Kim's bridesmaids, her sisters Kourtney, Khloe, Kendall and Kylie were all dressed in white, although their dresses did not match.

Speaking moments after the ceremony to E! News, who film the family's reality show Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Kris said she was 'beyond bursting with happiness for Kim, Kanye and baby North'.
'Such a magical, romantic wedding!' she added. 'I feel blessed to have my new son and his family as part of ours.'
And Kanye seemed equally ebullient, with a source telling MailOnline he gave an eight-minute speech to the gathered guests.
'I just wanna stop the music a second 'cos my baby's coming back with a new dress on. Here she is - Kim Kardashian West,' he said, introducing his bride.
After the ceremony, the guests broke bread together sitting family style on a 70-metre-long marble banquet table - a gift from master craftsman Gualtiero Vannelli who used marble from the Tuscan quarry in Carrara, according to Us Weekly
