Motherly bride Beyonce Knowles

Beyonce Knowles wore handmade wedding dress

Saturday, 12 April 2008

Beyonce Knowles' wedding dress was designed by her mother.

The 'Crazy In Love' singer, who married hip-hop mogul Jay-Z at his New York apartment in front of 40 guests last week, reportedly asked her mom Tina to create a long, white gown for her special day.

A source said: "Beyonce looked stunning. She wore a white dress with a low V-neck and thick straps."

Tina - who designed many of the matching outfits Beyonce and her former Destiny's Child bandmates wore when they performed - is also believed to have created a special dress for her daughter to party in after the intimate ceremony.

Meanwhile, PETA have sent the newlyweds a fake fur throw blanket in a bid to urge Beyonce to stop wearing animal pelts.

In a card accompanying the wedding present, the animal right campaigners wrote: "From all of us at PETA, we wish you much happiness in your life together. Please accept this faux-fur throw with many good wishes and a hope from us that together, you'll be a fur-free couple!"

Beyonce has been a fan of designer furs for several years and used fur in her fashion line House of Dereon, which she launched with her mother.
