Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel will be celebrating their fifth wedding anniversary in October. Since the couple tied the knot in Italy back in 2012, they've welcomed their first child, Silas, in April 2015 and shared plenty of cute moments along the way. But how much do you really remember about their big day? Do you remember Jessica's pink wedding gown? Or all the celebrity guests who attended? Allow us to refresh your memory.

Justin serenaded Jessica as she walked down the aisle. The singer played the guitar and belted out "an original piece I wrote specifically for the evening" as Jessica made her way to the altar.
Jessica did not stick to tradition. Unlike most brides, Jessica opted for a custom petal pink Giambattista Valli Haute Couture gown complete with a long veil, and Justin donned a Tom Ford tux, which he helped design. Jessica's gown is rumored to have cost a whopping $100,000.
It was a star-studded event. The couple exchanged "I dos" in front of 100 of their closest friends and family, including Jimmy Fallon, Andy Samberg, Timbaland, Questlove, and Beverley Mitchell.

Their wedding pictures sold for a hefty price. Justin and Jessica sold their wedding pictures exclusively to People for a reported $300,000.
They were up all night. The bash reportedly wrapped up around 5 a.m. with Justin and Jessica being the last ones on the dance floor.
Jimmy Fallon interrupted Justin's wedding speech. Justin recalled the hilarious moment in a 2013 interview with Time magazine, saying, "Picture this: I’m in the heart of an impromptu speech at my wedding reception in front of 150 guests, pouring it out to my lovely new bride. You could hear a pin drop. I paused for just a moment in between thoughts. And then there was Jimmy, shouting a joke from his seat, sparking an improv between the two of us that went on for a good five or 10 minutes and had all our guests roaring with laughter. Interrupting the groom’s speech at the wedding reception? Cracking jokes when your buddy is looking desperately for the words to say that he hopes his wife will remember forever? It turned into a moment that everyone there will remember forever. Anyone else would have bombed on that stage. And then I would have kicked their ass."

They exchanged handwritten vows. During a candlelit ceremony that was officiated by the couple's close friend, director Bill Purple, Justin and Jessica exchanged handwritten vows that expressed their love for one another.
They decided to get married in the Puglia region of Italy not only for its beauty, but because they love Italian food. During the cocktail hour, guests moved to an al fresco bar for drinks and hors d'oeuvres, such as lobster in turnip tops and mini caprese salads. Dinner included a four-course meal featuring steak, sea bass, and affogato (a classic Italian dessert with a scoop of ice cream topped with a shot of espresso).
Their first dance song was Donny Hathaway's "A Song For You." Later in the night, the crowd got down to a combination of retro '60s classics and hip-hop hits spun by DJ Questlove.
