The Center for Contemporary Art in New Orleans hosted one of the most anticipated weddings in the fall. On November 16, Serena Williams, the star of world tennis, and Alexis Ohanyan, the founder of the Reddit brand, sealed themselves. As we wrote earlier, despite the scope of the event, the couple managed to make their holiday as private as possible. No matter how hard the paparazzi tried to capture the newlyweds, they could not do it. Present at the wedding guests were asked not to make personal photos and not to spread them into the network.
It became known that the exclusive right to publish wedding photos, Serena and Alexis provided to the American Vogue. It should be noted that Anna Wintour, the editor-in-chief of the magazine, not only enjoyed champagne and communion with the guests of the celebration, but personally supervised the work of its staff photographers.
Recall that the ceremony was originally conceived in fairy-tale stylistics. The designers designed the hall of the Center for Contemporary Art, relying on the footage of the film "Beauty and the Beast", which caused the rapture of the bride and the ladies present.
The first dance of the newlyweds was put under one of the musical themes of the cartoon "Beauty and the Beast", besides this, melodious compositions from the other Disney cartoon film "The Lion King" sounded. Curiously, but Serena and Alexis are fans of Disney projects and instill love for them from their daughter!
Alexis Ohanian can rightfully be awarded the royal title, which many Western journalists did. In his wedding speech he addressed his future wife only as a queen, and his daughter called a little princess:
"You are the greatest woman I know of, you are the best woman in the sport, you are the best mother and wife. I'm incredibly happy that our fairy tale continues and there are new chapters ahead, which we will write together. This is a touching moment in my life and I could not imagine that I would feel so happy. All that was before you, my achievements in career and in life, all this fades in comparison with the fact that I have you, my queen and our princess! I love you and I am grateful to fate for such a gift! "
We can not help but tell about the wedding dresses of Serena. During the evening, the bride has changed several dresses, each one caused applause and admiration of the invited guests. Under the crown Serena chose an outfit from Alexander McQueen, which was created personally by designer Sarah Burton. About a snow-white lush dress with an open neckline and a transparent cape, Serena said in a new interview with Vogue:
"Initially, I represented my wedding dress differently. In London, I flew with certain wishes for Sarah, but when I met her, she radically changed her point of view. Seeing the sketches, I fell in love with a dress with a hem of a spherical shape! "
