My Dream Wedding: Johnny Weir
1.9.2012
By Out.com Editors
Although the flamboyant figure skater didn’t compete in the 2010–11 season, Johnny Weir continues to make headlines. Since he married Victor Voronov (lovingly known as “Vitya”) on New Year's Eve, we wondered what he’s planning for his fabulous, frozen nuptials.
Location?
The Moscow suburb of Rublevka in a park in the middle of winter
Attire?
White tuxedos and bowties. Viktor & Rolf for me, and Tom Ford or Dior Homme for him. I would wear a sable coat, while my fiancé would wear a cashmere and broadtail coat both by Russian designer Valentin Yudashkin. Shoes would be Christian Louboutin or Casadei. Guests would be given a fur—so they don’t freeze.
First dance?
Louis Armstrong’s “What a Wonderful World,” then “Hava Nagila” and the Hora
The ring?
A rose gold wedding band with a small emerald for luck and two adequate diamonds. I’d give my fiancé a platinum band for strength with one small “hidden” diamond for sparkle.
Wedding cake?
A three-tiered seafood platter from Balthazar, and I wouldn’t hate a red velvet cupcake moment.
Wedding singer?
Christina Aguilera, obviously
The officiant?
Albert Einstein, Mary, Mother of God, and a couple of rabbis
The ceremony reading?
A poem by Pushkin
The flowers?
Peonies, white roses, and birch branches
The honeymoon?
Somewhere Vitya could scuba-dive, and I could get a tan

I WANT THOSE SHOES! anyone know who and where i can get those shoes!
I am totally wowed and prpeaerd to take the next step now.
After his remarx in New York Mag I had hopes on a major FU with Weir marrying a woman. I'll take the hit instead. My straight BFF won't marry me but this crazy female will. He's got a catch in that hot little Russkie lawyer. Wish a forever marriage on them. Weir true Olympian you inspire me many ways.
Congrats!
My wife and I, married 37 years, [I'm gay, she is not but supports me and gay causes] have always enjoyed the phenomenal showmanship of Johnny Weir's skating. I wish I could have attended their wedding. I taught in Moscow and found their people to be most generous, kind and helpful.
We wish you a most wonderful and joy filled life Mr. Weir and Mr. Vitya, and a life where all your dreams come true.
God bless you,
Nelson Smith

But that's just it, Johnny darling. You rarely tan. Sweet dreams! Btw, where was Victor during yours & Meg's dinner with Bevy? Just curious. Just saying.
This is hilarious! The more I read/see of him, the more I like him.
He got the honeymoon he wanted, after all.
