Whether you've been waiting for months to see the Kimye wedding—or just waiting for it to be finis—your wait is almost over. Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are set to swap vows today! And if last's night's rehearsal dinner was any indication, the wedding is going to be epic.
Rather than break Glamour.com with 4,204,002 Kimye posts, I figured I'd keep things simple and update this post with details as they roll in. So come back here for all that latest Kimye wedding news (and pictures!) throughout the day. I'll share all my updates right here until the "they're married!" news breaks.
(The times below reflect the time in Florence—since it looks like the wedding guests are headed there—with the newest details on the top!)
7:09 P.M.: It's official! Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are married!
6:55 P.M.: The ceremony is under way! I think this super-blurry photo is from Italian TV. Is that the sisters in white? Squint!

6:18 P.M.: John Legend was spotted in Florence, and his wife, Chrissy Teigen, looks wedding-ready in this backseat selfie, so I think it's safe to assume they're on the guest list, which makes sense, since I've heard John might perform. A piano was spotted outside Forte di Belvedere yesterday, and Kanye was a guest at John and Chrissy's Italian wedding last September, so it all adds up. (North was just shy of three months, so I'm guessing Kim passed on their wedding. #nojudgment)
5:04 P.M.: Well, Monique Lhuillier just Insta'd a photo from Madrid, so I guess she's not Kim's wedding dress designer. (I'm assuming the designer will be on site and a guest at the wedding.)
4:25 P.M.: Haha. Kanye just Insta'd a pic of himself with his future wife—taken at yesterday's pre-wedding lunch at Valentino's chateau—and a little "trophy" emoji. I'm kind of amused.
4:04 P.M.:People is reporting that Kim—wearing an off-white silk dress—was spotted walking the grounds of Italy's Villa San Michele with baby North, Kris Jenner, Kourtney, Scott Disick, and Khloe. I'm guessing the ladies left for Florence right after the rehearsal dinner. (Makes sense, since no bride wants to fly on her wedding day.)
3:56 P.M.: With just two hours to go before wedding guests are set to arrive at Forte di Belvedere, Jonathan Cheban and Brittny Gastineau take a coffee break. (And do I spy Italian Diet Cokes?!)
2:33 P.M.: According to blurry photos, the groom has landed in Florence! It looks like he shared a plane with Scott Disick and Bruce Jenner and two or three guys I don't recognize. Meanwhile, another plane carrying more guests just left Paris.
2:23 P.M.:Us has pictures of "a spectacular wall of white flowers" at Florence's Forte di Belvedere—a larger version of the gift Kanye sent his future missus to celebrate Mother's Day earlier this month—and is reporting that the bride and groom will say "I do" in front of the wall.
12:39 P.M.: Looks like a second plane—carrying hairstylist Michael Silva, who was doing Kim's hair earlier in the week, and designer Rachel Roy, as well as Carla DiBello, a close friend of Kim's (not pictured here)—is about to take off. Carla captioned her photo "And were off to see the bride..." which makes me wonder if Kim secretly flew to Florence last night.
12:11 P.M.:Us Weekly is reporting that the bride and groom hired three-Michelin-star Italian restaurateur Giorgio Pinchiorri to cater their reception.
11:25 A.M.: Yep, au revoir, Paris!
11:15 A.M.: Well this is weird: It looks like Jen Atkin, who often styles Khloe's hair, is still cooling her heels in Paris. (Check out that sugar packet.) Maybe the wedding party and their glam squad are taking a later flight. (In other news, Jen's ring is magnifique!)
11:01 A.M.: Looks to me like these guests (including Balmain's Olivier Rousteing, LaLa Anthony, and longtime Kim confidante Jonathan Cheban) are in an airport. This snap is captioned, "Early morning with the crew...here we go.."
10:53 A.M.: Wedding guest Dave Grutman (with two of Kim's besties, Malika Haqq and LaLa Anothony) shares and Instagram snap with the location "Florence Bound." At 11:54 A.M., he deleted the pic. Maybe he decided the "Florence" was an overshare?
8:31 A.M.: Givenchy creative director Riccardo Tisci—often mentioned as the likely designer behind Kim's wedding dress—posts the last of three photos from a night out with Naomi Campbell, so I think we can rule him out as the dress guru.
Thoughts on Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's wedding day so far? What are you most looking forward to seeing?
For me it's the dress—ALWAYS the dress!
