The Locations of the Most Memorable Celebrity Weddings of 2015
Remember those silly high school superlatives that seemed so important back in the day?  Poring through the year’s most famous wedding photos is kind of like that - you're instantly thinking things like, “Sofia definitely has the best smile,” and “Cameron Diaz totally wins for best musical taste,” and “Johnny is absolutely the most baller guy with his own island,” and the list goes on.  But if you pay close attention, what you really start to notice is how much personality plays a role in the venue selection for each of these wedding celebrations.   We've hand picked celebrity weddings from all around the world, some with venues anyone can book and some with pretty awesome alternative spaces.  Across the board, it seems that in 2015, Mother Nature takes a starring role in the majority of A-list weddings, with privacy being major concern number two.  While we can't say which wedding is the all around class favorite, we can probably still take votes!
