Five amazing celebrity destination weddings we can’t get over

John Legend and Chrissy Teigen

Weddings are very intimate moments that are shared with family and loved ones. Whether grandiose or modest, so much effort is put in by the couple and others who may chip in to support to make sure the occasion leaves a long-lasting impression.

With the financial backing, celebrity couples pretty much can afford any kind of wedding they wish. Some may prefer a strictly private one, like Jay-Z and Beyoncé, who had theirs at the former’s Tribeca apartment in New York City. Others, on the other hand, may prefer booking a ticket and having it at their dream destination.

Irrespective of their preferences, these talked-about occasions, including the ones we sadly couldn’t get a peek of, have always turned out to be what they wished for and more.

Take a look at those who decided to have theirs at their dream destination surrounded by family and friends.

The singer and model exchanged vows in Lake Como, Italy, in 2013 in the presence of family and friends. The location holds so many memories for the couple as that was where they spent one of their first vacations.

“One of the first vacations we took together was to Lake Como, so we thought it would be nice to marry where we fell in love,” Legend told Martha Stewart Weddings.
