Just a few weeks after big sis Jessica tied the knot, Ashlee Simpson married Evan Ross Sunday, reports ETOnline. Close family and friends gathered for the private outdoor ceremony at the Connecticut estate of Diana Ross, Evan's mom, who also reportedly sang "Endless Love" to the happy couple at the reception. Jessica was the matron of honor, while her two children, Maxwell and Ace, served as flower girl and ring bearer, notes Us Weekly. Bronx, Ashlee's 5-year-old son with ex-husband Pete Wentz, walked her down the aisle.

Ashlee, 29, wore a pearl-adorned, long-sleeved wedding dress complemented by "a whopping $750,000-worth of Neil Lane rubies and diamonds and a tiara," while her groom, 26, sported "a black velvet tux with white silk trim," according to Us. A rep notes to ET that "a rainbow appeared as guests arrived," while Diana Ross says in a statement that "the wedding went perfectly. … Loving family and friends, great music, great speeches from caring friends, and joyful children dancing the night away." As for pictures from the big day? The couple reportedly offered to sell them yesterday "to any magazines or papers that were interested" because no celeb magazines were vying for exclusive photos, notes the New York Daily News.
