[Photos] NeNe Leakes Unveils Her Wedding Gown + Details On Her $1.8 Million Dollar Ceremony
The second time around, Greg and NeNe Leakes did it big–VERY big. As previously reported, the two officially tied the knot over the weekend, with a 400 + guest list.
Today, Life & Style shared more exclusive details about her big day. Here’s more scoop: No expense was spared. Greg presented his bride with a 10-carat diamond band to go along with her 15.2-carat engagement ring. NeNe beamed:
I feel amazing. Both of us want this, so it will definitely work this time. I know exactly what I’m getting myself into. It was more romantic this time than the first. Gregg and I are real adults, so it was better.
And guess how much was spent on the bash? A whopping $1.8 million. NeNe, who wore a $50,000 Baracci dress during the ceremony, says she spent two months carefully coordinating her nuptials with event planner Tony Conway. She wore a $20,000 Pnina Tornai dress change for the reception and nine bridesmaids dressed in white Gabriella Arango gowns.
I came up with the idea of having an Old Hollywood theme because I thought it would be completely fabulous and everyone would be able to have fun with it. I just did it my way!
Complete with a custom 10-tier cake filled with vanilla cream, guests sampled soul food like homemade biscuits, mac ’n’ cheese, shrimp and grits, and fried chicken. The nuptials will air in NeNe’s wedding spin-off called I Dream of NeNe: The Wedding on Bravo this fall.
