It's official! Serena Williams, Alexis Ohanian and baby Alexis Olympia are all one big happy family with a marriage certificate to back it up. And a plethora of stunning pics from their fairytale themed nuptials.
We've got the first official pics inside...
As predicted, VOGUE magazine had exclusive rights to the fabulous Beauty & The Beast themed wedding photos that will definitely serve as Serena & Alexis' new family portraits.
The tennis champ & her tech-business prince welcomed their guests (with the actual "Be Our Guest" Disney song playing) into their New Orleans wedding at the Contemporary Arts Center last night. Because Serena loves a theme, they went ALL out for the reported $1M wedding.
Certified boss babe Serena traded in her Nikes (well, at least for the ceremony) and tennis outfit for a custom Sarah Barton for Alexander McQueen wedding gown, topped off with a custom sparkly cape.
The new mom met her prince at the end of the aisle in what looked like an open carriage (like in the Disney movie):
Alexis said to his new wife in his vows:
“You are the greatest of all time, not just in sport. I’m talking about as a mother, and as a wife. I am so excited to write so many more chapters of our fairy tale together.”
Well isn't that sweet!
By the way, their first dance was to “Tale As Old As Time.”
Serena's whole crew was in tow - Kim Kardashian, Kelly Rowland and husband Tim, Beyoncé, Cynthia Erivo, Angie Beyince, Lala Anthony and Ciara.
And, of course, Anna Wintour was front and center for the ceremony. Chick is going to make sure these photos turn out to perfection.
Serena had her big sis Venus Williams and mom Oracene draped in custom Galia Lahav gowns as part of her bridal party. And, of course, little Olympia had her own custom made dress and booties. So cute!
There were tens of food stations representing all types of countries and food, a Gatorade "recovery" bar, donut stations and more. But Alexis kept one surprise from his wife. And her reaction was priceless:
A big ass carousel. Because, why not. We all know Serena is the biggest kid at heart,
Beyoncé snapped it up on the carousel of course and at her tennis-title themed table (each table was named after Serena's grand slam wins).
And New Edition killed the reception.
After the reception, the bridesmaids posed for formal portraits with the mother of the bride, Serena, and baby Olympia. Val Vogt, Justus Bobbitt, Lyndrea Price, Oracene Price, Olympia, Venus Williams, Isha Price, and Diondra Thornton were all by Serena's side.
We've got tons more pics in the gallery below, including close ups of Serena's dress, Olympia's dress, the fab Preston Bailey-touched decor and more.
Congrats to the Ohanians!
