April 2007 -- In 2005 pop sensation Anastacia released a CD entitled "Pieces of A Dream," and on April 21,
2007 her dream of a happily ever after with her former bodyguard Wayne Newton became a reality during a late afternoon ceremony
held at the Quinta Real Huatulco. This 28-suite retreat in the state of Oaxaca, Mexico sports
a whitewashed facade and 90-foot-tall twin domes that combine elements of both Mexican and Middle Eastern architecture.
Taking the arm of her mother, the bride clutched a bouquet of peach-colored roses as she began her walk down
the aisle in a pair of high-heeled, jewel-encrusted Rene Caovilla sandals. A row of urns brimming with kaleidoscopic flower
arrangements lined her path as she strolled toward the altar in a form-fitting, oyster-hued gown fashioned with a corset ribbon
back and diamond accents by designer Jenny Packham, whose creations have been worn by Halle Berry, Beyonce and Sarah Jessica
Parker.
During the ceremony, which was conducted by a shaman, 80 guests witnessed the bride and groom exchange wedding
bands engraved with the month and year of their union.
