The Dress and Jewelry

A dainty diamond headband, provided by jeweler to the stars Harry Winston, helped to secure Jessica's six-foot-long veil, while her drop earrings, bracelet, and diamond and pearl necklace came from jeweler Neil Lane.

The Cake and Flowers

The 30,000 ivory and pink roses which perfumed both the ceremony and reception areas were provided by Mark's Garden, a company known for decorating many of Hollywood's most celebrated events.
