Christina Aguilera Has No Regrets Over Millions Spent on Wedding  8/15/06

Pop star Christina Aguilera has no regrets about spending $2 million on her wedding to marketing executive Jordan Bratman, because she never thought she would actually tie the knot.

The Beautiful singer's traumatic past forced her to become fiercely independent and focused on her career, at the expense of personal relationships.

She tells Allure magazine, "I was never one of those girls who couldn't wait to be married, who couldn't wait for the white dress.

"That was so not me. I always felt my career was first. Nothing was going to distract me. That's another reason I just never thought I'd be married at 25."

The star spared no expense when it came to her nuptials, splashing out on a Christian Lacroix couture gown with a long ruffled train and a rosary studded with diamonds.

The ceremony was held at a Napa Valley, California, estate last November (05) in a newly built Renaissance-style temple with a hand-painted ceiling.

Aguilera wanted a winter theme and had chandeliers covered in crystal strands, and tables strewn with flowers dipped in silver glitter.

She even hired a 17-piece orchestra to play At Last, a song her idol Etta James made famous, so she could serenade her groom.

The Ain't No Other Man star adds, "Ok, it was somewhat over the top, but I'm not one to look at the cost of everything!"
