Oct. 16, 2011. Singer Paul McDonald and actress Nikki Reed, Malibu, Calif. The couple met at the "Red Riding Hood" premiere and McDonald didn't know who Reed was. The 130 guests at their wedding enjoyed gorgeous vineyard views from the Chateau Le Dome, a hilltop on the Saddlerock Ranch in Malibu where the couple was married. Another sight to see was Reed's Tacori dress, which cost $1 million and took more than 100 hours of hand stitching to make. It was a silk organza gown with a silk satin organza overlay and a 72-inch train. She wore Aruna Seth "Farfalla" shoes and had sunflowers as her bouquet. The couple recited their vows under a wooden chuppah decorated with sunflowers. For the reception, guests were seated on hay bales in a grassy field with wildflower centerpieces.
