Kendra Wilkinson & Hank Baskett Got Hitched!
Former Hugh Hefner girlfriend and star of the E! reality TV series Girls Next Door Kendra Wilkinson married her NFL beau Hank Baskett in a lavish ceremony at the Playboy Mansion here in SoCal yesterday evening. Here are a few photos of Kendra and Hank’s nuptials yesterday:
In a wedding fit for a princess, Playboy Playmate Kendra Wilkinson wed her NFL player beau Hank Baskett at her onetime residence, the Playboy mansion in Los Angeles’s exclusive Holmby Hills, on Saturday, PEOPLE confirms. At around 6:45 p.m., the Playmate and former Girls Next Door star, 23, walked down the aisle in a white dress, dripping in more than $100,000 worth of platinum jewelry by Michael Barin, including drop earrings, a pendant and bracelet. The groom also wore white, as did the groomsmen, while the bridesmaids were in lavender. Among the hundreds of guests were former boyfriend and Playboy founder Hugh Hefner and fellow Playmate Bridget Marquardt, who was among the bridal party. The bride and groom married out in the open on a lawn, and there were white rose petals and flower wreaths decorating the aisle. “She was beaming,” says an eyewitness. The wedding week kicked off with date night Monday evening at the premiere of Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, where Wilkinson told PEOPLE, “I feel great! We’re just ready to say our ‘I do’s’ and just go on our honeymoon and we’re ready to be married.” Her sole concern? “Tripping down the aisle,” she admitted. Wednesday afternoon the bride-to-be relaxed with some personal pampering and girl time with her mother, grandmother and bridal party at Face to Face Los Angeles, a salon in Studio City. The happy couple announced some other big news earlier this month – their first child, due on Christmas day.
I don’t know that I will ever truly understand the whole Hefner/multiple girlfriends thing so it seems totally odd that Kendra would be wed at the Playboy Mansion but I guess it should make sense? I dunno, don’t care … but I suppose congrats are in order for the happy couple who are just now beginning their life together. I suspect that this ceremony will be featured in some capacity on Kendra’s new E! reality TV series Kendra so we have that to look forward to. Again, congrats to the happily wedded couple … here’s hoping they are in it for the long haul.

Why get married at the Playboy Mansion? These people are so weird.

I personally think Holly was the *only* girlfriend, and the others were “for show”. Kendra made a few comments on her show that made me go “HMMmmmmmmm” and lead me to this conclusion.

Wow, I cant believe shes preggers!
And where was Holly?

seriously, who would marry a girl just a few months after she broke up with her creepy, disgusting, 4-way relationship with an old man…those girls are all so gross

I loveee Kendra. She’s hilarious. I just hope they last forever! Can’t believe she’s pregs..crazy woman! good luck guys!

I, personally, love Kendra and her new show. But seriously, where is Holly? I’ve yet to see her make an appearance on her new show unlike Bridget.
Is there some drama we don’t know about or something?

Holly was there people – were you blind…
Hef looked like he and Holly were avoiding each other… but the show could just of been edited like that.
Make us see what they want us to see…
Anyway personally i would not want my daughter to be a playmate… but I think alot of it is for show… they prob not all his girlfriends…
Well I wish all the best for Hank and Kendra, they make a cute couple!
