Jimena's Dream Wedding

CRAZY FOR LOVE
It wasn't a Mexican or American who stole the Mexican singer's heart. The lucky guy is Christian Carlsen, a Danish-Brit (born of a German mother) who travels around the world in search of wood to build eco-design furniture.

THE CEREMONY WAS AT A FURNITURE STORE?
Yes, but not just any furniture store! The King´s Road Home, a store owned by Jimena's now-husband is located in the heart of Soho in Manhattan, where you're bound to see Bono, Lenny Kravitz, Jerry Hall, or Whoopie Goldberg picking up furniture and accessories for their home on any given day. But on this hot June day, the stars of the store were the newlyweds, accompanied by their family and close friends.

A SPECIAL WITNESS
They met at Alexia Camil's baptism. Jimena was two years old, but of course, neither of them remember their first encounter. Since childhood, they've been great friends, so actor Jaime Camil's sister quickly canceled all her plans and flew right to New York.
