Well, ladies and gentlemen, the moment you all have been waiting for has finally arrived! The first official photos of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West as newlyweds have been released!

Last weekend, the wedding of the year took place as the couple was married in a truly lavish and over-the-top ceremony in Florence, Italy. 

One photo features the duo sharing their first kiss as man and wife in front of a beautiful white flower wall at the Forte di Belvedere while another image shows Kim and Kanye walking down the aisle after just saying their “I do’s.” You can even spot baby North and grandma Kris Jenner in the background!

These photos also give us a full look at Kim’s highly-anticipated wedding dress! 

Kim glowed in a white, Givenchy Haute Couture gown with a extremely long silk veil during the ceremony and Kanye wore a custom Givenchy tuxedo, as reported by E! Online. Kim’s dress was fitted by Givenchy atelier Riccardo Tisci in Paris. 

According to E!, the pair and 100 of their closest friends and family all partied at the reception, which featured a four-course Tuscan meal, a 7-tiered wedding cake, and Kim in a new, shorter dress by Balmain. 

Not only were guests treated to notable speeches by the groom and Kris and Bruce Jenner, but John Legend was also on hand to serenaded the couple with “All of Me” and a toast for the happy couple! Aww! 

Though many speculated that Beyonce and Jay Z would travel to Italy for the wedding, Queen B and her hubby did not attend. But Bey did send her congratulations to the newlyweds on Instagram!

Another guest missing from the wedding party was Kim’s brother, Robert Kardashian. Rob was in Paris a few days leading up to the ceremony, but he was spotted landing at LAX Saturday morning while Kim and Kanye were saying “I do.” Reports say Rob did not stay for the wedding because of his personal struggles with his weight, not because of an issue with Kim. 

Now that Kim and Kanye have tied the knot, the couple will travel to Ireland for a honeymoon and then return home to their estimated $11 million dollar mansion in Bel-Air!

Congrats, KimYe!
