Ellen DeGeneres and Portia De Rossi


Ellen DeGeneres has been an icon in Hollywood for years. She has been together with Portia de Rossi since 2008. The couple first met in late 2004 and dated shortly afterward. Four years later, in August 2008, they tied the knot in an intimate ceremony at their home in Beverly Hills. This was months after a ban on same-sex marriages was overturned in California, which was credited to making their wedding legal. The wedding officiator was motivational speaker Wayne Dyer. The guest list was small, with only 19 people in attendance. The reception offered vegan dishes, along with a vegan red velvet cake. The couple wanted a much larger wedding but opted for a smaller one.

Even as they exchanged their vows at home, the couple still had an elegant and sublime fashion ensemble designed by Zac Posen. De Rossi wore a tulle ball gown with a blush pink skirt. DeGeneres wore an ivory blouse, waistcoat, and trousers. Having invested all that time and effort certainly paid off, as the couple is slated to celebrate their 13th year of marriage.
