CELEBRITY SNIPPETS Game, Set and Perfect Match 1866 views
Read the latest celeb ‘I do’s’ and all the goss on Patsy Kensit's big day - fourth time round.
Holby City star, Patsy Kensit, has married for the fourth time to DJ Jeremy Healy. Here’s hoping its fourth time lucky after her previous marriages to Dan Donovan, Jim Kerr and Liam Gallagher.
The newlyweds have been dating for two years with a civil ceremony to seal the loving knot at The Royal Horseguards Hotel in London.
Several celebrities made the guest list including Simon and Yasmin Le Bon who wore a shocking pink full-length gown and Liz Hurley with husband Arun Nayar.

And More...
It seems to be the season for tennis players to tie the knot.
Tennis ace Roger Federer (bottom) marrying Miroslava Vavrine, a fellow tennis player in his hometown of Basel. The couple have been an item for nine years and tied the knot with an intimate ceremony in preparation for their first child in the summer.
- Fellow tennis champ Andy Roddick (middle right) got hitched to model Brooklyn Decker (middle left) in his native Austin, Texas. Brooklyn wore a Vera Wang gown with bridesmaids wearing chocolate brown dresses in their tropically themed wedding. Guests included Steffi Graf, Andre Agassi and Elton John, who also performed for them.
- Salma Hayek (top right) is planning a second wedding extravaganza to Francois-Henri Pinault in Palazzo Grassi in Italy, which is owned by the Pinault family. After the quiet Valentine’s Day wedding, it sounds like this is a bigger celebration with Melanie Griffith and Antonio Banderas set to attend.

Blogging has become a vital part of planning her wedding: this week Emma asks her blog fans whether it is right to ask for money as gifts?
People tend to have strong opinions about things that happen at weddings, with some falling in the more traditional camp and others going for the unconventional. So I thought I'd test the waters of public opinion by posting a survey.
The big question is, what do you think is acceptable for couples to ask for as gifts? It’s traditional to have a store gift list, with homeware items at a range of prices that guests
can choose from. However, when modern couples have lived together for a while before marriage, they usually don’t need things like that. So what can they ask for instead?
Some couples unselfishly ask for charity donations, but sometimes guests feel uncomfortable about that – perhaps they don’t support or agree with the couple’s chosen charity, or would prefer to buy something the couple can keep and cherish.
A growing trend is to ask for a contribution to your honeymoon – either in a cash format paid into an account with the travel agent, or in pre-paid vouchers. We’re keen on this option, although much to the horror of Brandon’s mum, who falls firmly in the traditional gift list camp.
Or there’s the really sensitive option – cash. Can you ask your guests to give money? Well in these turbulent times, with retailers and travel agents going bust all the time, perhaps it’s not a bad idea! (Photo © Tourism Queensland)

Despite her initial wobble with Oxfam Bridal, Emma has found her wedding dress with more than a year to go!
It feels a bit weird to have my dress sorted with more than a year to go. But then someone called Genine left a comment on my blog to say that a year goes very fast and anything you can get organised early on will definitely help in the long run.
And I must admit, I certainly wasn’t expecting to find the perfect dress on my first (proper) shopping trip. However, the assistant in the shop advised me that if you try on too many dresses, they very soon start to blend into one.
The first dress I tried on was a beautiful gown by Essense of Australia. It looked fabulous but I knew it wasn’t quite right. My dress advisor, Catherine, picked out the next dress. It was only the second dress I tried on, but I just knew – and my mum knew, and my sister knew – that it was ‘the one’. I tried on some others after that for comparison, but none of them really came close.
It’s going to cost a little more than I had originally planned, but now I’ve tried on both second hand dresses and the real deal, I believe that your dress is one particular wedding item that you’ve just got to get right.Photo © Essense
