First Photos From Jolie And Pitt Wedding

Angelina Jolie wore a dress decorated with her six children's artwork for her wedding to Brad Pitt, it has been revealed.

The first photos from the Hollywood couple's wedding in France on August 23 have been published.

The Oscar-winning actress wore a custom-designed ivory gown and veil by Atelier Versace which was decorated with colourful images by their children Maddox, 13, Pax, 10, Zahara, nine, Shiloh, eight, and six-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox.

A tweet from Donatella Versace said: "Congratulations Angelina Jolie! You look sensational in my creation for your special day! Lots of love, DV."

People magazine reported that Pitt wore a suit that he already owned for the ceremony at Chateau Miraval in the south of France.

The couple said Pax baked the wedding cake for their "fun and relaxed" day.

"It was important to us that the day was relaxed and full of laughter. It was such a special day to share with our children and a very happy time for our family," Pitt and Jolie told Hello! magazine, which covered the event with People.

Zahara and Vivienne were flower girls at the wedding while Maddox and Pax walked Jolie down the aisle.

All of the children are reported to have helped their parents write their vows.

The pair's wedding took the world by surprise when it was announced on August 28, five days after they secretly tied the knot.

Jolie and Pitt met on the set of Mr And Mrs Smith in 2005. They were engaged for more than two years with Pitt supporting his partner while she went through a preventative double mastectomy last year.

In June Jolie was awarded an honorary damehood by the Queen for her charity work.

The actress was previously married to actors Jonny Lee Miller and Billy Bob Thornton. Pitt was married to actress Jennifer Aniston until October 2005.
