Celebrity Bride-to-be DeAnna Pappas

If you’re a fan of reality TV or “The Bachelor,” then you remember DeAnna Pappas from the 2007 season. The following year, DeAnna Pappas appeared as “The Bachelorette.” The celebrity bride-to-be is now happily engaged with plans to marry  in an Octobor 2011 fall wedding. Look for wedding blogs from the celebrity bride as she joins Weddzilla. Deanna Pappas currently co-hosts the Lifetime television show “Get Married.”

Talk about a reunion: DeAnna Pappas and best friend Holly Durst (a former Bachelor contestant) are engaged to twin brothers – Stephen and Michael Stagliano, respectively. DeAnna became an instant fan favorite on “The Bachelor” and has since made numerous TV appearances and landed on magazine covers. Her blog is going live tomorrow, if you’re interested in following her during the wedding planning process.

Here’s a tidbit from an interview with Weddzilla:

Weddzilla: Describe your wedding vision and your personal style as a bride. For example, do you see yourself as a classic bride, a romantic bride, a non-traditional bride, or a combination of several other elements?

DeAnna Pappas: My wedding vision is very southern but chic. I see it as a rustic but elegant ceremony and reception. My personal style as a bride seems to be very traditional, but with a combination of other elements. I am not giving myself any rules to stick to. If I like something and I believe it fits the theme of our southern wedding, it’s in there!! I definitely want some traditional moments in the wedding though, like the father/daughter dance, my father walking me down the aisle, as well as not seeing Stephen on our wedding day until I walk down the aisle. We are adding our own personal twist by adding some Greek traditions to our ceremony and reception because I am very proud of my Greek heritage.

Get a celebrity look for a fraction of the cost at Advantage Bridal, where we sell everything from bridal flips flops to crystal foot jewelry and from seashell bridal garters to Beach Bride rhinestone tanks. Wouldn’t Brooke Burke look fabulous in one of our custom rhinestone tanks?

The gorgeous Brooke Burke and her “soul mate” David Charvet secretly tied the knot in St. Bart’s on August 12. The couple looked stunning in white in an intimate ceremony aboard a sailboat off a private beach, with the captain also serving as the officiant. A few, close friends attended the wedding.

Brooke and David managed to keep the news from their mothers and only told their children last minute about their plans to “elope.” Brooke Burke shared her celebrity wedding news and details on ModernMom.com, while her wedding pics can be seen at Merci Gala.

Although the couple has a son and a daughter together, they held off marriage until the timing was right for both of them. Brooke has two daughters from a previous marriage. They planned the secret affair to avoid the paparazzi.

Brooke wore a Mark Zunino gown and diamond-accented Jimmy Choo heels, with her long locks cascading down.  In her blog, she writes:

“I must admit that fear has a funny way of delaying things. . . It was pure love, commitment, and romance that lead me to marry David in such a picture perfect way. Trust me when I say that my love story has been unpredictable at times. But this day was a long time coming, beautifully staged, and totally meant to be. The summer of 2011, and its many changes, will forever be one of my FAVORITE life chapters.”

Congrats to the new celebrity couple!
