PHOTO OP: Bethanie finds zebras (or The Corpse Bride) inspiring, wears all-black on wedding day

So the rumors of Bethanie Mattek's marriage to JPS Insurance President Justin Sands are true and you know what? Here are the pics to prove it!


The marriage took place on Saturday, November 29, 2008 at Edgewater Beach Resort in Naples, FL.

In typical style, B's wedding was far from traditional (I mean FAR) and it seems "zebra" was the theme of the day: she worked an all-black Romona Keveza wedding dress and Marciano zebra print stilettos and wore a 5.5 carat custom engagement ring paired with a wedding ring made from 3.5 carats of black + white diamonds resembling zebra stripes.


Flowers arrangements were created from purple orchids, white lilies, and white hydrangeas and the cake, continuing the theme of the day was made from vanilla and strawberries and a layer of chocolate mousse.

I wonder what it says about the bride when her dress is straight up black? I have my guesses. And her hair, well, it's giving me flashbacks to those egg pods from Aliens. Creepster!

In any case, she's done The Corpse Bride justice and I'm sure she couldn't be more proud.

Congrats again B - can't wait to see you (and your "fashions") back on court soon. You'll be missed in Melbourne!
