Harvey Weinstein Marries Georgina Chapman
Posted by Adam
Movie mogul Harvey Weinstein has married British fashion designer Georgina Chapman in front of Hollywood’s biggest stars.
More than 300 guests, including actresses Cameron Diaz, Ren?e Zellweger, Jennifer Lopez and her husband Marc Anthony watched the ceremony.
Also reportedly among those invited were screen stars Eva Mendes and Anne Hathaway, and director Quentin Tarantino.
Vogue editor Anna Wintour, supermodels Karolina Kurkova and Helena Christensen also attended. And key figures from the media and entertainment worlds were also there, including Rupert Murdoch, Vanity Fair editor Graydon Carter and film agent Kevin Huvane.
The nuptials took place at Weinstein’s lavish Westport, Connecticut estate on Saturday evening.
Among those who sent videotaped tributes were Bill and Hillary Clinton, Mayor Bloomberg, Gwyneth Paltrow, Sean “Diddy” Combs, Heidi Klum, George Clooney and Anthony Minghella, according to US reports.
Guests in the heated, flower-strewn tent overlooking the ocean were treated to a meal of Dover sole and veal by Cipriani, a fireworks show, and performances by the Gipsy Kings and Sharon Jones, and a toast from Robert De Niro.
“Chicago” director Rob Marshall surprised the bride and groom with a choreographed revue in their honour to “He Had It Coming.”
The bride, 31, designed her own gown. Her maid of honour was her partner in Marchesa, Karen Craig.
The groom, 55, was escorted by his mother, Miriam, and his brother, Bob, with whom he co-founded Miramax Films.
The couple, who had a rehearsal dinner Thursday night at the Waverly Inn in Manhattan, were married by Harvey Weinstein’s longtime friend, Judge Eugene Fahey. A priest and rabbi also presided.
The marriage was the second for Weinstein, who was divorced in 2004, and the first for Chapman, a former model.
Instead of sending gifts, guests were invited to contribute to the Robin Hood Foundation’s education programs for underprivileged children in New York City and to Give2Asia’s program in support of the disadvantaged in India, the New York Daily News reported.
