Carrie Underwood Marries Mike Fisher

Carrie Underwood Marries Hockey Star Mike Fisher


Country songstress Carrie Underwood finally had her fairy-tale wedding to Canadian pro hockey player Mike Fisher. The pink-hued fantasy wedding took place at the Ritz-Carlton Reynolds Plantation resort in Georgia.

The bride wore a beautiful Chantilly lace and silk organza Monique Lhuillier gown, along with a tiara that had over 40 carats worth of diamonds. Even her dog, Ace, was sporting some bling as he was dressed in a Swarovski crystal-encrusted pink tuxedo.

The American Idol winner’s mother told People magazine, “I was sad because she’s my baby. But I always said a prayer she’d find the right person, and I know she did.” Underwood exclaimed that the only one who seemed to object was Ace, as he trotted down the aisle with the ring bearer and flower girl and “was barking at us like mad.” Fisher added, “We were laughing, everyone was laughing and Ace was barking.” Sounds like all had a good time!

Carrie Underwood Not Stressed About Upcoming Wedding

Life is good for Carrie Underwood. On Sunday, she won the much coveted entertainer of the year award, for the second year running, at the 45th Academy of Country Music Awards. Why should a small thing like a wedding get her stressed out? The beautiful country singer doesn’t see the point in getting anxious and seems completely focused on how good things are.

On planning her nuptials to hockey player Mike Fisher, Underwood told People on Sunday, “We’re not people who stress about anything. We just focus on a few of the main things, and everything is like, whatever.” She continued, “I don’t care what color napkins are on the table. I don’t care. We’re just both really laid back. Family, food and fun, that’s all we really need. And, oh yeah, get married.”

Any potential husband would love for their fiance to have Carrie’s attitude. But it takes two to tango and Fisher is right in line with Carrie. Underwood adds, “I couldn’t ask for anything else in my whole life.” These two look like a perfect fit. It’s nice to see a couple more excited about being together than planning the wedding.

Carrie Underwood ‘s Dog in Wedding!

Celebrities and their dogs. They bring them everywhere, dress them up in little outfits, and now Carrie Underwood is including her little pooch in her wedding. Why not? Her chihuahua, Ace, will have a starring role in Underwood’s upcoming nuptials to hockey star Mike Fisher as the…you guessed it, ring bearer!

Carrie explains her decision to include little Ace in the ceremony, “He’ll be one of the ring-bearers. I don’t know if I’ll give him the actual ring. He would probably run away with it or eat it or something.” Sounds like a wonderful idea! The beautiful country star has mentioned that she wants her wedding to be a little more outside the box and you don’t get much more outside than this.

Carrie continues, “He’s like my kid. It would be like if I was getting married and I had a child – of course my child would be in the wedding!” The wedding doesn’t commence until this summer, but I’m sure we all can’t wait to see some pictures.

Carrie Underwood Dishes on Her Upcoming Wedding

Fresh off the announcement of her engagement to hockey star Mike Fisher, Carrie Underwood opens up about the details of the nuptials. The wedding will go on later this year, but it will be far but ordinary. The sweet couple have decided to forgo some wedding traditions, in favor of having a wedding all their own.

One original idea is to nix the wedding cake. “We’re kind of doing cupcakes,” Underwood told CMT Radio Live’s Cody Alan. And she’s making sure to keep it in the family by having the cupcakes come from IveyCake, a Franklin, Tenn. shop owned by the wife of Underwood’s bass player.

“I consider myself a very traditional person, but…more than anything, we’re gonna get married, that’s the important part…and we want everybody to have a good time, so we’re doing some things like that that are a little bit different,” notes Underwood. One tradition she’s not changing is the ring on her finger. The beautiful 12-carat yellow diamond engagement ring, worth a reported $800,000, was designed by her husband to be and favorite jewelry designer Johnathon Arndt.

Bling Bling! The Battle Begins: Top 5 Celebrity Engagement Rings

There’s more than just smog in the air out in Hollywood! Love is all around as celebrities are getting engaged left and right.

Nicole Richie announced her engagement last week on Late Night with David Letterman after the talk show host probed her about the status of her and her baby daddy’s relationship. But the latest young starlet to have a ring slipped on her finger is Disney star Hilary Duff. Her hockey player boyfriend, Mike Comrie, popped the question last weekend in – where else – Hawaii. Not too many points for originality, but he puts his fiance at #1 in our poll.

1. Duff wins hands down, and she would with a diamond that big on her finger. Her NHL beau took a quick trip to Vegas to scoop up a 14-carat Princess cut diamond, worth a reported $1 million.

2. Hockey players must be raking it in these days as Carrie Underwood was proposed to by her hockey hunk, Mike Fisher, who does one over Comrie in the originality department. The yellow diamond ring is a one of a kind by Underwood’s favorite jewelry designer Johnathan Arndt. The exact worth isn’t known for sure, but it’s estimated to be between $150,000-$800,000.

3. Nicole Richie took the situation into her own hands when her rocker boyfriend, and father of her two children, Joel Madden, finally proposed. She comes in third place with a $500,000 4-carat ring she designed along with celebrity jeweler Neil Lane. She’s certainly not living the simple life now as she debuted the diamond on the Late Show With David Letterman.

4. Coming in at 4th place, it’s a three-way tie between three A-List celeb couples, all sporting 3-carat rocks. British funnyman and former bad-boy Russell Brand showed a softer side when he gave fiance Katy Perry her ring, sweetly inscribed with the words, “The one I’ve been waiting for.” His Forgetting Sarah Marshall co-star, Kristen Bell, was seen wearing her ring after comic, and current co-star, Dax Shepard popped the question. The laughs continue as Office star John Krasinski proposed to his lovely British girlfriend, actress Emily Blunt.

5. Rounding out the list is True Blood star Anna Paquin, newly engaged to her co-star, real-life love Stephen Moyer. She also took matters into her own hands by designing a unique rustic diamond engagement ring with designer Cathy Waterman.
