Kerry Washington exchanged vows in a hush-hush wedding ceremony with NFL player Nnamdi Asomugha last June.
Location: Hailey, Idaho.
So much for a sure bet. Odds were high that Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston would tie the knot this summer. Not to each other again, but to their respective partners--Angelina Jolie and Justin Theroux. With summer coming to a close in a few weeks, it looks like we'll have to wait until the fall or winter for both of these highly anticipated ceremonies to take place.
Still, Hollywood bridal season didn't fail to disappoint this summer. In fact, it took several unpredictable turns--which surprised even the most seasoned celebrity wedding watchers. Kerry Washington got tongues wagging when she married NFL player Nnamdi Asomugha in a super secret ceremony in Idaho. Although the "Scandal" star continues to remain mum about the nuptials, she debuted her bridal bling earlier this month. It included two bands--one diamond-encrusted and the other a simple gold design.

Parker, who co-founded Napster and served as the first president of Facebook, and his singer/songwriter bride created a lavish enchanted forest theme in Big Sur, California--which cost a jaw-dropping $10 million. More than 350 guests were asked to wear custom-designed costumes made by Lord of the Rings wardrobe designer Ngila Dickson.

Location: A civil union at Chateau des Conde in Vallery, France was followed by a religious ceremony in the village chapel.
It was no surprise when Halle Berry wed Olivier Martinez last month. She's due to give birth to their son later this summer, so the couple and Berry's 5-year-old daughter Nahla jetted off to the groom's native country of France to seal the deal. However, the small ceremony caught many fans and industry insiders off guard as they were looking forward to a more star-studded affair.
