In attendance were the bride's mother, Tina Knowles, her father/manager Mathew, her sister Solange, Destiny's Child singers Kelly Rowland and Michelle Williams, and the actress Gwyneth Paltrow, a friend of the couple. 50,000 to 60,000 white orchids from Thailand were ordered for the event and DJ Cassidy provided the tunes.
