Details About Angelina Jolie's Unique Wedding Dress

Wedding bells rang out for Angelina Jolie in 2014 when she married longtime love Brad Pitt. Nothing about their relationship was conventional (there were a lot of messy moments), so it makes sense that their nuptials would be atypical as well. Jolie went against the grain with her choice of dress and made sure the garment included details that were close to her heart. Her mostly white wedding dress had a colorful and artistic twist — it was decorated with art that was drawn by her and Pitt's children. The kids' doodles covered the entirety of the gown's back and the veil as well.

According to People, the hand-drawn pictures were embroidered by Atelier Versace master tailor Luigi Massi. "Luigi is like family to me and I couldn't imagine anyone else making this dress," Jolie told People. "He knows and cares for the children and it was great fun putting it together." Besides the one-of-a-kind art on the back, the front of Jolie's exquisite gown had a scoop neckline and ruching in the bodice, adding additional dimension to the beautiful, silky dress.

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's children had more wedding responsibilities

A dedicated mother of six children, it's no wonder that Angelina Jolie wanted her wedding day to be perfect for her family. Not only did she tie the knot in a dress decorated with her children's drawings, but Jolie also made sure that each of them were included during her wedding to Brad Pitt. They all contributed to the vow-writing process, according to People. Jolie was escorted down the aisle by her and Pitt's two oldest kids, Maddox and Pax, and Pax made the wedding cake too. The flower girls were Zahara and Vivienne and the ring bearers were Shiloh and Knox.

"It was important to us that the day was relaxed and full of laughter," Pitt and Jolie told People at the time. "It was such a special day to share with our children and a very happy time for our family." Back in 2010, Jolie told ABC's "Nightline" that she was not in a rush to get married to Pitt, but would go ahead with a wedding if her children asked for it. "I think it would be hard to say no to the kids," she confessed (via People). There were definitely signs that Jolie and Pitt's marriage wasn't going to last, but it's nice to hear that their wedding day was a fun family affair.
