MANSON'S FAIRYTALE WEDDING
Some 60 guests, including Lisa Marie Presley, attended the bash at Castle Gurteen in County Tipperary - home of the Mansons' friend, artist Gottfried Helnwein.
You'd expect Marilyn Manson's wedding to be a headline-grabbing, shock gothic circus of an event. Instead, his wedding to girlfriend Dita Von Teese was a fairytale set in an Irish castle - although he couldn't resist wearing black.

Marilyn wore a John Galliano-designed black silk taffeta tux, and Dita a purple taffeta Vivienne Westwood gown with train, petticoats, a tricorn hat and a corset - what else from a burlesque performer?
Contrary to rumours that the pair would exchange blood, they exchanged simple vows they wrote themselves. Art film director Alejandro Jodorowsky, a friend of Marilyn's, married them in a non-denominational ceremony. Marilyn had criticised Britney Spears' wedding to Kevin Federline for its tracksuits, saying a wedding should be "grand". A guest at his event told People magazine: "Everyone expected Manson and Dita to have some sort of crazy vampire wedding, but anyone who knows the couple knew it would be the classy, stylish affair that it was. |

"They are totally in love." Marilyn (real name Brian Warner) and Dita (real name Heather Sweet) met on Marilyn's birthday in 2001 and have been engaged for a year - all very traditional. But Heather Warner just doesn't have that showbiz ring about it, does it? |
