First things first: Angies dress. The gorgeous ivory silk gown was designed by Luigi Massi, the master tailor at Atelier Versace. (Jolie is a long-time fan of the designer, having worn many a Versace gown on the red carpet.) At first glance the gown looks simple—as you might expect, given Jolies taste for unfussy, sleek silhouettes: a ruched bodice with a full A-line skirt. But! Theres a twist! The train of Jolies gown as well as her veil were covered with her childrens artwork. According to People, Massi sewed in dozens of playful, colorful designs done by Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Vivienne, Shiloh and Knox. Luigi is like family to me and I couldnt imagine anyone else making this dress, Jolie told People. He knows and cares for the children and it was great fun putting it together. Playing it a bit more low-key, Pitt wore one of his own suits, and reportedly had to borrow a tie from one of his sons because he forgot his own. As for the ceremony? It sounds incredibly personal and family-focused, which is fitting, given that Jolie told ELLE earlier this summer, I tell you, the kids are so excited about the wedding...they like the idea of Mommy and Daddy getting married.” Jolie added that the wedding would be an unusual situation with all eight of us getting married. And so it was. According to People the children helped their parents write their vows. Maddox, 13, and Pax, 10, walked mom down the aisle; Zahara, 9, and Vivienne, 6, served as flower girls (they threw petals from the garden); Shiloh, 8, and Knox, 6, were the ring bearers; and Pax baked the cake. It all sounds pretty perfect, doesnt it? Related: Angelina Jolies Stripped Down, Very Real Self Related: Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie Are Doing a Private Island, Working Honeymoon
