Further south in Palm Beach, Florida, Bravo TV star Luann de Lesseps married Tom D'Agostino Jr. The Real Housewife of New York, formerly known as Countess Luann de Lesseps, exchanged vows during a New Year’s Eve ceremony on Saturday, which was attended by about 250 guests, including her former RHONY cast mates Jill Zarin, Kelly Bensimon and Dorinda Medley.

Luann wore a deep v-neck gown by designer Randi Rahm. Discussing her bridal dress with Bravo’s the Daily Dish prior to her nuptials, the TV star admitted, "I wanted it to be traditional, but I didn't want it to be poofy or anything like that. I wanted it to be very figure-flattering so that through the lace you can see my shape. I wanted to look traditional, but I wanted to look sexy."
