Like many girls thinking about one day being a bride, Mena Suvari dreams of having a fairy tale wedding.
E! Online reported that Suvari showed off her serious rock of an engagement ring at the launch party for Signorelli’s “Love” collection, which benefits Susan G. Komen for the Cure, at Planet Blue Wednesday.
Not only is the actress wearing a huge, sparkly diamond, but she revealed that her fiancé, Simone Sestito, actually designed the ring especially for her. How sweet!
“I really want it to be romantic and like a fairy-tale wedding,” Suvari told E! News of her second trip down the aisle. “It’s all very new to me. Even though I have been down that road before, I never have done any of these preparations so . . . there’s a lot of stuff to do.”
Suvari wants the wedding to be in Italy and is planning to check out locations next week when she’s at the Rome Film Festival for the premiere of her new movie, Garden of Eden.
As for the fairy-tale princess wedding dress? “I want to work with my friend Stacy, who designs Alice + Olivia, to design a dress,” said Suvari.
Suvari became engaged to music producer/concert promoter Simone Sestito in July 2008. He proposed during their vacation in Jamaica.
Suvari’s first marriage in March 2000 to Robert Brinkmann ended in May 2005 due to irreconcilable differences.
