Coco Rocha got married over two months ago but people are still talking about her storybook wedding to James Conran. First fashion watchers got a glimpse of the 21-year-old Canadian model wearing her custom Zac Posen gown and now Coco has decided to share a little more. Earlier today, the model took to her blog " OhSoCoco" to share her wedding video with fans. Coco writes:
Within this blog you often see into my professional life but, once I saw these films I realized that though personal, they were too beautiful to keep to myself. The first film is just 3 minutes long and is perfect for those of you who may not have much time. The second film is an expanded 18 minute version and contains some lovely interviews. I'm happy to present to you two short films documenting our wedding in France, the happiest day of my life. Here's the stunning 3 minute teaser film that Coco is sharing with the world:
Coco + James // Teaser from Americana Cinema on Vimeo. Romantic and absolutely beautiful. You can also check out the 18 minute version on Coco's site. www.ohsococo.blogspot.com

Just to set the record straight Lynore, at no time did I suggest that all hard work is rewarded with an affluent lifestyle.
Of course the majority of people work their tails off and will never will see the kind of money that select few do. Fortunately, most of the affluent ones do a lot of good, including charity work and they donate large sums of money that in the end benefit us all. Can we not just recognize a beautiful wedding without judging and criticizing the couple involved?

I thought it looked like it was a lovely day for her but I have to reply to Linda's and M&M's comment regarding hard work = equaling exorbitant wealth or affluence.
My mother has been a nurse for over 30 years. She currently manages an emergency department of a community hospital in a low income neighbourhood in addition to being a mother of 3 and being involved with various community organizations. She is the complete antithesis of lazy. She makes a good income and could work circles around Coca ten times over even now being more than twice her age. There is no way she could afford an event like that be it a wedding or otherwise.
Coca's level of wealth is attained by very very few people regardless of their dreams, hard work and/or education and for you to suggest otherwise merely perpetuates the fairytale that is achievement ideology. To place the source of one's lack of affluence solely within the individual without consideration for external circumstances or an understanding of how class systems replicate themselves is ridiculous and naive.
I suppose my mother, or countless others like her, are just too comfortable and lazy to get off their ass and reach their true potential to be uber rich and twirl in a stair case wearing Zac Posen. How unfortunate indeed.

It is a beautful wedding indeed...something all of us secretly would love to have for one day; married or not. However, we have to realize she has the champagne taste (with money) while we have the ginger ale taste (having to live in a budget)...the fashion industry pays high demands for small frame bodies to last only for a short few years...most of us are not shaped like that...we are endowed, full figured women, who can fry up and meal or two with one hand, carry a baby or grocery bag on the other and smile to make everyone feel better about their lives...
In essence...good video for a wedding...awfully cruel to flaunt it.
Hear, Hear to all the quadrouple W's...We Women Who Work!!!
Listen to Donna Summers "She works hard for a living" and you'll be humming that forever...

Wow, what a bunch of nasty negative comments. It really is possible to help in third world countries and also be happy for those who have worked hard and now have an affluent lifestyle. Congratulations to the bride and groom and a wish for a lifetime of happiness. Thank you for sharing part of your most beautiful wedding day.

WHo the heck is Coco Rocha? Beautiful photos though... I wonder how many people in Pakistan and Haiti they could have helped with that money?

Did not feel one bit of emotion watching this video as it was far too staged. I agree with yvonne, looks more than a commercial for an expensive product.

My favorite part is that none of the PEOPLE that claim to be friends with Coco were in the movie.

This was beautiful. In fact I almost cried. A fairytale wedding indeed.

Is anyone else as sick of this self absorbed stick creature as I am? I dont care about her and her stupid wedding. She is inane and vapid.

Somebody on here is not dreaming big enough. Anyone can have this wedding and lifestyle. Problem is everyone is too lazy to get off their comfortable asses and put the time and effort into reaching their true potential in life. Nothing comes for free and most never DREAM BIG ENOUGH!
What should you be doing in your life today, not tomorrow, to make it better. Start there, start working and start dreaming BIGGER!
Ask CoCo how hard she had to work to get there. I think you would be very surprised.
Cool wedding by the way.

Yes, it is a gorgeous and moving film .... would make a great commercial for some type of expensive product. Oh if only all girls could have weddings like this, dance around, watch fireworks ..... let's keep perpetuating the myth out there that yes, all this can be yours. Good for CoCo but keep it private, don't put it out there for our daughters to think everyone could have this kind of day.

This is the most gorgeous wedding I have ever seen...the bride is absolutely stunning in her Zac Posen gown, and the groom is devilishly handsome. A true fairytale.
