Spooky celebrity wedding – That guy and Dita Von Teese

Okay, cut me a break on this one. Marilyn Manson may not be the best or most authentic musician, but he married a beautiful girl in a beautiful place. I don’t like him, but I LOVE his wedding. It is gorgeous and everything about it screams extravagant spooky wedding.

First – the location

"Manson" and Dita Von Teese were married in a castle in Ireland that belongs to spooky/disturbing painter Gottfried Helnwein.

Second – The couple

This picture is so gorgeous – it looks like a demented painting. The dress is purple, but it really looks like a deep blue here. Her porcelain skin looks so striking against the dress.

Third – THAT DRESS

In this picture you can see how iridescent the fabric is and the purple really comes alive. If Prince wore a wedding gown, this is the one he’d choose. I’ve seen her on some "worst celebrity wedding dress lists" and I don’t get it. Even if you don’t like the color, the style is amazing. But I really don’t like the hat - it seems silly and unnecessary with such voluminous dress. I’m confused by the red roses – I feel that they clash with the purple.

Overall, it looks like a beautiful day and I can’t imagine how much effort went in to the meticulous spooky theme. A commenter a few weeks ago said that she doesn’t like “stage production weddings…because it's a play you already know the ending to” In this case, a stage production wedding is a definite indicator – the two had an ugly divorce only one year after the wedding.

  1. Ugh, MM never deserved her. She looked awesome. I LOVE that dress, and I love where they got married! Unfortunately, if I ever get married, I DO plan to have a stage production wedding! Hopefully it won't end in a MM/Dita style divorce!!!

  2. She is very pretty!

    So you're going to make all of your guests fly to a foreign country, changes clothes 5 times, and yell at your bridesmaids?! Sounds...fun!

  3. The foreign country is a possibility! I won't yell or make anyone change clothes though. But I do want to get married in a castle, or perhaps a pirate ship. On Halloween.
