Choosing the best hairstyle for your wedding day

Right now the current trend in up-dos for wedding hair is large side-swept buns that have a lot of texture. Sometimes, the texture can be curls with twists, or braids.Elsa's elaborate braid from the movie "Frozen" is also super popular, with some moderate twists.
Here are a couple of things to consider before you fall in love with one of these styles. First, you have to make sure that your hair density supports such a style. For example if the texture of your hair is very fine or soft, and it is not very thick, then this particular style is not for you. You need a lot of hair to support this type of braided or side swept up-do.
Also, the style will differ in ways depending upon whether you have straight or curly hair. Consulting with your professional hair stylist and trying the style in advance of the wedding will ensure that you are happy with the result.
You can never go wrong with a classic French twist or chignon for your wedding day, especially when "vintage" wedding gowns and rings are coming back into fashion. These smooth and sleek hair styles are great for any hair density or texture. A recommendation for prepping your locks for these particular hairstyles would be to get a hair mask or treatment, either at home or in a salon.
Most treatments at a salon are moderately priced and are activated with low heat. Most of them can actually spot fix your dry hair, reducing split ends, and intensifying shine. Shine is a necessity to make your classic chignon looking its best.
No matter what hairstyle you choose, start early to get your hair in its best possible shape. Many brides make the mistake of waiting until right before the wedding to think about how they want their hair to look. For the best result, however, there are several things you should do as a regular regimen to make sure your hair is in its best condition for the big day.
● Do some research on the shampoo and conditioner you are currently using. Make sure it is a low pH shampoo. Healthy hair lives at 3.5.to 4.5 on the scale, so you would want to find something in that area. Higher pH shampoos can do more damage than good for your hair. Experiment with products to find the one that works best with your hair type.
● If you use heat on your hair daily when styling, make sure you invest in a heat protectant. It can be applied to wet hair for blow drying or sprayed on dry hair for smoothing irons or curling irons. This helps prevent dry, damaged ends.
● Make sure to have a trial run with your hair stylist. It's important to have your stylist know what type of hair texture, density, and length they are working with. This will give you the opportunity to have hands down the best style for your wedding.
● Many of today's brides like to get together with other members of the wedding party for a wedding day hairstyling, and it can be a fun experience. If this is in your plans, make sure you allow plenty of time with the stylist and that together you make a schedule of whose appointment is when to avoid any last minute confusion.

Get the Details on Benedict Cumberbatch and Sophie Hunter's Wedding

On an English island once favored by Queen Victoria, Benedict Cumberbatchand Sophie Hunter wed in a tasteful affair fit for a titled resident of Downton Abbey.
On Saturday, the duo exchanged vows at the Church of St. Peter and St. Paul in Mottistone, England. The location is a medieval church dating back to the 12th century.
Mottistone is located on the Isle of Wight, England's largest island and the former home of famed poet Alfred, Lord Tennyson, as well as Queen Victoria, who built a summer residence there with her husband, Prince Albert.
"It's a beautiful setting and very old English, very quaint and pretty," a local tells PEOPLE of the church where they swapped vows on Valentine's Day. "The church is not that big ... I would say maybe 100 people maximum would fit in there."

About 40 guests were seen arriving at the church Saturday along with several limousines around the Mottistone estate.
The couple did not use the church's organist to play for the wedding. Locals confirmed that they didn't use the church's florist or a Mottistone baker.
Night Before the Wedding
The Isle of Wight County Press reports that the The Imitation Game actor and Oscar nominee, 38, spent Friday evening at the Royal Yacht Squadron in nearby Cowes, a prestigious yacht club that counts Queen Elizabeth II as a patron. Prince Philip serves as the club's admiral, according to the squadron'sofficial website.
The private-members club is a roughly 30 minute drive from the church.
"It's a private members club and very private so I'm sure it was perfect for him," islander Ross Findon told PEOPLE.
Representatives for the Royal Yacht Squadron were not available for comment.
The Reception
After the ceremony, the couple and their guests headed to a reception at adjacent Mottistone Manor, which is now owned by the country's National Trust.
The 650-acre estate holds historical significance as it was first mentioned in Britain's famed Domesday Book, a survey of England dating back to 1086. (Yes, you read that correctly.) The oldest parts of the home that currently stands on the estate date back to the 15th century.

"It's a beautiful place and the gardens are very picturesque," Findon who spotted the groom in nearby Cowes just last weekend, tells PEOPLE. "There are sprawling lawns surrounding by roses, a nearby woodland with a stunning bluebell meadow that is really special. It's a very romantic little spot."
A local tells PEOPLE Hunter's family is related to the Nicholsons, who once owned Mottistone Manor and now live on the estate as tenants.
"Sophie is one of the Nicholsons, which is why they have chosen to have it here," the local source says. "The Nicholson family used to own the manor until they sold it to the National Trust ... It's a beautiful house."
Another local tells PEOPLE that Sophie's great grandmother, also named Sophie, is the sister of first Lord Mottistone, General Jack Seely, the famous World War I hero and friend of Winston Churchill. Current tenant Lord Charles Nicholson has a house in Hampshire and not there all the time. His father used to live there permanently after he retired.
Yet in traditional British fashion, locals aren't making a giant fuss about the couple's hush-hush nuptials.
"Honestly people just aren't that bothered about it, so there's been no big 'talk of the town' or anything like that," says the source.
However, the source says locals have spotted "deliveries coming and going" on "lorries" (that's trucks to us Americans).
"The manor is right opposite the church so it will be very private," the source adds, "which I'm sure was the intention."
The Guests
Well-dressed guests were seen making their way to the reception after the church ceremony. This included actor Tom Hiddleston, who was seen in traditional morning dress while walking alongside a woman in a red ensemble.

Cumberbatch's Sherlock nemesis, Andrew Scott, was also spotted walking with guest.
One famous Brit who wasn't there was Dame Judi Dench.
The actress, 80, was in London promoting her upcoming movie The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, says she hopes Benedict Cumberbatch and Sophie Hunter are having a "lovely day."
Dench has known Cumberbatch since he was "tiny" as she was at Central School of Music and Drama with his mother. Talking as grey skies and showers hovered over London and the south of England, she tells PEOPLE, "I wish they'd had a better day. I hear it's on the Isle of Wight – well, that's lovely. I expect they're having a lovely day anyway."

Newlyweds share tips for memorable wedding day

For many newlyweds that moment of saying I do was preceded by countless dizzy spells and stumbling steps, bouts with butterflies and clashing color schemes, as well as panic attacks over changing checklists and growing guest-lists.
Casey Baum, who married the love of her life, Jeb Baum, at Owen Farm in Ashland City recently took time to reflect on her experience.
"My biggest concern at our wedding was to make sure everyone had a good time," Casey said. "We kept our ceremony as short as possible so that we could spend the majority of the time with our friends and family celebrating the wonderful moment. We also made sure there were plenty of food, drinks and dancing so that everyone would have a memorable time as we became husband and wife."
Casey said she and Jeb wanted everybody to be involved in their wedding as much as possible, but noted that they were fortunate to have family and friends that wanted to just be there and to help out if needed.
"The wedding is for the bride and groom — not anyone else," she said. "So overall, the feeling of the bride and groom need to be considered over everything else."
For Casey and Jeb, the wedding location was a critical consideration, reflecting something moving and personal about the couple.
"We chose Owen Farm because it overlooks the river that we very first met on," she said. "My husband and I have a love of boating, canoeing, fishing and anything else outdoors. The water and the county atmosphere of the beautiful Owen Farms was a reflection of who we are."
Casey believes that personal touches are vital to a moving, memorable wedding ceremony that makes it unique.
"Every single thing we did was personalized," she said. "Our ceremony referenced our love for the water, outdoors and loyalty to one another for the rest of our lives. We displayed black and white photos of our parents at each of their weddings, had my mother's wedding dress as a decorative accent, and had a collage made of baby pictures of Jeb and me."
Sticking to tradition, Casey wanted to ensure that Jeb would not see her in her wedding dress until the ceremony was underway.
"The look on his face when he first saw me in my dress is something I will never forget," she said. "It meant more for me to see that expression at our ceremony with all of our friends and family."
Casey offered several additional pieces of advice for planning a wedding.
"My main tip is to not stress," she said. "At the end of that day, no matter what happens, you will be husband and wife and that is all that should matter."
She also added the importance of not being afraid to ask for help.
When it comes to the bridesmaids and the groomsmen, choose people you hope to have in your life for many years to come.
"To me, the most overlooked part of the wedding is the pictures," she said. "At the end of the day, the decorations get taken down, the cake is eaten, the music is gone, and all you are left with are the pictures that were taken. Our wedding photos mean so much to us because they capture such a wonderful time in our lives."
Also, it's not so much the budget as those helping hands from the heart that will serve to make a memorable wedding event.
"As long as you are smart about what you spend it on, money should not be an issue for your wedding," she said. "This is the biggest day of your life. It is the beginning of your life as husband and wife."

It rained on my wedding day – and I wouldn’t have spent £100,000 to stop it

Phew. Everything’s sorted. All lists ticked off. Done. So you follow the advice and you have an early night and just before you go to bed you check the weather forecast, and you sigh and then you scream as you realise all the planning has been for nought. Because it’s going to rain. Of course it’s going to rain. And the rain will ruin everything. But then your parents call with good news: they have remortgaged their house and spent £100,000 to stop it raining. Everything’s fine. Better than that: everything’s perfect.
There’s no doubt that Oliver’s Travels, the company boasting of an Ariel-like ability to control the weather, is offering a product that some will want. The problem is it’s also reinforcing the idea of the “perfect wedding”. And I of all people should know such an idea is nonsense: my wedding was great, even though my bride’s wedding dress caught fire (didn’t think of that, did you, Alanis?).
Actually, it was great precisely because my bride’s wedding dress caught fire. And because the church hall that housed our reception was a little shabby (albeit lovingly decorated by terrific friends) and because I exposed the price tag on the sole of my new pair of shoes as I knelt before the priest, and because my face was still bleeding from the almost literally cut-throat shave I’d had that morning. And because, yes, it rained.
Of all the things we do, getting married is among the most real. The wording of the Anglican service is unsparing: for every better there’s a worse, for every richer there’s a poorer, for every health there’s a sickness; joy is soon followed by sorrow, love by death. It’s not the stuff of soapy romance. And yet, your wedding day is invariably sold as flawless, bright, shiny and perfect. Utterly unreal and unlike the life on which you’re about to embark. Yes, there will be fun and excitement, but your boiler will break down, your chimney will need repointing, your cavity wall insulation will need replacing. No wonder divorce rates are risingif marriage is marketed as a fairytale.
Besides, there’s enough scope for nuptial control-freakery as it is without bringing the weather into it. It might be preferable if couples actually had fewer options, fewer details, less to customise, less to get tone-perfect. Then they’d be able to focus on the only things that matter, which are a) that they both turn up, b) that someone turns up to officiate, and c) that some people turn up to watch. (If you have £100,000 to spare, don’t spend it on meteorological manipulation like you think you’re Jesus. Spend it on food and drink for everyone. That’s pretty much all your guests will want, and frankly, they deserve it.)
If you’re lucky, your wedding won’t go according to plan. If you’re lucky, it won’t be the day you’ve always dreamed of. If you’re lucky, it’ll look nothing like it does in the brochures, nothing like it does in any film you’ve seen or any book you’ve read, nothing like any fairytale (although a wedding that looked like Rumpelstiltskin would be quite something). Flawed masterpieces are the best sort: give me the Beatles’ White Album over the Beatles’ blue album any day.
My wife’s wedding dress, once pristine and brilliant, hangs singed and sooted (blame the cake). It was beautiful, and it’s now even more beautiful, but it’s only a dress. All that really mattered was that my wife was unharmed: the swift actions of a friend saved us from having to spend our wedding night in our local burns unit. So may your wedding day be gloriously imperfect. May the sun shine, yes. But may it rain, too.

Prenuptial protection

JUST as each wedding creates potential business for divorce lawyers, so each engagement gives insurers a chance to drum up business. Future spouses, says Alan Tuvin of Travelers, an insurer, may wish to protect themselves against something going wrong on the wedding day. It is unlikely that your betrothed will scarper on horseback, as Julia Roberts did in “Runaway Bride”, and most insurers wouldn’t cover that anyway. But you never know what might happen. Mr Tuvin launched the firm’s wedding-insurance business; he and his wife were its first clients.
A typical American wedding costs $25,000 or so. This has fallen a bit over the past quarter-century but still seems lavish given how tight American belts are these days (see chart). Weddings are pricey because the rich are more likely to marry than the poor, and the average age of newlyweds has gone up, so couples are more prosperous when they eventually tie the knot. High prices, and the fact that many venues require couples to take out liability insurance, feed demand for wedding insurance. A fifth of couples buy it, says theWedding Report, a trade publication. “If some fat lady slips on a canapé and breaks her hip, she doesn’t give a rat’s ass that this is her boyfriend’s cousin’s wedding,” hypothesises Robert Nuccio of Wedsure, an insurer. “She just wants to get paid.”
Wedding insurance began in Britain: Cornhill, an insurer, wrote its first policy in 1988. But there were few takers. The idea only took off once transplanted to America. In the early days, says Mr Nuccio, there were incidents of couples faking engagements to collect a payout. Since then, most policies have a clause that excludes “change of heart”. Wedsure does insure against cold feet, but its policy will pay out only if the wedding is cancelled more than 12 months before it is due to take place, thereby guarding against fiancés (or their parents) phoning the broker once the relationship is already on the rocks.
This does not mean policies are useless. Common causes of payouts include the venue or caterers going bust after having taken a big deposit. Extreme weather, a spouse being deployed by the armed forces and an absent priest can all trigger payouts. Most policies will pay to re-stage the photos if the snapper fails to turn up or disappears with the pictures. “DJs are flaky. Florists? Flaky. Cakemakers? Flaky. They are all flaky as hell,” warns Mr Nuccio.
For some, even a small risk of something going wrong on a day that has been planned for months is worth paying to avoid. Who says romance is dead?

Boston site auctions outtakes from Kennedy wedding in Newport

Never-before-published outtakes from John F. Kennedy's Newport wedding to Jacqueline Bouvier are being auctioned by a Boston auction house this month.
Taken by Fall River freelance photographer Arthur Borges, the 13 negatives were found in his darkroom after he died in 1993. Borges had been hired as a backup photographer for the 1953 Kennedy wedding.
Bobby Livingston, executive vice president at RR Auction in Boston, said he believes that Borges took hundreds of wedding-day photos "and left behind these few."
Bidding, which started Sept. 26 and reached $3,141 by 4 p.m. Tuesday, has "already surpassed our consignors expectations, and we expect it to soar," Livingston said. The online auction will end sometime after 6 p.m. Oct. 15.
Already in 1953, "Senator Kennedy and his beautiful wife were media darlings," Livingston said Tuesday. "You can see the policemen holding back the crowds. It was the society event of the year. It's mayhem," he said.
Borges, "a blue-collar guy," lived in Fall River and worked at Firestone. "He was there professionally. He's got opposite angles to the ones taken by Life magazine."
The Life photos show the couple cutting a cake outdoors. A Borges photo shows the couple cutting a cake indoors.
"Two Boston-area bakeries still fight to this day over who made the cake for Kennedy's wedding," Livingston said. He believes the indoor cake was for the family and the cake pictured in the Life photo was for the huge reception outdoors.
"The thing that you'll notice, in these outtakes, or whatever they are, they're posing the wedding party on that hill, and our guy is getting them in between moments, where they're laughing. The wind is blowing Kennedy brothers' hair all around. It's just great." In another one, Jackie's eyes "lock right into our photographer, Arthur, right outside the chapel. She's glowing."
The auction house, which has been in business since 1980, has sold other Kennedy memorabilia. The white Lincoln in which the Kennedys rode to the Air Force base in Fort Worth before flying to Dallas on that fateful morning in 1963 was auctioned last October for $318,000.
One lot was a collection of letters from JFK to the family of Harold W. Marney, one of two crewmembers killed when their PT-109 was destroyed by a Japanese ship, as well as the Purple Heart awarded to Marney. "This letter is to offer my deepest sympathy to you for the loss of your son, Kennedy wrote in one of the letters, in 1943. "I realize that there is nothing that I can say can make your sorrow less; particularly as I know him; and I know what a great loss he must be to you and your family." That lot sold for $200,000 in a live, gaveled sale on Sept. 19, Livingston said.
"We have several institutional clients, university libraries, private collectors, people who have an affinity for the Kennedy family," Livingston said. "A lot like this speaks to a lot of different people than maybe our normal typical auction," he said.
"With worldwide attention on these photos," he expected the bidding to be "very vigorous."

Newfound images of JFK wedding up for auction

A Boston auction house is selling 13 negatives from the wedding of John F. Kennedy and Jacqueline Kennedy that were discovered in a photographer’s darkroom after his death, and have likely never been shown before.
“They’re magnificent, unpublished,” said Bobby Livingston, executive vice president of RR Auction, which is selling the negatives in an auction that ends Oct. 15 . “He was a young senator, already a known figure, and his beautiful bride.”
The negatives are still in their original folder, labeled “Pres. Kennedy 1953.” Four show the newlyweds, two show the entire wedding party, and the rest show the cake, reception, and wedding attendees, according to the auction website. Some of the pictures capture candid moments in between posed shots, with the Kennedys talking or laughing or simply looking intently at something outside the frame.
Each negative is accompanied by a print — the first ever made from the negatives.
The pictures were taken by freelance photographer Arthur C. Borges of Fall River, who served as a “back-up” photographer for the Sept. 12, 1953 wedding in Newport, R.I. LIFE Magazine documented the wedding in its pages, and the negatives now on sale were likely outtakes that never made it to the family, Livingston said.
“He shot everything, but from the other side,” said Livingston.
Borges, a World War II Army veteran who worked at the Firestone Rubber Co. and did freelance work in his spare time, died in 1993, according to his obituary. Displayed on the auction website is his old business card, which promises “wedding candids” and shows his face obscured by an old-fashioned camera.
The auction began Sept. 26, and as of noon on Oct. 4, bidding for the set stood at $363. But Livingston said he expected the bidding to rise into the thousands of dollars. The auction house has sold many Kennedy artifacts, he said, including Jacqueline Kennedy’s shoes that went for as much as $35,000.
Last month, RR Auction sold a collection of letters John F. Kennedy sent to the family of a lost PT-109 crewmate for $200,000, and a collection of letters from Robert Kennedy for $31,250, according to the Associated Press.
RR Auction is also selling a 1963 holiday card that was signed by John and Jacqueline Kennedy just days before he was assassinated in Dallas.
“What we have is really rare, and kind of tragic,” said Livingston. “Right before Mrs. Kennedy and President Kennedy went to Dallas, they signed their Christmas cards, basically wishing people a happy new year in 1964. And, tragically, of course, we know he’s killed before the holiday. And so these were kind of left behind.”
Also for sale is a Kennedy presidential document from 1962 that appoints a black woman to the Committee on Equal Employment Opportunity; a twice-signed 1952 JFK letter on an “appointment to the Coast Guard Academy; and a vintage Marilyn Monroe autograph with a personal inscription to a fan, according to a release from the auction house.

George Clooney and Amal Alamuddin's wedding weekend in full swing

George Clooney and Amal Alamuddin arrived in Venice on Friday with wedding guests trickling in around them as rumors that they would marry on Saturday appeared to be coming true.
But here's the trick: The weekend wedding will likely be symbolic, with a civil ceremony making it official on Monday.
Clooney and his betrothed boarded a water taxi dubbed "Amore" with friends Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber for a trip down Venice's Grand Canal to the Hotel Cipriani on Venice's Giudecca Island.
Alamuddin wore a sharp black-and-white-striped Dolce & Gabbana dress and doffed her shoes at some point during the boat ride, if only to make it easier to disembark upon arrival at their destination.
Clooney's "Monuments Men" and "Ocean's" franchise costar Matt Damon and wife Luciana Barroso hopped a ride on a different vessel, with a friendly Damon waving to those who were watching them on the dock.
Also spotted en route to the festivities were Clooney cousin Miguel Ferrer and his producer wife Lori Weintraub, "Ocean's Thirteen" actress Ellen Barkin, musician pal Steve Lukather of Toto fame and Vogue editor Anna Wintour, because, of course. John Krasinski and Emily Blunt evaded photographers but were reportedly spotted by New York Daily Newsspies.
Alamuddin will be heading to the Aman Canal Grande hotel on Friday night to connect with eight of her closest longtime friends -- some from her university days at Oxford -- for a girls-only get-together, a source told E! News.
At the same time, Clooney reportedly will be hanging with his guy friends at the Hotel Cipriani, where the "Amore" had delivered him, Alamuddin and their pals at the end of their Grand Canal journey.
Then there's the wedding Saturday --expected to be held at the seven-star Canal Grande -- after which the couple will spend the night together, followed by a Sunday lunch with their guests before yet another party, E! said.
Former Rome Mayor Walter Veltroni, a Clooney pal since 2007, will officiate at the symbolic Saturday ceremony, Vogue reported. A five-course banquet by Italian chef Riccardo de Pra, a specialist in European and Asian cuisines, will cap the big night.
On Monday, the city will close pedestrian access to walkways on the Grand Canal accessing the 16th-century Cavalli Palace for at least two hours, with the city order citing "the George Clooney wedding."
The palace is regularly used for civil ceremonies, according to the Associated Press. A city official told the AP that such a closure has been done before and is aimed at preventing crowds from gathering and creating a safety risk.

Couple’s Wedding Day Saved by Strangers from Craigslist

ne Texas couple never imagined they’d find the answer to their wedding day prayers on Craigslist.
Less than two weeks before his wedding, Raul Martinez, 26, was laid off from his job as a boilermaker in the chemical plant industry.
“I knew I was going to be laid off, but not that soon,” Martinez told ABC News.
After paying bills, the couple only had a little bit of money left for last minute wedding expenses earlier this month.
“We used our last $10 on something we had been needing for the wedding that we were missing,” Martinez’ wife, Savannah Martinez, told ABC News.
Even after making and selling tamales and trying to find things to pawn, they still needed money for the groom’s shoes and the bride’s hair and nails, so they listed their bedroom furniture set and television on Craigslist for sale. They were able to sell their television, but couldn't find a buyer for their bedroom set.
Judy Wehrman, 39, who lives in nearby Missouri City, Texas, said she saw Raul Martinez’ listing every day while shopping for furniture on the site.
“I showed it to my husband and said, ‘Honey, take a look at this ad. I think this guy needs some help. He keeps dropping the price. He’s desperate,’” Wehrman told ABC News.
On Sept. 12, the day before their wedding, Raul Martinez still wasn't sure how he was going to get the money they needed.
“That Friday [my wife] was crying because her aunt and everybody was doing their nails, and I didn't have the money to pay for it,” Raul Martinez said. “I told her I would come up with the money, but I didn't know how I was going to come up with the money because no one was buying the furniture.”
Wehrman said her husband wasn't interested in the furniture but told his wife that they could just give him the money. So the night before the Martinez’ Sept. 13 wedding, Wehrman sent Raul Martinez a text message.
“I said, ‘It’s not really the furniture that we’re looking for, but I was wondering what you need the money for,'” Wehrman said. “I didn't know then that he had just lost his job.”
When she found out that Martinez needed the money for his wedding, Wehrman offered to give him money as a wedding gift if he came to her house.
Raul Martinez said he didn't respond to Wehrman's message until the next day because they were busy setting up the reception hall for their wedding.
“I said, ‘If you still want the gift, you have to come to my house,’” Wehrman said.
“I told my wife, ‘Let’s go!' She said, ‘What if they jack us?’ I said, ‘They know we don’t have money,’” laughed Raul Martinez.
Savannah Martinez said she was scared when she saw the messages, but went along with her husband to wait for Wehrman near her home the morning of their wedding day.
When Wehrman finally arrived, she gave the couple $200.
“I took the money. I said, 'Thank you, we appreciate it,’” Raul Martinez said. “My wife started crying, and she said, ‘Thank you.’”
With Wehrman's gift, Raul Martinez was able to pay for his shoes and for his wife to get her hair done. Wehrman declined an invitation to their wedding that evening.
“Our goal was just to help out,” Wehrman said. “There’s a lot of people that’s blessed that can help others.”
Martinez said he’s currently working little side jobs, and the couple is no longer selling their bedroom set.
“God bless the people that helped us. This comes to show there are good people out there whenever somebody is in need,” Raul Martinez said.
“It’s good to know there are good people out there to help.”

Little People, Big World Star Jeremy Roloff's Outdoorsy Wedding Registry Revealed

There's only one day left until Jeremy Roloff weds his longtime girlfriend, Audrey Mirabella Botti, at his family's farm in Oregon.
And just before we hear wedding bells go off, E! News has learned what is on the Little People, Big World couple's registry for when they do become husband and wife.
The future newlyweds signed up for gifts at REI, where they requested a range of gifts from outdoorsy supplies to dinnerware and baking tools.
Specifically, the couple registered for a Coleman stainless steel cooler to take with them on their lengthy hikes around their future home, Los Angeles.
They also asked for close friends and family attending the nuptials for a GSI Outdoors Pinnacle base camper cooking set, along with flashlights, a hammock to snuggle up in between a pair of trees they stumble across with a spectacular view, a couples' sleeping bag, headlamp, and food container.
And along with their hiking and camping must-haves, the duo asked for a variety of flatware, ovenware, cooking utensils and an assortment of items that are absolutely necessary to start a family kitchen.
E! previously revealed the couple's wedding invite, which explained to guests that the ceremony would be followed by "feasting, frolicking, dancing, embracing, toasting, laughing, photographing, and rejoicing."
Back in March, after confirming that he had popped the big question to his ladylove, Jeremy posted the following message on Instagram:
"January 16th, 2010 I met Audrey. January 17th, 2010, I was in love. August 15th, 2011 asked her out," the caption reads.
"March 15th, 2014 I asked this beautiful girl to be mine, and she said yes. Drowning in grace. @aujb," he wrote along with an epically romantic photo of him lifting his fiancée into the air.
Meanwhile, Audrey shared the happy news on her Instagram along with a pic of her sparkly new diamond ring.
"The question: Audrey Mirabella Botti, will you marry me? The answer: YES!!!!!!!!!!!!" shewrote. "You're the one I want to team up with for life. Jeremy James Roloff, to say I'm I love you is an understatement. I'M GETTING MARRIED!!! #braidit #journeyofjerandauj #tresslelove."

Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt's Wedding Gifts Include New Paintings

Wedding presents for Mr. and Mrs. Jolie-Pitt! A source tells Us Weekly that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie received a lot of new artwork as congratulatory gifts from friends after the couple married in a top-secret ceremony last month.
Some of the gifts sent to the newlyweds will help spruce up the walls and halls of their 1,200-acre Southern France estate, Chateau Miraval, where they wed. "They are building a large art collection at Miraval," the source tells Us.
To congratulate the parents of six and help out with their massive interior design project, a close friend of Pitt's gifted original paintings by British urban artist Dom Pattinson. (No relation to that other Pattinson, Robert.)
The prints which are from Pattinson's "Hope" collection feature a young girl wearing a raincoat and holding the stem of a specific-colored flower. According to Urban Art experts Unlawful Art, the painting represent looking ahead to one's future rather than focusing on the past.
Pattinson told Unlawful Art that the little girl represents innocence, while her raincoat protects her from the occasional havoc of life. Meanwhile, the flower (available in the colors red, yellow, purple, and pink) stands for love, peace, and acceptance. The artist said his work was created from "particular moment in my life, but it allows the viewer to acknowledge something very personal to themselves."
The source adds that the newlyweds also received a giant elephant statue, though the sender remains unknown.
After nine years together, Jolie, 39, and Pitt, 50, finally tied the knot on Aug. 23. After their ceremony, the family set out for Malta, where the A-listers are filming their new movie, By the Sea. As reported by Us Weekly, the wedding gifts followed the couple to the destination. A Malta source told Us that one room in the villas where they're staying was devoted to housing the dozens of presents sent to the couple.
As for newlywed life? Brangelina told Hello! magazine, "It's a wonderful feeling to be married."

Wedding: Christine Elizabeth Altman and Brandon Paul Spencer
