Wedding Ring For American Beauty Mena Suvari
The American Beauty and the American Pie star Mena Suvari got married to her fiancé Simone Sestito in a private church ceremony in Italy on Saturday. They met three years ago at the Toronto Film Festival and they’ve been engaged for two years now. The wedding was held very close to Vatican City which is where the Sestito family live. Apparently Mena chose a wedding dress that covered her tattoos because she wanted the family to approve of how the wedding was conducted, especially considering that there are nuns in the family.
Mena Suvari has been modelling and acting since she was a child and while she made a name for herself in the TV serial America Pie, it was for the film American Beauty where she acted opposite Kevin Spacey that she was nominated for and won awards, including the BAFTA.Mena’s unusual name comes from an aunt and godmother who was named after the hotel which stands at the foot of the pyramids in Egypt.
Petite and blonde, she was married to Robert Brinkmann, eighteen years her senior but they got divorced in a few years ago. Sestito is six years younger than she is. She is said to have looked absolutely lovely at the wedding ceremony which was to be followed by a private reception close by. Mena’s next film is titled You May Not Kiss The Bride.
