The 'Frida' star and the French billionaire - who originally tied the knot in a civil ceremony in Paris on Valentine's Day - wed for the second time in a star-studded ceremony in Venice, Italy, yesterday (25.04.09).
The 42-year-old actress wore a Balenciaga wedding gown and a long veil as she exchanged vows with Pinault, 46, at Venice's opera house La Fenice.
The couple's 19-month-old daughter Valentina was a flower girl alongside Pinault's son Francois, 10, and daughter Mathilde, 8, from a previous marriage.
About 150 family and friends attended the ceremony, including Penelope Cruz, Edward Norton, Woody Harrelson, Olivier Martinez, Ashley Judd, Charlize Theron, Bono, Ziyi Zhang, Anna Wintour and former French President Jacques Chirac.
Guests wore black tie with black and gold masks as they arrived for the ceremony, which started at 7pm.
Wedding celebrations kicked off on Friday (24.04.09) with a masquerade ball in Venice's Punta Della Dogana.
Salma recently vowed she would never splash out a fortune on a marriage ceremony.
She said: "I think a wedding is about love, friends, family and fun. I think spending millions of dollars on a wedding is ridiculous and it has never been my dream. I would never do that."
Actress Salma Hayek went for 17 months being a single mom to daughter Valentina Paloma, born in September 2007.
Then she married her French billionaire baby daddy, François-Henri Pinault, at the 6th Arrondisement City Hall in Paris on Valentine's Day 2009
Now she’s planning another wedding. A really big one. In Venice.
According to People, Antonio Banderas spilled the beans about the upcoming nups in Spain earlier this week
He said he plans to join wife Melanie Griffith in Venice, Italy for friend Hayek's wedding this weekend.
Also invited: her close pal Penélope Cruz.
The wedding features a traditional rehearsal dinner Friday, followed by a ceremony Saturday at the Palazzo Grassi, a historic white-marble palace owned by the Pinault family.
Touching detail: The Palazzo is where Salma met François-Henri.
He threw a big bash there in 2006 and she attended, and the rest is romantic history.
