Kim Zolciak Marries Kroy Biermann in a $58,000 Used Wedding Dress
Kim Zolciak is now officially a housewife.
Zolciak, a cast member on Bravo's The Real Housewives of Atlanta, tied the knot with Atlanta Falcons defensive end Kroy Biermann on Nov. 11.
Zolciak (@Kimzolciak) took to Twitter to share her joy: We did it!! Happiest Day of my life!!! #MrsBiermann.
This has been the happiest day of my life, Kim told Life & Style magazine. It's been perfect. It's been a dream come true.
Zolciak, 33, and Biermann, 26, married in a lovely ceremony at their home in Atlanta, Ga. at 4:30 p.m.
In attendance were Zolciak's two daughters and her baby boy with Biermann as well as celebrity blogger Perez Hilton, reports the Daily Mail.
This is the second marriage for Zolciak and the first for Biermann, who tweeted: Thank you everyone for your early congrats and best wishes!!!@Kimzolciak has made me the happiest man alive!!! 11.11.11.
Now for the details (which is the most important part!).
Zolciak wore a $58,000 pre-owned Baracci gown from PreOwnedWeddingDresses.com.
The last time we had a Baracci dress, it sold in 24 hours, the site's founder, Josie Daga, told WetPaint. I was curious about it so I called the owner. She said it had been her wedding dress and she had originally paid $58,000 for it.
Then, a few weeks ago, I got a call from Bravo, Daga continues. They said they were shooting a scene where Kim Zolciak is shown buying her wedding dress from my Web site and they needed my permission to show the site on TV. I asked, 'Oh did she buy the Baracci dress?' and they said yes.
Many question why Kim did not just have a designer gown custom-made. WetPaint reported that the reality star had been seen shopping around the chichi bridal shop Kleinfeld's with her wedding planner.
My guess is she didn't have time, Daga told WetPaint. She got engaged in October and married a month later. You cannot get a designer dress made that fast unless you're Khloe Kardashian and Vera Wang is, like, your family's best friend.
The dress was handmade with hand-carved crystal roses on the bustier and weighed a hefty 35-pounds.
What makes this dress unique from other Baracci dresses is the amount of beading, embroidery and craftsmanship that went into it, E! News reported via a statement from PreownedWeddingDresses.com. The dress alone weighs 35 pounds. It's covered in Swarovski crystals, pearls, beads, embroidered lace -- and the thread used is Platinum coated.
There are also hand-carved crystal roses in the design of the bustier. Everything is handmade. The fabric used is 100% Double Duchess Satin. The dress has a built-in ribcage-petticoat to enhance the Victorian look. The veil is custom-made to match the dress with beads and embroidered lace.
The blonde Atlanta-native tweeted about her cake as well.
She posted: Omg thank you Highland Bakery for my amazing wedding cake! Absolutely breathtaking I cried when I saw it! It is exactly what I wanted!!!
Zolciak met Biermann at a charity function back in 2010, according to Life & Style, during the filming of the third season of RHOA.
The couple got engaged last month after welcoming their baby boy, Kroy Jagger, in May.
He makes me a better person, says Kim. I love everything about him.
