Here’s what celebs would change if they could redo their wedding day.
Even A-list nuptials don’t go off without a hitch or two—see what these stars would fix about their wedding day.
Skipping the First Dance
“I do have one regret… not having a first dance. I refused to have a first dance because I can’t dance and don’t like dancing in front of people. But everything else was just perfect.”
— Chrissy Teigen on her wedding to John Legend
Getting Married Close to Home
“I would have a destination wedding. It’s such a memorable time and you want it to last as long as possible!”
— Monique Lhuillier, who designed wedding gowns for Ashley Tisdale, Naya Rivera and Reese Witherspoon
Wearing Black
“White it up. I’d wear a beautiful, proper wedding dress, like I should have that day.”
— Sarah Jessica Parker, who wore a black gown when she wed Matthew Broderick
Letting the Groom Ski
“I said, ‘I don’t think you should ski,’ and he said, ‘No, I’m a good skier—I’ll be fine.’ That day, of course, he broke his nose going over a jump!”
— Katherine Heigl on her wedding to Josh Kelley
Standing Too Close to the Sparklers
“My wedding dress has a big burn mark from one of the sparklers… It was just so heartbreaking… Later my dress was hanging up and Ryan said, ‘Isn’t that beautiful?’ and he pointed to the burn. He said, ‘You’ll always remember that moment…’ Now that’s my favorite part of the dress.”
— Blake Lively on her wedding to Ryan Reynolds
Not Taking Photographs
“The only moment of my life I would possibly recapture is getting remarried again because we didn’t take any photographs. We didn’t have any money at the time and we couldn’t afford a photographer.”
— Cate Blanchett on her wedding to Andrew Upton
