But, back to that dress. Carolina Herrera told People that she drew inspiration from a source you wouldn't expect to hear in the same sentence as "Jessica Simpson" — a famous portrait of Empress Elisabeth "Sissi" of Austria painted in 1865. Simpson told the designer she wanted to look regal, and that's exactly what she got.

For the veil, however, Herrera deviated a bit from Sissi's — although the empress does have a surprisingly current music-festival-chic 'do. Click through to see how Jessica was able create a look that's both modern and classic at the same time.

"I saw my gorgeous wife coming towards me and she was crying. I think my heart exploded a bit," Johnson told People. Adorable. (People)
