Daughter of O.J. Simpson lawyer-turned-Internet sex tape participant-turned reality TV star-turned-savvy entrepreneur Kim Kardashian is marrying basketball player Kris Humphries in an extravagant, over-the-top wedding in California today. And it would mean so much to the bride-to-be if you signed her "Virtual Wedding Guestbook" because "You guys mean the world to me, and I want to thank you for all your love and support. I love you!!!"
People magazine is paying $1 million for photographs of the Montecito nupitals while E! will broadcast a four-hour special about the wedding in October. But don't worry—NYC will get a taste of Kardashian-Humphries wedding bliss because the newlyweds will be having a party here.
According to Page Six, the Big Apple reception will be on August 31 at Capitale and thrown by wedding planner Colin Cowie and publisher Jason Binn: "The bash will have a color scheme of olive, black and white, and guests expected include current free agent Humphries’ Nets teammates." Also, "The couple will make their first home together in the penthouse suite at the Gansevoort Park Avenue.," as Kardashian will be filming "Kourtney & Kim Take New York."
