LOS ANGELES -- It's no secret that celebrities set the stage when it comes to the latest trends and hottest styles, and weddings are no exception. The experts at WeddingChannel.com (www.weddingchannel.com), the number one wedding and gift registry website, have pooled together the it list of the latest celebrity wedding trends and tips on how the non-famous can get married like a star without the Hollywood price tag.
Wedding in a Castle:
Celebrities are treated like royalty, so when it comes to their wedding venues, nothing says "royal wedding" like an actual castle. Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes? A medieval castle in Italy. Eva Longoria and Tony Parker? A seventeenth century castle in France. Liz Hurley and Arun Nayar? Sudeley Castle in England!
WeddingChannel.com Budget Tip: If a Moorish castle in Portugal is out of your price range, but you still want a fairy-tale wedding, there are several castles in the United States where you can say "I do."
The Entourage:
No matter where celebrities marry, they always bring along an entourage of their favorite professionals to ensure they look perfect on their wedding day. Just ask celebrity wedding photographer and WeddingChannel.com photography expert Robert Evans, who was flown to Italy to photograph the Cruise-Holmes wedding.
"Whether you're tying the knot overseas or in your backyard, it's always a good idea to use a photographer you've met in-person and personally selected," says Evans. "The photographer will be following you throughout your entire wedding, so the right chemistry is a must - plus, you'll have more control over the outcome of your wedding photos."

Couture Wedding Dress:
Celebrity brides are increasingly gravitating toward delicate cap sleeves, bolero jackets with intricate designs and trumpet gowns that show off a woman's curves. Style icon Katie Holmes wore a couture Giorgio Armani wedding gown with off-the-shoulder cap sleeves. Laila Ali and Eva Longoria both wore trumpet-style wedding gowns that accented their curvy figures.
