Paris, love, romance and weddings are on everyone’s minds with the marriage of actress Eva Longoria, of Desperate Housewives, and Tony Parker, of the San Antonio Spurs, this weekend.
I am thrilled that Eva chose my book, CHIC IN PARIS, for her bridesmaids’ gifts. What a coincidence that I am in Paris at the same time! I hope to see them around town this week using the red-covered book as their guide.

Here are my favorite recent chic weddings and a few I am very much looking forward to:

Delphine’s dress is Dior Haute Couture by John Galliano, of course.

I cannot wait to see these weddings:

Update: the handsome couple tied the knot on Valentine’s Day, February 14, 2009, in the City Hall of the Sixth arrondissement in central Paris. Congratulations!
Lauren Davis (Contributing Editor, Vogue) and Andres Santo Domingo
Lauren Davis – I wonder who will make her wedding dress? I often see her in Nina Ricci by Olivier Theyskens.
