all over Oprah's couch in an effort to express his love for Katie Holmes? Well, the couple's dreamy choice of wedding locale is basically an extension of that.
They may be world travelers, but we still think of David and Victoria Beckham as being thoroughly British. That's why it's a little surprising that the two didn't wed in their homeland.
When Kid Rock and Pam Anderson got married to in 2006, you might have guessed that their ceremony would be in a bus terminal or a gas station bathroom. Not quite -- the location was a little more extravagant, but it was still acceptable, since Pam was wearing a bikini.
in their day, Billy Bob Thornton and Angelina Jolie taught the public a lot about how much weirdness celebs could get away with, what with the vials of blood they wore around each other's necks and all. So you'd think they probably got hitched in, like, a haunted house, right? Nope. They went the opposite direction..
By most people's standards, the wedding of Miranda Lambert and Blake Shelton was a little unusual, what with the bride having shot and killed the main course herself. But honestly, we couldn't imagine these country stars getting married any other way...
We could go on and on about the many weddings of Elizabeth Taylor, but one of them stands out as the strangest: her 1991 union to Larry Fortensky. And not just because he was a construction worker, either. No, the venue was pretty darn unusual.
On your fourth trip to the altar, why bother with tradition? That, at least, seemed to be Kelsey Grammer's attitude when he wed Kayte Walsh, because they got married in his place of business. Of course, Kelsey doesn't work in some boring, old office building...
It may not be the ceremony that made them man and wife -- that came months later -- but Tom Green did stage a wedding to then-fiancee Drew Barrymore back in 2000. And he did it in such a public forum that the whole country wondered if the whole thing was a practical joke.
It's not so much the country that's unusual about Liz Hurley's 2007 wedding to Arun Nayar, because the couple wed in his homeland. It's the rather fantastic nature of the building itself -- and the fact that the wedding was the second for the couple.
When Mena Suvari married her husband, Simone Sestito, in 2010, they did so in a location that made sense for Sestito's family. It's just a little odd when you consider the fact that this location's most famous resident is also probably the most famous unmarried person in the world...
