Serena Williams and Alexis Ohanian

Serena Williams married her perfect match! The tennis star and Reddit co-founder Alexis Ohanian tied the knot on Nov 16. The couple said “I do” in a Beauty and the Beast-themed ceremony at the Contemporary Arts Center in New Orleans. Guests were reportedly greeted to the ceremony with the song Be Our Guest from the beloved Disney film.

Two notable absentees from the star-studded guest list were Serena’s pal Meghan Markle and the TV star's royal beau Prince Harry. The Suits actress was thought to attend her friend's nuptials, however it seems that Meghan was tied up with filming commitments in Canada, while her British Prince hosted a charitable gala dinner in London.

Nonetheless, the 34-year-old entrepreneur and Wimbledon champion, 36, had plenty of other Hollywood friends in attendance for their big day, including Serena's sister Venus Williams, Ciara, Kim Kardashian, Kelly Rowland, Beyoncé, La La Anthony, Eva Longoria and her husband José Bastón.

Jordin Sparks and Dana Isaiah

This has been a big year in the American Idol winner's life. Not only did she secretly exchange vows with her beau Dana, 25, she also found out she's expecting her first baby! The adorable couple eloped while on vacation in Hawaii.

The duo met thanks to their moms! When the up-and-coming male model decided he wanted to move out to LA, their moms put them both in a group text. Little did Jordin and Dana know, their moms were playing cupid!

It was a match made in heaven. Jordin knew from the start that he was "The One." "A couple days after we had actually met, I was like in my head ‘That’s going to be my husband! That’s my husband right there,'” she told People. After going through a tough break up last year, the 27-year-old singer swore off dating, "It’s amazing that phrase, 'When you don’t look for it, that’s when it comes.' He just showed up at my door.”

Justin missed Houston's championship parade on Friday to travel to the beautiful country with Kate right after the Game 7 win over the Dodgers.

The lavish event took place at Rosewood Castiglion Del Bosco resort in a medieval church. A source tells HELLO! that Kate made for a picture perfect bride in a white Valentino gown with lace sleeves.
