EXCLUSIVE: Gisele Bundchen and Tom Brady Say "I Do!"
THURSDAY FEBRUARY 26, 2009
It's official!
Gisele Bundchen and Tom Brady wed today at the St. Monica Catholic Church in Santa Monica, Calif., Usmagazine.com confirms.
The bride, 28, donned a form-fitting ivory lace strapless gown with a trumpet skirt, scalloped edges, long train and a floor-length veil with attached handmade satin roses and attached satin headband, all by Dolce & Gabbana. Her three dogs also wore matching Dolce & Gabbana floral lace collars.
Dolce & Gabbana most recently dressed Fergie for her January nuptials to Josh Duhamel.
The ceremony -- which began at dusk -- was "very small and intimate," a source tells Us, adding that guests mostly consisted of immediate family. Brady's son with ex-girlfriend Bridget Moynahan, John Edward Thomas Moynahan, was also present.
(Fitting, as Bundchen once described her ideal wedding as "a simple ceremony...I don't like parties, I prefer something more intimate, just for the closest people.")

Reps did not immediately return calls.
The Brazilian-born supermodel has been dating the New England Patriots quarterback, 31, since 2006.
A pal close to the couple told Us Bundchen and Brady are perfect together.
"She's definitely 'The One,'" the source said. "She really makes him comfortable and just happy."

Engagement rumors began to surface about the couple late last year. First, TMZ.com announced Brady popped the question Dec. 24 on a private plane, then People claimed they planned to wed in Costa Rica.
Bundchen, however, slammed both reports as false.
"Someone deduced I was getting engaged...I don't know how people are so creative," she told Brazilian magazine Caras Gi last month after receiving over 100 e-mails from pals asking about the engagement.
The couple purchased an $11.7 million plot of land in a gated community in the Brentwood neighborhood of Los Angeles late last year.
