Katherine Heigl tied the knot with Josh Kelley over a week ago, and we were wondering how long it would be before we'd get to see some photos of their wedding ceremony. Apparently she was really strict about not allowing guests to bring cameras, and it turns out that she sold the exclusives to OK! Magazine (shocker). Here's a first glance at Katherine looking gorgeous in her usual old Hollywood style wedding gown. In the article she talks about planning her wedding around the Christmas holiday and getting ready to spend her life with Josh. Here are highlights:

• On how they picked a date: "I don't think either one of us was thinking a Christmas wedding. Originally it was because I only get two weeks a year for my Christmas vacation . . . but then we really got excited about it."
• On their holiday theme: "We wanted to do it in a place that felt like a Winter wonderland. We incorporated lots of big evergreens in the reception with twinkle lights and Christmas decorations."

Ginger, Baby, Posh, Scary, and Sporty rang in 2008 side by side with dinner at Nobu before heading to Claridges on Monday night. David was along for the ride looking hot (naturally) on Victoria's arm, though I'm not sure I'm loving what she's got going on with her hair. Mel B was there but away from the cameras, who caught Geri, Emma, and Mel C leaving together late night. The girls (who were joined by their men for the party) had two days to recover from their celebration before tonight's big London show. They're starting off the new year with a bang, playing 14 shows in almost that many nights in their home city before continuing their world tour.

Fergie and Josh jetted to Cabo to celebrate their engagement status with a little new year's romantic getaway on the beach. Looks like they kept things a bit more covered up than they did on their vacation back in March, but we have a feeling they still managed to squeeze in some time soaking up rays. Fergie may be keeping her wedding details under wraps, but she's not trying to hide her excitement. When asked about how she feels about her upcoming nuptials, she said, "I feel like the luckiest girl in the world. I'm thrilled." Who wouldn't be thrilled to marry Tad Hamilton?

Lauren Conrad and Audrina Patridge slipped into their fancy party dresses to ring in the New Year in San Diego. LC was looking way too partied out by the end of the night, but it seems like she had plenty of fun (or at least her lips did - hello LC kissing mystery man). Guess this means her little makeout session with Stephen wasn't too serious. We just hope the cameras were rolling during all of Lauren's adventures with new boys — we can't wait to see her and Kristin Cavallari competing for guys again like back in the Laguna Beach days.

Mariah Carey went with a pretty standard skin tight LWD to take on hosting duties for TAO's New Year's Eve Party in Las Vegas. She had no problem posing with what looks like a delicious cake, but something tells us that Mariah skipped out on dessert. When asked about her New Year's resolutions, she said, "I should have them, but I've already done them," referring to her dieting habits in 2007. We have to agree that she looks pretty fab, which can only help in promoting her new album next year.

MTV rang in the New Year with another star-studded party in their studio overlooking Times Square. Not only did the revelers have a prime spot to view the ball drop, but they were treated to performances by Kid Rock (with Rev Run), Mary J. Blige, Good Charlotte and more. I guess that means Joel didn't get to start the new year with a kiss from Nicole, but I'm sure he'll make up for it back in LA. Cutie VJ Damien Fahey looked dapper in his three piece suit for the big night. The hostess of the party was Tila Tequila, who took the opportunity to announce that her first shot at love didn't work out and she's doing another season of her reality dating show. Who's excited?
