Russell Wilson, Ciara moved wedding due to transgender bathroom law
“I did the whole thing – three times”, Weiss told the site.
According to their wedding planner, North Carolina was their first choice, but they didn’t feel comfortable getting behind the state. After gaining heavy amounts of negative press, the law pushed the couple to reconsider their marital plans.
After North Carolina, the couple wanted to get married in Paris, but the date fell on Couture Fashion Week making scheduling hard. ‘And it was really hard. ‘And we found a castle that was an hour out of Liverpool and they had about 110 guests’.
“Body Party” singer Ciara and her new husband Russell Wilson, who plays the quarterback for the Seattle Seahawks, are truly enjoying wedded bliss.
Since HB2 was passed in March, multiple artists like Bruce Springsteen, Ringo Starr and Maroon 5 all canceled their shows in North Carolina because they oppose the measure.
Even though fans have all seen pictures of Ciara’s wedding gown and gushed, it was better in person. The stress of planning and coordinating aside, Weiss said her favorite part of the wedding was the ceremony, “because they were so happy”. Of Wilson and Ciara, the wedding planner said, “They wanted to be away”.
“Inside the castle, they had a chapel but it was too small because her dress was 13-feet. In person, it was shockingly handsome”, the planner said. They are delicious. They really are a very cool couple.
Since their lavish wedding in London almost two months ago, Ciara and Russell have been seen out and about enjoying the married life.
