Wearing a piece of her mother’s jewellery, Angelina’s special day took place exactly where she promised her mother it would – in France.

Speaking to People Magazine, Angelina revealed how the day was made all the more memorable thanks to Brad’s touching tribute to his wife’s late mother, during the ceremony at the family’s French estate, Chateau Miraval, on August 23.

The 39-year-old, who was extremely close to her mum, shared details of Brad’s beautiful tribute to Marcheline, who passed away in 2007 from ovarian cancer aged 56.

“Brad had a dedication to Marcheline engraved inside the chapel where we stood,” Ange told People.
