Here it is... the picture that we have all been hanging for - Coleen McLoughlin's £100,000 Marchesa wedding gown. Featured exclusively in the latest copy of OK! magazine, McLoughlin and her new hubby Wayne Rooney, were paid an estimated £2.5 million for the photo rights to their Italian wedding, held on the weekend. A staggering amount that only pales in comparison to the cool £5 million that the couple splurged on their special day.

So, what do you think of her dress? Read on to let us know, and to see more photos from the WAG wedding of the year...

According to OK! the couple, both 22, looked "blissfully happy" after being wed at the Villa Cervara abbey, outside Portofino on the Italian Riviera. Col's Marchesa wedding dress was one of three (!) that she wore on the day, and might I add that it echoes the designers' trademark sculptured ruffles.

Inside the issue (available on newsstands now) you can find every little detail possible on the wedding, including interviews with the bride and groom, exclusive pictures of them exchanging rings, even the cake and doves get their fifteen minutes of fame. At £2.5m, I am sure OK! wanted their monies worth...

Meanwhile, what are your real thoughts on Col's dress? Do you like/dislike it? Is it really worth the £100k spent? Tell us below.

Coleen McLoughlin's £100,000 Marchesa wedding gown - What do you really think? - Comments

    It fits better at the bust than SJP's Vivienne Westwood confection. Now that really bothered me. Though not as much as the fact that Wayne's collar isn't tucked in properly in half the OK photos. I like the comparison to Oyster mushrooms.. I thought more of sea creature. An unusual sort of coral. She does look pretty, but I still can't believe she's only 22. She looks far too poised and groomed to be so young!

    It's okay, but no way is it worth even a tenth of £100,000. She looks lovely, but she would have looked just as good in a £500 off-the-peg dress. I think the fussy pleated ruffles look a bit like a pile of oyster mushrooms - or that fungus that grows out of dead tree-stumps. It doesn't even fit properly at the bust...

    Is any dress worth 100k?

  • ash

    its a gorgeous dress and although it cost a fortune it isn't to over the top like jordans and cheryl coles, its very classy and she looks beautiful.

    It's definitely a case of the 'emperor's new clothes, but a price of anything is what somoene is willing to pay for it so good for Marchesa... besides, Hello basically paid for Coleen's fantasy so no harm done. She looks very pretty and as long as they are happy, that all that matters.
