Smiling for the cameras, she placed a hand on her bulging belly.
John, an Academy Award-winner who married Chrissy back in 2013, stuck to a classic look – a checked tuxedo with a black bow-tie, black dress shoes and a pristine white dress shirt.

Though the tuxedo was otherwise a dull maroon, it featured black lapels, complementing his tie and his shining pair of dress shoes.
Meanwhile, his blonde spouse wore a sweater dress that read: ‘LOVE SEES NO COLOUR’ in white text over a rainbow striped backdrop.

She carried a purse made to look like a serving of French fries.
Bebe Rexha played up her derriere in an intricately lacy black dress, which was frequently sheer and which had a cleavage-baring sloping neckline, as well as cuffs that spilled past her wrists.
