You'll never believe what happened to Blake Lively's wedding dress...

This Hollywood actress tells Vogue the real story behind what happened to her gorgeous Marchesa wedding dress.

Ever wondered why we never saw a full-length picture of Blake Lively’s wedding dress? Because now we have the answer. It got burned, yes burned.

Blake, 26, married fellow actor Ryan Reynolds, 37, very privately in South Carolina 2 years ago. Blake told Vogue the custom Marchesa gown was singed during the reception:

“Florence Welch was singing at the reception, and they brought out these sparklers, and I’m watching her sing. I look down and my wedding dress has a big burn mark from one of these sparklers. Right on the front!”

Blake says she was “heartbroken” over the incident, but of course her funny-man husband quickly made sure to lighten up her mood.

“Ryan said, ‘Isn’t that beautiful … You’ll always remember that moment with Florence singing and the sparklers. You have that forever, right there, preserved.’ Now that’s my favorite part of the dress.”

The way that Ryan helps her put things into perspective in life is one of Blake’s favourite things about being married she told Vogue.

Ryan has even helped Blake with the launch of her lifestyle website Preserve, which went live today. While Blake is now focused on her website, which is part blog part store, she appears to have planned even further ahead and is thinking about expanding her party-of-two.

Blake said Ryan is “going to be a great father and leader and patriarch – he’s so meant to be all of those things. The fact that he lived so much before we got together, he’s the exact person that he should be. And so I get to share my life with the person he’s become, and we get to grow from there.”

We’re thrilled to see that things have certainly looked up since Blake’s dress got singed.
