Well, at least that's what was happening in the States. In Canada, it was a slightly different story. Here we have Celine Dion's massive 1994 wedding dress when she married her manager Reene Angelil on December 17th, 1994.
The seven-pound crystal tiara was from another universe. Well, Celine has always been different.
