Eva Longoria and Tony Parker's lavish wedding

It may just be the celebrity wedding of the year. Eva Longoria wed her boyfriend Tony Parker in a lavish Parisian ceremony on Saturday. Everything from the venue to the ring was glamorous and romantic. As one guest told OK! magazine, "It's like a royal wedding!"

An event of this size required cooperation from the French national police, who set up nearly $2 million worth of security measures. A spokesperson told the Daily Mail, "We are taking no chances. All the roads have been shut off and sniffer dogs are being used to check for explosives. There is a no-fly zone above both venues and nobody will be allowed anywhere near without a permit." With their help, the wedding went off without a hitch.

The bride was the first to leave from her $11,000 a night suite at the Park Hyatt Paris Vendome for the 5:20 pm ceremony at the Church of Saint Germain l’Auxerrois on the banks of the Seine. The location was discovered by Eva and Tony’s wedding planner Mindy Weiss. The Daily Mail claimed the Roman Catholic couple was “smitten with the medieval church on sight.� It was decorated with more than 1,000 flowers for the wedding.

Eva wore a silk wool couture mermaid gown made by her friend, Venezuelan designer Angel Sanchez, reported People magazine. The dress featured silk gazar metallic embroidery, a scoop back and a long train.

As guests showed up for the church ceremony (some in dark red coaches), their cell phones and cameras were sealed in plastic bags, according to People. For the privacy of A-list attendees like Jessica Alba (with boyfriend Cash Warren), Sheryl Crow and Thierry Henry, a screen was put up to block the church’s entrance from the press. Other famous guests included Longoria’s “Desperate Housewives� co-stars Nicolette Sheridan, Teri Hatcher and Felecity Huffman (with husband William H. Macy), as well as Ryan Seacrest and Mario Lopez (with girlfriend Karina Smirnoff).

One guest told Life & Style magazine, “The cutest part of the wedding was Eva’s nieces. They were the flower girls, and they were absolutely adorable. They had their hair done in ringlets and wore miniature, fluffy versions of Eva’s gown.�

Eva and Tony exchanged rings made by Piaget Possession. Hers is 18K white gold with two rows of 80 brilliant-cut diamonds surrounding a row of 27 square-cut diamonds. His was also 18K white gold, but does not have diamonds. Each ring features a special French engraving.

Father Dominic Schubert officiated the service, which lasted an hour. He told Us Weekly, "The couple wanted a quiet church wedding and now they have been married by God. They wanted proceedings to be low-key and dignified and they are extremely happy with how everything went. We were delighted that they were able to celebrate their love in front of so many family and friends.�

OK! magazine reports that the ceremony took place in both French – which is Tony’s native language – and English. Tony said his vows in English and Eva said hers in French. OK! claims “she broke into giggles when she struggled to pronounce the word ‘poverte.’�

After the vows were made, the wedding party headed for Vaux-le-Vicomte Chateau, a 17th century castle. The newlyweds left the church in a black Rolls Royce Phantom. A witness told Us, "The crowds of hundreds of fans outside went wild and shouted, ‘congratulations’ to them in chorus as they drove out.�

The reception ended in fireworks. Mario Lopez told People, "It was so great – such a fun wedding. It's been one event after another. I'm tired!" Ryan Seacrest told OK!, "The wedding was very emotional. It makes you think... Right now I'm looking at this Chateau and thinking how small my house is by comparison!"
