The couple tied the knot at 6.30pm in a thirty-minute service watched by their families, and celebrity guests including Ryan Seacrest, Lindsay Lohan, Eva Longoria, Venus and Serena Williams, Avril Lavigne and Demi Lovato.
Kim's spokesperson revealed the bride wore an ivory custom-designed strapless Vera Wang gown with full tulle skirt, basque waist and hand-pieced Chantilly lace appliqué on the bodice and 'epic' train.

Her veil remained off her face for the walk down the aisle with step father Bruce Jenner, and included a jeweled headpiece with diamonds that 'dripped on to Kim's forehead,' according E! Online.
She wore Guiseppe Zanotti shoes, and exchanged weddings rings with Kris designed by her good friend Lorraine Schwartz, who also designed her stunning engagement ring.

Kris was spotted talking to staff on the grounds before the wedding wearing a strapless white gown with an over-the-top bow across the bodice.

The magazine claims that after learning of all the filming equipment that will be inside the venue to shoot the party for Kim's E! wedding special, the fire marshal warned Kardashian to cut down the list.
Kim urged her fans to leave messages on her virtual wedding guestbook, adding: 'Even though you can’t all be there to help me celebrate today, it would mean so much to me if you would sign my ‘Virtual Wedding Guestbook‘ by leaving a comment below!'
Her mother and manager, Kris Jenner, is also very excited and barely got a wink of sleep last night.
Taking to Twitter, she wrote: 'Morning dolls!! Wow @kimkardashian wedding day is finally here! I wanted to sleep in but too excited.'
Kim and Kris have confirmed they will not be honeymooning until next year. Kim was already scheduled to begin filming the second series of Kourtney & Kim Take New York in Manhattan before Kris' surprise proposal in May.
So the couple's first home will be the penthouse suite at the Gansevoort Park Avenue, the NY Post reports.
