subject: Blake Lively Helped To Design Her Own Wedding Dress. [print this page] The Gossip Girl actress - who married actor Ryan Reynolds in a surprise ceremony in Mount Pleasant, South Carolina, last month - collaborated directly with Marchesa
designer Georgina Chapman to ensure she walked down the aisle in her dream dress. Blake Lively is a woman who knows what she wants, and isn't afraid to ask for it.
According to Tara Gurard, the wedding planner who organized Blake Lively and Ryan Reynold's secret September wedding, the bride knew exactly what she wanted for the
ceremony -- and was determined to get it! Gurard told People on Monday: "She had 250 photos, and she wanted all those elements in her wedding."
The bride was also involved in the creation of her wedding dress, which she helped design along with Marchesa co-founders Georgina Chapman and Keren Craig. The duo
told People that working with Lively was a great experience.
Chapman, who owns the brand with Keren Craig, told USMagazine.com: "Blake has such an innate style. I've worked with her so many times and know her so well."
The blonde Savages star - who is well known for her love of fashion - wore a custom-made beaded gown, featuring a silk tulle bodice and rose-gold embroidery.
The Marchesa designer praised the 25-year-old actress's sense of style and said she "has a very clean sense of fashion . . .she was very involved".
Another source said Lively "was a creative bride with a clear vision of what she wanted".
Chapman said she enjoyed working with Blake on her dress and she looked "very gorgeous", as she exchanged vows with her Green Lantern beau of one year at Boone Hall
Plantation and Gardens.
She said: "We're friends. It was wonderful to spend time with her."
Pictures and more details from the couples wedding are set to appear in the December issue of "Martha Stewart Weddings" magazine.

At their ceremony, Ryan and Blake recited vows they had written themselves.
A source explained: "They promised to support and love each other, and to make each other laugh.
"Ryan said he would treasure Blake - she said she would adore him. The whole time they were beaming."
The happy couple and their guests were entertained by Florence the Machine singer Florence Welsh, who performed a rendition of "Somewhere Over The Rainbow" at the
reception.
