After all, the marriage of the former president of the United States (at that time only the future) literally surprises with its scale. What to say, among the guests were not ordinary people. Except that, despite all the canonicity of the event, one detail even today raises questions among many users of the Web. Details, as always, in the next couple of minutes.

As you probably know, on April 26, 2004, the future 45th president of the United States heard a cherished "Yes!" from Slovenian Melania Knavs on her 34th birthday. By the way, Trump himself was already 58 years old at that time. And less than a year later, they already had the right to call each other legal husband and wife. Thus, on January 22, 2005 in the Episcopal Church on the island of Palm Beach in the state of Florida, they tied themselves in marriage.

It is worth noting that neither the bride nor the groom are members of the Episcopal Church. However, as is easy to guess, it did not prevent them. The very wedding of Melania and Donald Trump took place at the man's estate "Mar-a-Lago". And, importantly, the event was classic in all respects. Except for one thing. You see, instead of the traditional bouquet of flowers, the bride had... rosary beads. But more on that later.

It is important to note that the guests were to match the groom. For example, we should mention Heidi Klum, Shaquille O'Neal, Barbara Waters, Simon Cowell, Katie Couric, Matt Lauer, Kelly Ripa and even Conrad Black. But, of course, the main guests of the gala were Bill and Hillary Clinton.

A tribute to tradition

The main attention was drawn to the bride. And there is nothing to be surprised about it. After all, Melania was not going to be satisfied with little. Even before the wedding, she set an unambiguous condition: the dress should be only the best and most expensive. As a result, Donald had no choice but to splurge on an outfit from the Christian Dior collection.

And, let's face it, the satin in the shade of "duchesse" and the fully handmade work were clearly worth it. To be more precise, they cost 100 thousand dollars. The best masters of the mentioned brand embroidered the dress with rhinestones and pearls. The sewing itself took 550 hours. As a result, Melania's outfit weighed 27 kilograms. Not for nothing they say that beauty requires sacrifice. And if the bride had to smile in such a heavy outfit, the groom's purse had to empty for the sake of it.

Nevertheless, Melania's outfit caught the eye thanks to one detail. You see, instead of the traditional wedding bouquet, the bride walked down the aisle with rosary beads. In them, by the way, roses were woven in advance. At first glance, such a decision is incredibly surprising. However, it is important to note the fact that this was a tribute to tradition. So, according to custom, the family on the wedding day should give the bride something old. As a result, such a thing became a rosary.
