Kanye West married Kim Kardashian in a lavish Italian ceremony on Saturday – then introduced her to their hundreds of guests as ‘my baby, Kim Kardashian West’.

The multi-million dollar nuptials saw the couple say their vows on a hilltop overlooking Florence, shielded by a 20ft high wall of white roses and peonies as the sun began to set at the 16th century Forte di Belvedere.

The pair were seen standing with their hands clasped watched by rows and rows of their 600 guests – who did not include Kanye’s friends Beyonce and Jay Z or Kim’s brother Rob.

Kim chose a demure mermaid-silhouette gown in delicate white lace custom-made by Givenchy, who also designed a little white dress for her 11-month-old daughter North. Guests stood as Kim came face to face with her fiancé, who wore a black Givenchy suit. The couple gazed at one another as the vows were said under the direction of Rich Wilkerson Jr, a pastor from North Miami.

Kim’s bridesmaids, her sisters Kourtney, Khloe, Kendall and Kylie were all dressed in white, although their dresses did not match. They sat front row next to mother-of-the-bride Kris Jenner, also in white, and Bruce Jenner, who like most of the male guests wore a black suit. Grandmother Kris held baby North on her lap, while Kourtney had little Penelope on hers. Speaking moments after the ceremony to E! News, who film the family’s reality show Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Kris Jenner said she was “beyond bursting with happiness for Kim, Kanye and baby North.”

“Such a magical, romantic wedding!’ she added. ‘I feel blessed to have my new son and his family as part of ours.”
