...cordially invited to Katy Perry’s wedding, a wedding that boasts a not-so-straight bride, an adolescent-looking groom, a bridal party, and a zebra. As the baby-faced Alexander gets cold feet, the maid of honor—a not-so-handsome man in a very handsome dress—delivers the perfect “Oh my God, you scumbag; I can’t believe you haven’t answered yet” face. Then, as the bridal party inexplicably begins to dance, a black groomsman with the most awesome dreads pulls...

Rachel's wedding is Kym's first, brief venture back into the real world after a long stint in rehab...
...Friday's wedding, then, represented one last chance to keep out the rabble. The real Leticia arrived days before the wedding to avoid the paparazzi, and the groom showed up in a car with tinted glass. The 300 or so guests were quickly ushered through tight security.
