First pictures: LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian's sunset wedding ceremony

 

The first pictures have emerged of LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian's sunset wedding ceremony.

The pair exchanged vows in front of just 40 guests at their seafront home in Malibu, California, on Friday evening.

The country singer, 28, wore a Reem Acra gown that was slashed to the thigh and carried a large bouquet of white flowers.

The groom, 37, who appeared to wipe away tears as they said 'I do', opted for black trousers, a white tuxedo jacket and open-collared white shirt for the occasion.

Their garden was decorated in rose petals and pillows that included phrases 'My whole heart for my whole life' and 'L & R', trimmed the outdoor furniture.

Some insiders have already pointed out a few similarities between Cibrian's first and second wedding - his ex wife Brandi Glanville wore a dress by the same designer in 2001 and they also wed in a seaside ceremony in spring.

Glanville , who has had several public feuds with Rimes, today insisted she wished the couple well.

She tweeted: 'I'm very happy that my children will have consistency in their lives while on their father’s time.'

Cibrian referenced the failed marriage in his wedding speech to guests, which included his seven-year-old Mason and four-year-old Jake.

The actor said: 'Someone loves the f****** microphone and that's me! We've both had much larger weddings before, about 100-150 people both, but we just wanted our closest of friends and family here with us tonight.

'The next one will be ever smaller though,' he joked.

'I love you all,' Rimes added: 'Now let's have some cake, bitches!'

Yesterday the newlyweds continued to celebrate their marriage, enjoying a meal at Malibu's Moonshadows restaurant with family and close friends.

And the couple couldn’t have looked more in love they indulged in a very public display of affection.

The pair arrived in a classic Chevy corvette convertible to start the day off in style.

Rimes was dressed in a revealing white crocheted Pucci dress with a plunging neckline and shielded her eyes from the sunshine in a pair of classic Ray Bans.

Eddie, who couldn’t take off his eyes off his new wife, was dressed in a checked shirt and navy trousers for the occasion.

The couple's wedding ceremony was held just days before an American TV channel will air an interview with Rimes, which sees her opening up about her 'messy' extramarital affair with Cibrian.

The singer, who began seeing Cibrian behind Sheremet's back, has admitted making mistakes and said she hadn't been taught how to 'let go the right way'.

'I have the strength [now] but I didn't at the time,' she said.

'It got really messy but I have learned a lot from that. I'm not glad it happened but I know why it did.'
Rimes married backing dancer Sheremet in 2002, but they separated seven years later after the singer cheated on him with her Northern Lights co-star.

The affair also ended Cibrian's eight-year marriage with wife Brandi Glanville, the mother of his two children.

Speaking to the Great American Country channel, Rimes confessed: 'I know I didn't do it the right way.

'I didn't have the tools to know how to do it the right way, how to let go the right way. I'd never been taught that.'

Rimes and Cibrian got engaged in December, when the actor proposed with a five-carat diamond ring from jeweller Brent Polacheck. The same designer crafted their wedding bands.
