For You Brits

Filed under: Anglophilia > Fashion Smashion

Most Americans have no idea who Wayne & Colleen are, but….

The pair are the new first couple of U.K. soccer!

Rooney and McLoughlin just got married in a very ritzy ceremony in Italy and this is the first look at her wedding dress, designed by Marchesa.

Exquisite!

OK! magazine U.K. has all the pics and coverage from the wedding.

We realize you have an Anglophilia obsession at the moment Perez. And you're just trying to suck more money in, but seriously, if I see another British article or person, I'm going to vomit! No one cares about those Brits! BORING!

This dress probably cost more than my college education at a Big Ten school, and it's not even that pretty! What about her flowers, WTH did you pick those from grannies garden?

Coleen (one "L") is fabulous! She's 22 and is a fashion icon in northern England! Keep up with the Brits Perez! Don't listen to your American fans who are too ignorant to realize there are other cultures out there with even more entertaining gossip. Pish!

Re: Angie –

Angie. You have a typical bigoted small-minded isolationist American viewpoint: all that matters in your mind is America. Well I've got news for you - there's a whole big old world out there, most of which doesn't give a stuff about the USA. Even though Perez is a Yank, doesn't mean he has to stick to the parochial worldview that you clearly have. His horizons are wider, his interests more broad. Get a passport and travel, darling. Open your mind.

Well since Manchester United is the most bought jersey out of any sport, internationally, I'm pretty sure many many people know who Wayne Rooney is
xavier1 says – reply to this

46

While dumbo Wayne and his bride (known as all girlfriends and wives of Brit football players are, as one of the WAGs - Wives and Girlfriends) spared no expense in flying guests out to Italy on private jets and hiring a yacht for $100,000 + a day, along with a host of other $$$$expenses, their "class" was really shown when they held the earlier official ceremony. Wayne wore sandals and I believe shorts?? But they really outdid themselves when it came time for the wedding meal - pizza?????WTF???????
HB says – reply to this

47

Rumer has it that Rooney wore his bathing suite to the wedding. If any of you follow EPL you would know that is typical rooney style. He's a little rough around the edges.
me says – reply to this

48

IT SHOULD BE 'EXQUISITE'

IT COST £200,000 OR U.S $400,000 !!!

THEIR WEDDING COST £5M/$10M & THEY HAD AN OK! DEAL WORTH £2.5M/$5M

THEY'RE ONLY POPULAR IN NORTHERN ENGLAND - I DON'T KNOW ANYONE IN LONDON WHO CARES ABOUT THEM - THEY'RE TO 'NORTHERN' FOR MOST.

Love Ronney, haven't been colleen's fn since she got ll huffy on him and threw the first engagment ring into a lake at a wildlife sanuary….therefor not allowing anyone to go and get it for her. she seems to be a scene causer…congrats i guess
Fran says – reply to this

62

She looks beautiful. She may be a celeb but no one deserves to be called ugly on their wedding day and anyone who does so is obviously shallow and creul. Ok, they may not be the classiest of couples with the Uk but they have worked hard for what they have achieved. Anyone who slates them are clearly just jealous. I know I am of anyone who can afford five million on a wedding!

I LOVE YOU WAYNE ROONEY!GO MANU

I'm living in London for the summer but originally from the states. Yes, this was huge huge huge news! So major. This story was on the front of so many papers for probably a week before the wedding and after…

WOW she looks amazing, brought OK the pics are fabulous.

I live in southern england and I LOVE her! whoop x
SonJa says – reply to this

72

What do you mean most people won't know who Wayne and Colleen are?? Well, maybe Colleen fine, because most soccer fans don't read tabloids (though it's hard to watch a game and not hear mention of the WAGS). Please Perez, PLEASE stop talking about soccer, stick to what you know… you come off looking like an idiot.

Wayne Rooney looks like Shrek.
SonJa says – reply to this

73

Oh, and marriage instead of the Euro. Well done Rooney!
krist says – reply to this

74

her bouquet is tinyy compared to that dress but it is gorgeous

and perez, americans are not THAT stupid, americans do know who wayne rooney is and stop acting like you know everything and everyone around the world lol
mary says – reply to this

75

i love wayne rooney..and his wife is beautiful! go Manchester U!
Mia says – reply to this

76

I thought Americans were always teased for being sensitive - not the Brits. Don't listen to people like Angie - and while you all are at it, don't make blanket statements about an entire country - now THAT's plain ignorance.

The dress is lovely…the flowers need help.
Alexi says – reply to this

77

This American loves the British people and so should you, Angie. They're some of the few people in the world who are still our friends. Try traveling out of the U.S. and see how welcomed you are in other countries as an American.
??? says – reply to this

78

it's pretty but not "exquisite"… doesn't the dress look like the one eva longoria wore to the met recently? only hers was purple and this is white with a bodice thrown on.
isy says – reply to this

79

wow, beautiful but what do you expect coleen has always had good taste (in recent years anyway)

Re: Angie –

dearest ANGIE,

Please go fuck yourself, Perez is an international site. If you are so sick of the brits don't read the article you fat obese yank. The quicker you realise that the world hates you fat cunts the better. Least he had something classy on this website instead of some knocked up american whore or the playboy bunnies.
Haywo says – reply to this

81

One of the most beautiful brides and most gorgeous dress ever.
LOU says – reply to this

82

I am v annoyed that you posted this Perez…Colleen (or as i like to call her, Colon) is just some stupid cow who used her boyfriends status as a footballer to earn money…she's done nothing for herself. And you're promoting her!!! The dress is lovely but goes down with her in it. Yuck. Can't stand the woman (and im British!) Plus, she spent like £4 million on her wedding- who does that?! Only a selfish twat like Colon.
Jelsi says – reply to this

83

I bought Ok magazine just for these pictures!
£2.95 i dished out!
They better be good pictures!
Gemma says – reply to this

84

its easy to criticise people from behind a computer screen. All you people that call them chavs, ugly etc, bet you aint no oil painting.

I bought a copy of ok magazine, I personally preferred the shorter dress that she wore to the civil ceremony. But I also like the one that is pictured on here, for a change she hasnt gone overboard like some people do!

The rooneys may not be 'exciting' news to some of you, but i personally couldnt care less about the likes of Paris Hilton, Lauren conrad etc.

Angie as for you, you are the type of person that is wrong with this world.
Gem says – reply to this

Re: LOU –

So you would rather read about amy winehouse and lily allan getting hammered and falling about the place? I think if i earned £90'000 a week like Wayne Rooney does and got paid £2.5 million for my wedding photos, i would happily spend that much on my wedding.

woooo… i give it 2 years
Emma says – reply to this

87

She looks so beautiful.
Nikki says – reply to this

88

Re: LOU –

If you have the money then why not spend it? That's like £40,000 to us normal people. Fuck it.

I'd spend a billion on my wedding if I could.

Oh, and by the way, their wedding was the second most talked about story of the week in the UK - Probably a bit more popular in London now, wouldn't you agree?

Your ignorance is clearly blissful.
Laura says – reply to this

89

Oh my God Angie, how ridiculous do you sound, so, according to you, the only place where interesting things happen or interesting people live is America, whatever.

Lovely dress, so wouldn't have paid £200,000 for it though, she looks kinda strange in that picture though.

I must admit,that is gorgeous!!!! Absolutely fab!!!
LOU says – reply to this

92

Re: Nikki –

I agree with what you're saying… when you have that much money you don't even care. But i guess my problem with her is she doesn't deserve her money. She hasn't earned it in my eyes, and that's my opinion, one which i am entitled to.

As for her wedding being the 2nd most talked about in the UK or whatever, jeez, how sad are us Brits! Is that all we can talk about? Colon's wedding! Sad me thinks. Very sad. There are much more important things in the world going on right now and we're discussing her wedding. Eeeek, and at this moment, i'm one of them! aaaaaaaaaah! hehe

Oh yeah, i couldn't give a shit about Lauren Conrad and all the other losers that are on this site. I just read it because Perez makes me laugh.

Carol says – reply to this

It looks like it took at least seven bed dustruffles to make that dress - it is laughable. People with taste, class and sophistication know to wear tailored, conservative clothing. A dress like that screams "I'm 15 and I love really, really frilly stuff! Look at all my RUFFLES!!"
aeryn says – reply to this

that dress is to die for!!! it would be even better with thin spaghetti straps though. i hate strapless wedding gowns…so overdone. i'm so sick of that look.
