In
2005 pop sensation Anastacia released a CD entitled "Pieces of A Dream," and on
April 21, 2007 her dream of a happily ever after with her former bodyguard Wayne
Newton became a reality during a late afternoon ceremony held at the Quinta Real
Huatulco. This 28-suite retreat in the state of Oaxaca, Mexico sports a
whitewashed facade and 90-foot-tall twin domes that combine elements of both
Mexican and Middle Eastern architecture.Taking the arm of her mother, the bride
clutched a bouquet of peach-colored roses as she began her walk down the aisle
in a pair of high-heeled, jewel-encrusted Rene Caovilla sandals. A row of urns
brimming with kaleidoscopic flower arrangements lined her path as she strolled
toward the altar in a form-fitting, oyster-hued gown fashioned with a corset
ribbon back and diamond accents by designer Jenny Packham, whose creations have
been worn by Halle Berry, Beyonce and Sarah Jessica Parker.During the ceremony,
which was conducted by a shaman, 80 guests witnessed the bride and groom
exchange wedding bands engraved with the month and year of their union.
