Clever, clever Britney Spears. Not only does she plan her wedding to Kevin Federline - who is the 3 D's from the looks of things (dancer, deadbeatish dad, deadweight) - during Emmy weekend when all of the paparazzi is getting ready for tonight's TV festivities, she made sure Macaulay Culkin would take the headlines yesterday!

The Star reported that the wedding took place last night in Studio City, at the home of Britney's wedding planner's ex-husband, who also happened to be the groom's and groomsmen's tailor:

Only 20 immediate family members - including Britney's shocked mom and sister Jamie Lynn. Britney wore a strapless white dress by designer Monique L'Huillier, with long veil and tiara, and she carried a bouquet of pink and white roses. Kevin suited up in black tux. Five bridesmaids and a maid of honor all wore burgundy and carried red roses.

Guests dined on chicken fingers, crab cakes, ribs, Waldorf salad, and the newlyweds danced to Journey's City by the Bay. Britney gave Kevin a platinum ring with diamonds, and she got a platinum band.

Chicagoist on Britney's engagement ring and Gothamist on Britney's first marriage. And for many, many things Britney, check out Stereogum, unofficial chronicler of everyone's favorite Mouseketeer.
