Donald Trump and Melania Knavs became engaged in 2004. The wedding took place on January 22, 2005 at Bethesda-by-the-Sea Episcopal Church in Palm Beach. Oh, what a treat!
Guests gathered at the Mar-a-Lago estate included Katie Couric, Matt Lauer, Rudolph Giuliani, Heidi Klum, Star Jones, Sean Combs, Shaquille O’Neal, Barbara Walters, Conrad Black, Regis Philbin, Simon Cowell, Kelly Ripa and Billy Joel. But the main thing: Bill and Hillary Clinton were present at the celebration.
The highlight of the party was, of course, the newly minted Mrs. Trump’s dress. Melania demanded before the wedding: she needs only the best and most expensive. The choice fell on an outfit from the Christian Dior collection.
The satin dress in Duchesse shade cost the future US president $100,000. It was handmade: 550 hours of artisans embroidering the outfit with rhinestones and pearls, in the end it weighed a full 27 kilograms. But whatever you do for beauty.
It was a classic wedding in every sense. Except for one moment. The bride refused the wedding bouquet of flowers and went to the altar with a rosary in which roses were woven. But why?
It turns out that Melania made this one compromise as a tribute to tradition. The rosary was given to her by her family: according to custom, on the day of the wedding, the bride must have something old in her hands.
