Bachelorette fans, the wait is over! Desiree Hartsock married Chris Siegfried on January 18th in an intimate ceremony at Rancho Palos Verdes, California, and Us Weekly has exclusive photos. During an interview with Bridal Guide last March, the fashion designer hinted that by her definition, lace paired with bling "is the perfect combination of glamour and romance." Her ceremony and reception dresses were even more stunning than we could have envisioned.
If you're crushing on her big-day style just as much as we are, then check out two new Maggie Sottero dresses inspired by her custom looks below:
Ceremony Look
Hartsock walked down the aisle in a one-shoulder sheath featuring an embroidered ivory lace illusion neckline and a full godet skirt with blush tulle. A plunging back added a sexy, modern touch to her otherwise traditional ensemble.
Maggie Sottero, Style "Eve"
The former reality star accessorized with Irregular Studs and the Irregular Cuff from her KV Bijou Jewelry collection.
The surroundings were equally idyllic; the bride and groom exchanged personalized vows in a scenic glass church overlooking the Pacific Ocean. Bachelor alums Jason and Molly Mesnick, Ali Fedotowsky, and Brooks Forester were all on the guest list.
Reception Look
After saying their "I dos," a black stretch limo took the couple to their reception at the Redondo Beach Historic Library. Long rows of wooden tables featured arrangements of poppies, cabbage roses, ranunculus and eucalyptus, with blackberries sprinkled atop the linen runners. Hartsock changed into a glamorous sheath befitting the romantic yet rustic venue.
She balanced the deep V-neckline with sheer cap sleeves, but our favorite part was the intricate Art Deco crystal beading — talk about sparkle factor! Best of all, it was perfect for dancing the night away. (The bride took a spin with her father to "Butterfly Kisses" and singer Matt White surprised the couple with a live rendition of "Love and Affection.")
Maggie Sottero, Style "Zarina"
Hartsock accessorized with the Grace Cuff and matching Grace Dangle Drops earrings from her KV Bijou Jewelry collection.
Bob Cahoon, the president of Maggie Sottero Designs, stated "From start to finish, the wedding and the reception epitomized what we’ve grown to appreciate and love about Desiree. Both were authentically her — unpretentious while elegant; relaxed but refined." We couldn't have put it better ourselves.
