31-year-old model Rebekah Marine definitely embraced the bling on her wedding day. 

Marie was born without her right forearm, but that hasn't stopped her from following her dreams and modelling for luxury brands such as Nordstrom or Tommy Hilfiger. 

Usually, Marine wears a black prosthetic arm, but for the big day she decided to go all out- ordering a customized golden arm.

"Drawing attention to it is representation of who I am now — confident, glowing and in love," Marine said, speaking to Inside Edition.

From New Jersey, the blushing bride was born with symbrachydactyly, an unexplained limb difference.

Growing up, Marine said that her differences never held her back. It wasn't until she went to college that her missing forearm drew questions. 

"That’s when I dealt with a lot of staring and questions and harsh words," she recalled. "It was kind of like a wake-up call to me — 'Wow, I really am different.'"

However, her confidence grew and she learned to celebrate her difference through modelling. 

So when it came time to wake down the aisle, she saw it as an opportunity to celebrate her prosthetic arm- by giving it a bling upgrade. 

"It represents the growth I’ve had over the past decade," Marine explained. "To show there is another side of life, and you can be happy with the cards you were given."

Marine worked with prosthetic clinics for more than a year to develop a "wedding arm" that was both practical and fabulous. To help fund the arm she used sponsors and non-profit organisations. She hopes that her golden arm will help raise awareness about the importance of prosthetics.

 She even wore the arm on her honeymoon to Mexico, where it glittered in the sun. 

Absolutely stunning!

From finding the perfect dress to creating the optimum seating plan, there are countless details to consider when planning your special day. 

But if your looking for a unique way to entertain your guest, look no further than these amazing wedding bouncy castles. 

Provided by A Wedding Wonderland, these incredible inflatables are sure to add some extra excitement to your big day. 

According to PRETTY52, the bouncy castles have proved hugely popular with brides and grooms across the world, with some even choosing to hold their ceremony inside one of these bad boys. 

However, there's a catch.

At the moment, the company only operates in the North East of England, though we're hoping the increased interest encourages them to go international. 

Speaking to the online publication, a spokesperson for the company said: 

"We've just put an advert back out, and its just gone crazy. I don't even know how many messages we have had asking for quotes.

"It's kind of all over the country, so it's not something we can follow up. We've had a few people from our area, but we've had people from Australia asking, someone from America asking if they can buy it. It seems to be quite popular!"

As well as bouncy castles, A Wedding Wonderland also has lots of other gorgeous pieces to jazz up your wedding day, including photo walls and rustic chair covers.

We are thrilled for Emily Ratajkowski, who just got hitched to producer Sebastian Bear-McClard.

The two have reportedly only been dating for several weeks, according to TMZ. The exciting news comes not long after speculation began that she had split from longtime boyfriend Jeff Magid.

The 26-year-old model, who first rose to fame after starring in the 'Blurred Lines' music video, recorded the happy event on her Instagram story.

The couple tied the knot in a New York City courthouse with witnesses, including Internet star The Fat Jewish.

They are so sweet! And we love that a pug was involved (that should really be a requirement for every wedding).

One of our other favourite parts of the ceremony? All of the funky, colourful suits involved!

While their courtship has been short, they know what they say – when you meet the one, you just know!

We are so happy for them, as are the We Are Your Friends actress' followers on social media.

"Congratulations… Enjoy every day together, time flies when you're with the one you love," a fan shared.

Another wrote, "Congratulations! Wishing you a happy and lucky life."

Congratulations again to the happy couple!

Well, all of her single girl jokes are gone now.

Amy Schumer tied the knot in Malibu Tuesday afternoon with chef Chris Fischer, People reports.

So, you've ever gotten married, been in a bridal party, or even just watched a cheesy rom-com, you'll know that peeing in the a wedding dress is no easy task.

Endless layers of lace and tulle make going it alone next to impossible and brides must rely on their nearest and dearest when nature comes calling.

However, that could all be about to change with the invention of the 'Bridal Buddy'.

Much like a slip, the Bridal Buddy fits comfortably underneath any wedding gown.

When the bride needs to go, she must gather the dress around her front and place it in the wearable contraption before putting her arms through the arms hols provided.

Still confused?

Here's a video explaining exactly how it works.

Oh, and one more thing – the armholes mentioned above are trimmed in blue, meaning you'll just need to find something old, new and borrowed.

We happen to think it's absolutely genius, but some Twitter users think it's a disaster waiting to happen?

While others have suggested another use for the product…

Either way, we're guessing this bizarre contraption will provide more than a few laughs on the big day.

You can pick up a Bridal Buddy for £80.99 (approx €92.00) on Amazon.

Maise William's has confirmed that she has been asked to take a spot in Sophie Turner's bridal party.

The Game of Thrones stars formed a strong friendship after being cast as on-screen sisters, Arya and Sansa Stark, on the hit HBO show back in 2011.

Sophie, 21, is engaged to marry musician and former Disney star, Joe Jonas, 29, and while the pair haven't started to plan the big day, Masie has revealed one detail that has been set in stone.

 

I said yes.

A post shared by Sophie Turner (@sophiet) on

When asked if she was hoping to land a bridesmaid position, the 20-year-old told Radio Times: “Oh, already got it. Yeah, it's very, very exciting. It’s kind of bizarre though.”

It's thought that the couple have put the wedding plans on hold, as Sophie is keen to wrap up the final series of Game of Thrones before the she sets a date.

Maisie said: “We're waiting 'til this season's done until we get into it. But I think she's already letting her little heart wander and imagine.”

Meanwhile, the actress recently opened up about the wrapping up the show that shot her to fame.

Speaking on Lorraine, the young star said: “We’re currently filming for the final season which is all a bit strange. Its been my entire career.”

“It’s exciting knowing I’m going to get to do more things. But it’s nerve-wracking because its been my safety net.”

Masie may not know which direction her career is headed in, but one thing's for sure, this isn't the last we've seen of the Stark sisters.

Love was quite literally in the air this week when whe two air stewards had their marriage officiated by Pope Francis during a flight to Chile.

Paula Podest, 39, and Carlos Ciufardi, 41, who have been together for 10 years, were both working as flight attendants on the Catholic leader's plane when the idea struck.

The pair, who have two children together, have been civilly married since 2010 and had been planning to hold a religious ceremony.

However, their plans were halted after the church they had planned to marry in was damaged in a earthquake.

After explaining their circumstances, Pope Francis offered to officiate their marriage there and then – 36,000 feet above sea level.

“What he said to us is very important: ‘This is the sacrament the world needs, the sacrament of marriage’,” Ciufardi told reporters.

“Hopefully this will motivate couples around the world to get married.”

A photo released by The Vatican shows a handwritten document, signed by the Pope, validating the couple's marriage.

Twitter users were quick to congratulate the happy couple and commend Pope Francis for his kind act. 

Talk about taking love to new heights…

Some brides will happily sacrifice comfort for style on their wedding day, and many others just aren't about that life.

In fact, the idea of feeling anything other than comfy AF on their big day is not something a lot of brides will entertain.

With countless brides opting to go flat on their wedding day, it's no surprise that Instagram is currently awash with thousands of stylish designs just perfect for the bride who's never even heard of 'car to bar' shoes.

Remember the last time you found yourself enduring a stilted conversation with a fellow guest at the wedding of mutual friends?

While the conversation itself may have been excruciatingly boring, it's pretty likely you understood what the other person was talking about, right?

The same can't always be said when you place an Irish person among a gaggle of Americans as one pair of newlyweds realised when they began planning their wedding.

Fearing that banter may be limited due to a 'language barrier', Patricia from Tipperary and Kyle from New York decided to compile a handy guide for guests which provides translations of  standard Irish phrases.

From 'what's the craic' to 'stop acting the maggot', Patricia and Kyle left no linguistic stone unturned as they prepped their guests for the celebrations ahead.

Uploaded to Imgur last night. here is the full list.
