Sofia Coppola, director of films such as "The Virgin Suicides" and "Marie Antoinette," married Pheonix frontman and longtime beau, Thomas Mars in Italy on Saturday. Quite possibly two of my favorite artists, this is another couple that I'd have to say it was about time. They have two babies already and, just based on experiences my friends have had, married with children is better than being steady with children, if that made any sense. From a legal point of view, that is--if you're not married, the father can end up having a really hard time just getting joint custody. But without the financial, legal, and social benefits, marriage is completely pointless in my opinion -- just an excuse to have a big fancy party. Although not quite as flashy as heiress, Petra Ecclestone's wedding, the Coppola shindig still managed to impress. Sofia kept it classy and understated in a chiffon cocktail dress in a patterned lavender by Azzedine Alaia and Thomas worked a navy blue suit. The wedding took place at Francis Ford Coppola's villa in Bernalda, Italy (where their family emigrated from) and, as expected, wine from the family vineyard was served alongside a fantastic wedding cake. Good luck to them.
