A vampire’s love is forever! According to UsMagazine.com, Twilight star Nikki Reed and Vampire Diaries stud Ian Somerhalder had a sunset celebrity wedding on April 26th in Topanga, California. Reed wore a couture Claire Pettibone gown, and their guests enjoyed pretty white flowers and a live band. An insider said, “Nikki originally wanted a small wedding. But Ian envisioned a big wedding, she was happy to let him call the shots.” Instead of gifts at this celebrity wedding, the cute Hollywood couple asked for donations to the Ian Somerhalder Foundation for rescued animals.

Cupid’s Advice: 

Weddings are a wonderful celebration, and you get to call all the shots! If you are choosing an outdoor location, here are some ideas for you:

1. Use what you got: Have fun with nature’s natural wedding aids. Whether that be for seating (tree stumps or hay bails), center pieces (twigs and wild flowers), or party favors (seeds to grow your own nature!)
