Nikki Bella’s Wedding Dress Is Inspired by *This* Classic Movie Star

Now that we’ve gotten over the INSANELY huge ring John Cena presented to his longtime love Nikki Bella, it’s time to move onto other wedding deets — like the dress the bride-to-be will be walking down the aisle in!


Bella has reportedly found “the one,” and she’s dishing the deets about the sure-to-be-gorgeous gown to E!. “I said yes to the dress!” she excitedly told the outlet.

Bella’s garment was designed by none other than the fashion house Marchesa. Bella also recently paid a visit to the bridal boutique, posing next to a strapless chiffon number with a tulle skirt and delicate floral appliqué, captioning the shot with “OMG 😳💍👰🏽”

No word yet on exactly which Marchesa confection she chose, but we do know which famous bride John Cena’s ladylove was inspired by. “And then I saw this dress and I was like, ‘That’s Grace Kelly.’ Like that is what I want so bad,” Bella said. “All the girls warned me, ‘Just so you know, like even though you love it, sometimes when you try it on it doesn’t work.’ I put it on and I was like, ‘This is the one.’”

Kelly has become a rather popular source of inspiration for Hollywood as of late, with Lindsay Lohan recently channeling the star for her big red carpet comeback and Miranda Kerr showing off her own custom Grace Kelly-inspired Dior wedding gown.

The professional wrestler also said she was won over not only by the brand’s breathtaking fashion but its customer service too. “When I was at the spring shows, I attended Marchesa, and… when they handed [me] a glass of Perrier Jouet and a macaroon, I was like, ‘Okay, yes.’”

Either way, twin sis Brie Bella wholeheartedly approves. “It’s stunning!” she revealed. “She walked out and I was just like, ‘Whoa!’”
