Celebrities: they’re just like us, right? Well, maybe if we also had unlimited funds to go all out with a ridiculously expensive wedding.
There’s no better display of a celebrity’s wealth than their big day, with superstar couple Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce recently renting out Madison Square Garden for their “intimate” 1,000-person ceremony, and Dua Lipa and Callum Turner hosting a lavish three-day destination event in Sicily.
Yet while some celebrities put their money towards postcard-worthy locations and extravagant touches — like Andrea Bocelli performing at Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s Italian wedding — others spend it on ridiculous details that simply only a famous person would do.
So, with wedding season upon us (and PEDESTRIAN.TV’s very own Malteser’s wedding fast approaching), let’s take a look at seven of the wildest things celebrities have done at their weddings.
David and Victoria Beckham’s matching purple outfits
Is there anything more wild than wearing matching ensembles at your wedding? Well, yes, when they’re bright purple.
David and Victoria Beckham changed out of their all-white formal attire for these matching eggplant-hued ‘fits at their wedding reception in 1999 — and they even rewore them last year for their 25th wedding anniversary. If that doesn’t scream true love, I don’t know what does.
The pulse of Australian culture, since 2005.

Nicole Richie and Joel Madden’s elephant
Nicole Richie and Joel Madden tied the knot in 2010 in front of around 130 close family and friends — and a trained elephant. Nicole’s father, Lionel Richie, apparently organised the surprise because she’s always loved elephants, and Joel had no idea until he saw it walking down the aisle.
Anya Taylor-Joy and Malcolm McRae’s heart cakes
Heart-shaped wedding cakes sound super cute, right? Well, Anya Taylor-Joy and Malcolm McRae took things to another level at their gothic-themed ceremony in Venice with anatomically correct human heart cakes that looked way too realistic. Each to their own!
Sarah Jessica Parker and Trisha Paytas' black wedding dresses
Anya Taylor-Joy isn't the only celeb who's had a somewhat gothic-themed wedding, with Sarah Jessica Parker and Trisha Paytas both wearing black dresses on their big day. Chic!
Margot Robbie and Tom Ackerley’s tattoo station
After picking up amateur tattooing on the set of Suicide Squad, Margot Robbie reportedly tattooed the Roman numerals XIX (19) on a bunch of her wedding guests and friends to commemorate her wedding to Tom Ackerley on December 19, 2016, in Byron Bay. Fingers crossed everyone still has theirs 10 years later.
Pamela Anderson and Kid Rock’s yacht party
Who needs a wedding dress anyway? For her second wedding, Pamela Anderson married Kid Rock on a yacht in St. Tropez, France, wearing a white bikini and sailor hat while he celebrated shirtless. No dress code needed!
Bethenny Frankel’s pee bucket
The Real Housewives of New York City fans will remember Bethenny Frankel peeing in a champagne bucket while wearing her wedding dress because she couldn’t make it to the bathroom in time. The hilarious incident was captured on her spin-off show, Bethenny Getting Married?, just minutes before the pregnant bride walked down the aisle.
Wait, maybe celebrities really are just like us?
