Tina Knowles' Wedding Gown Was Gorgeous

by May Sofi

Often the most beautiful celebrities have even more beautiful parents. Queen Bey's mom, Tina Knowles married long-time boyfriend Richard Lawson in a stunning, high-fashion gown that blows traditional wedding dresses out of the water. Hey, those good genes had to have come from somewhere, and Beyoncé obviously got it from her mama. Good looks aren't the only thing Beyoncé inherited from her mom — it seems she acquired her impeccable sense of style too.

The beautiful Romona Keveza gown Knowles wore to her wedding featured an interesting asymmetrical neckline coupled with a metallic gold belt at the waist that gave the style just the right amount of edge. The floor-length, fitted silhouette accentuated her curves in all the right places, and the long-sleeve skintight shrug pulled it all together, making for a seriously chic look.

The simple yet elegant ensemble was both age appropriate for the 61 year-old, as well as suited for the location. The couple married on a yacht, which clearly calls for an all-white theme, don't you think? According to The Daily Mail, guests dressed in all-white threads, including Beyoncé, hubby Jay-Z and daughter Blue Ivy. The event sounds like a storybook fairytale, and the photos prove it to be true.
