Tenor Luciano Pavarotti married his longtime partner and producer Nicoletta Mantovani on Saturday in a celebrity-studded wedding and a song-filled, champagne and caviar reception that featured clowns and a carousel.
Hundreds of fans gathered outside Modena's main theater, the Teatro Comunale, to watch the bride, dressed in a dusty rose-colored Armani gown and toting a bouquet of pink roses, arrive for the nuptials with her father. She waved to the crowd before heading inside.
The couple's year-old daughter, Alice, was the official hostess of the wedding, and like her mother, wore a rose Armani dress and little pink ballet slippers, Pavarotti's publicist Terri Robson said.
Pavarotti, 68, and Mantovani, 34, have been living together since 1996, when their love story took gossip columns by storm. Mantovani had worked for Pavarotti during summers when she was a university student, and she now produces his Pavarotti & Friends concerts as well as other events.
Pavarotti had said days before the wedding that for him, getting married in a theater was appropriate because "I'm getting married in the church of a singer."
