Mariah Carey Marries Again
Mariah Carey and husband Nick Cannon have renewed their wedding vows in a fairytale style ceremony at Disneyland to toast their fifth anniversary. The couple who have said “I do” four times already (once each year that passes it seems), renewed their vows at the top of the Eiffel Tower last year in Paris. But never one to be out shined, Carey managed to find a way to top her other celebrations and had Disneyland in Anaheim, California shut down so she could marry her husband again. The 43 year old singer dressed like a princess for the occasion, arriving in front of Magic Kingdom castle in a horse drawn, pumpkin shaped carriage. She wore a corseted ivory dress with a dramatic ruffle detail skirt and train, and the ‘Hero’ singer donned a glittering diamond tiara with matching earrings and necklace.
Carey posted a series of videos on her Vine page and fans got a glimpse into the behind the scenes on her special day. The couple’s two year old daughter Monroe, followed her mother’s lead with another princess inspired white gown with white ribbons mind instead of a tiara on her head. However, Mariah is happy to embrace her diva side and in a message on Twitter the songstress wrote, “Slowly making our way to the freezing cold guests #donthatemebecauseimadiva #cinderella.” Then mother and daughter can be seen making their way to Disneyland in the carriage being drawn by two white horses as Carey wiped tears from her eyes. She took to Twitter again to send her love to her 32 year old husband, “On our way to renew our vows. I love you @NickCannon shut down Disneyland KKLB.”
Speaking of Cannon himself, he only appeared in a few of the videos seen mainly holding hands with their son Moroccan, who was wearing a cute mini white tuxedo while waiting for his mother and twin sister. Carey and Cannon also used the opportunity in Disneyland to celebrate the twins’ second birthday which no doubt they thoroughly enjoyed. Mariah and Nick married on April 30th 2008 at Carey’s private estate in the Bahamas after a mere six weeks dating.
