See all the celebrity brides who tied the knot in a Chanel wedding dress over the years

The “Chanel bride” has earned a legendary reputation on the runway. Few models command as much attention as the one who closes Chanel’s haute couture fashion show in a breathtaking wedding dress—a tradition started by none other than former Chanel designer Karl Lagerfeld.

Below, we take a look of some of the famous brides who chose to wear a Chanel wedding dress on their big day.
