From www.nydailynews.com – NFL receiver Hank Baskett made the best catch of his life Saturday night, marrying Playmate Kendra Wilkinson in a lavish ceremony at her former residence, the Playboy mansion.
Wilkinson, 23, the former star of the reality TV series “The Girls Next Door,” wore more than $100,000 worth of platinum jewelry courtesy of designer Michael Barin, as she walked down the aisle in a white dress, People.com reported.
“She was beaming,” an eyewitness told US Weekly Magazine.
The groom, a 26-year-old backup on the Philadelphia Eagles, also wore white at the ceremony in Los Angeles.
Hundreds of guests lined the backyard ceremony including the bride’s former sugar daddy, Hugh Hefner.
“I could not be more delighted,” Hefner told E! News. “This is one of the happiest days in one of the happiest places on Earth.”
It’s been a big month for the celebrity couple, who announced earlier this month that they are expecting their first child in December. And Wilkinson’s new E! reality series, “Kendra,” premiered to ratings that marked the highest debut for the network since “The Anna Nicole Show” in 2002.
A few days earlier, the couple celebrated a date night at Monday’s celebrity premiere of “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.”
“I feel great! We’re just ready to say our ‘I do’s’ and just go on our honeymoon, and we’re ready to be married,” Wilkinson told People that night.
