Salma Hayek, 42, and French billionaire Francois-Henri Pinault, 46, had a wedding celebration Saturday at Venice’s Teatro La Fenice opera house, according to People.com. This was the second wedding ceremony for the couple who originally got married on Valentine’s Day.
This celebration was all about family and friends, according to People. One hundred and fifty guests attended, including Charlize Theron, Ed Norton, Woody Harrelson, Penelope Cruz and other celebrities, People said.
Salma’s diamond ring must have cost a fortune for Francois, but I don’t think he’s hurting over it, considering he is the CEO of PPR, which owns Gucci and other companies.

Two proposals will take place on Desperate Housewives, according to an ABC interview with Dana Delaney, who plays Katherine on the show.
“I do know that Mike (James Denton) and I have a romantic announcement,” she said in an interview with ABC at the 20th Annual GLAAD Media Awards.
But Katherine’s character isn’t the only one with an upcoming proposal, according to ABC. Susan (Teri Hatcher) may be getting an engagement ring from Jackson (Gale Harold).
But don’t worry. This doesn’t give too much away. This doesn’t mean there will be traditional proposals or two weddings.
Teri Hatcher would not give away whether or not her character says yes to the proposal, said ABC.
