Ashlee and Pete

Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz are married on Saturday night and the newlyweds confirmed to guests at their wedding that Ashlee is indeed pregnant and expecting for a child.

The Alice in Wonderland themed wedding was held in the backyard of Joe and Tina Simpson’s Encino estate. Approximately 150 guests attended the couple’s wedding, including Nicole Richie and Joel Madden, “Scrubs” actor Donald Faison and girlfriend Cacee Cobb.

Meanwhile Jessica Simpson who was accompanied by ex-boy Tony Romo, was Ashlee’s maid of honor while Pete’s English bulldog, Hemingway, served as the ring-bearer.

Ashlee wore an ivory lace Monique Lhuillier dress added with a diamond necklace and matching earrings, while Pete wore a Dior Homme tuxedo.

After escorting his youngest daughter down the aisle, the site reported that Joe Simpson told the guests funny and touching stories about Ashlee before beginning the wedding, frequently choking up during the ceremony. “They were all crying,” the source said, “it was very moving.”

Big sister Jessica was reportedly a bit glum during the wedding, but did give an “emotional, off-the-cuff” toast at one point, according to E!, saying that Pete and Ashlee’s relationship, “had inspired [her] to love again.” Wentz’s brother also gave a toast.

People magazine reportedly fork out 7 figures for Ashlee and Pete’s exclusive wedding photos that are featured on the magazine’s latest issue. In addition to that, photograph of Jessica and Tony dancing closely together were featured on the front page of the same issue to support the magazine’s claims that the pair are in fact still dating.

Could that be part of the deal?
