Kanye West and Kim Kardashian tied the knot Saturday (May 24) in Florence, Italy in front of friends and family. The magical wedding was equipped with floral walls, orchestras and plenty of stars.

The lavish event was certainly a musical affair with Lana Del Ray kicking things off with her performance of three songs during the couple’s rehearsal dinner at the Palace of Versaille in Paris. Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli serenaded the bride as she walked down the aisle to join her soon-to-be husband. Later that evening, the newlyweds danced to John Legend’s Billboard hit “All of Me.”

“I am so happy for Kim and Kanye,” Legend said before taking the stage, a source told US Weekly. “Kanye was inspired by you, knew he was in love with you, knew you were the one…I know Kanye personally as person, as friend and as a mentor…I believe in you two and I also believe in this song, and it’s number one now!”

While “All of Me” is beautiful, it was not the music for the couple’s first dance. The reception’s festivities reportedly started off with a mashup of Etta James’ “At Last” and Otis Redding’s “These Arms of Mine” and “Tenderness, which led into Ye giving a free rap show for his guests. Yeezy also gave a 20-minute wedding speech where he praised his Kardashian family as “the most remarkable people of our time,”according to E!

The guest list was packed with entertainment heavy hitters of all calibers including Kris Jenner, Khloé Kardashian, Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick, Kendall Jenner, Kylie Jenner, Jonathan Cheban, Rachel Roy, John Legend and Chrissy Teigen, LaLa Anthony, Lorraine Schwartz, Steve McQueen, Big Sean, Common, Yasiin Bey, Tyga and Blac Chyna, Q-Tip, Rick Rubin, Jaden Smith and David Blaine all in attendance.

Mr. and Mrs. West topped off the evening with photo booth fun. Check out flicks from the eventful weekend in the gallery on the following page.
