She said yes to the dress!

When Vanessa Minnillo married Nick Lachey on Friday, she looked stunning in a Monique Lhuillier gown.

Minnillo, 30, isn't the first celebrity bride to walk down the aisle in Monique Lhuillier: Reese Witherspoon, Scarlett Johansson and Jessica Alba all chose dresses from the designer's collection for their weddings.

A source told Us Weekly that Minnillo and The Sing-Off host, 37, exchanged their vows at the top of a cliff overlooking the ocean on Necker Island. They first arrived to the island on Tuesday via a private jet. The wedding was extremely small and close family only.

They allowed reality cameras to document their big day as a part of a TLC wedding special.

"We kind of wrestled with that for a while, for obvious reasons," Lachey told reporters during his bachelor party earlier this month. (He famously allowed MTV's cameras to document his first wedding -- and the honeymoon phase -- with Jessica Simpson.) "Having done reality TV in the past, I didn't necessarily want to jump right back into it without having thought it through to great length, and we did."

"[Vanessa and my wedding is] for us, for the people in our lives who are close to us and mean a lot to us," he said. "That's the way we wanted it, and I'm happy we're able to do it that way."

    Vanessa knew Nick and Jessica but was not a friend of Jessica. Nick and Vanessa's relationship blossomed when she appeared in his video after the breakup of Nick and Jessica. Already they have been together since 2006 which is longer than Nick's marrige to Jessica. This marriage has staying power because it is love. I expect some really cute kids.

    I wish them the very best; although I don't agree on a friend marrying a friend ex-husband... but than again "who am i to judge"

    Goodness, you all sound like a bunch of sourpusses. Wish them all the love and luck in the world. May their marriage last and they have many children to compliment their lives. See, that didnt hurt one bit and I feel good.

    When stars put themselves out there so all could see they deserve to get what happens and don't say those famouse words " I didn't see this coming" Ya right!!!!!

    I think that this marriage will last just as long as all other stars. They just need to shack up with each other and don't bring any children into the world. It's not fair to the children. Stars today are all glitz and nothing to back it up.

    Heather, that is very true but if you truly do not care at all why are you here reading it and why waste time posting? Just to be mean and spiteful maybe?

    And why do these two nobodies think that anyone cares about them? If they both disappeared off the face of the earth tomorrow, I certainly wouldn't care. My life would go on, as would everyone else's.

    I give it 2 years

    Is anyone else here upset or dissapointed that Vanessa was friends when Nick and Jessica Simpson were still married? She will never be as pretty as Jessica. How dare she marry her friend's ex husband. Just ghetto to me and not right.

    Marriage won't last? Look how long they've been together already! Unlike some other hollywood couples, they know how to stay out of the spotlight. I'm sure they'll do just fine.

  • July 16, 2011 - 2:27pm Courtney Puzzo

    what do you expect from the tabs no celebs would be dumb enough to give you guys any info. granted the marriage won't last anyway

    So . . . where are the "details" exactly? Another misleading sensationalist headline from a tabloid rag with no scoop.
