  1. Chrissy and John wed in an NYC courthouse. Before Chrissy and John's lavish 2013 wedding in Lake Como, Italy, the duo tied the knot in an NYC courthouse. "We actually got married after going to a couple Fashion Week shows at Vera Wang, ironically who actually did my dress, but we got married at the courthouse right after," Chrissy told E! News. "We are dumb and didn't realize that our Italian wedding would not be recognized unless we had a real ceremony in New York City." To make matters even better, Irina Shayk served as their witness.
  2. Their wedding location holds special significance. In July 2015, Chrissy revealed that when she and John first visited Italy, she wished for her and John to get married. "Back to where it all began — Lake Como, Italy — first came here in 2007. A boat tour guide took us to a little spot on the lake and told us to make a wish. I asked for this to be the man I marry and have children with. I think John asked for the most perfect bite of cacio e pepe. Both came true, and here we are," she wrote on Instagram.
