Donald Trump, America's new president-elect. Surely there is certainly nothing new about that name anymore.
Defeating an apparently more-popular Hillary Clinton in the recent USA elections ensured that his name became well and truly known by those who (surprisingly) did not hear of him as the Billionaire.
Come January 2017, he will be sworn in as America's 45th President, and standing beside him as the new first Lady, will be Melania Trump, the former model that he married in 2005.
That wedding ceremony was as grand as grand weddings come, and here are 7 things that prove it.

Yep! You read that absolutely right.
In case you did not know, Donald Trump could easily be the richest man that ever became America’s president, as portrayed in the astoundingly beautiful jewel he got to back up his proposal speech.
To Melania, who, by the way, is his third wife, he gave a 12 karat, emerald-cut Graff ring that was worth $1.5 million!

The bride Melania Trump hired New York event designer, Preston Bailey and in her words, asked him to create a “very classic, very white” wedding.
Earn the Necklace reports that “wedding chairs and tables were swathed in white lace and satin fabrics, and Bailey created five-foot tall floral centerpiece candelabras.”
