Couple of the Week: Avril Lavigne and Deryck Whibley
You might not like the music the couple Avril Lavigne, 22, and Deryck Whibley make but they sure look cute especially when you aren’t sober. In a way you have to praise Avril’s effort from not doing the rock ‘n’ roll wedding everybody expected of her. They did it the way every girl dreams of white dress exclusively designed by Vera Wang and a small gathering with their friends and family though the paparazzi had a field day invading their privacy with their huge lenses.
According to Avril on the April issue of Jane via People: “I wanted to be like, ‘Oh, let’s totally have a rock ‘n’ roll, goth wedding.’ But at the same time I was like, ‘I’ve been dreaming about my wedding day since I was a little girl. I have to wear the white dress.’ I wanted to be a princess, okay? People thought I would have done, like, some black wedding dress, and yeah, I would have. But at the same time I was thinking about our pictures, and I wanted—like, that’s why I have this ring—I wanted to be in style. (She holds up the hugest Barbie-dream-bauble diamond ring ever.) It’s a classic. I didn’t want to be, like, 20 years later, ‘Oh, why did I wear my hair like that? It’s not cool now.’”
The media-declared bubblegum punk princess said of the four-year older Deryck, a fellow Canadian and the lead singer of Sum 41, “I’m the best thing that’s ever happened to him… He doesn’t do drugs. Clearly, he used to, because he talked about it, but I wouldn’t be with someone who did, and I made that very clear to him when we first started dating.”
Avril and Deryck married July 10 last year in front of 110 guests at a private estate in Montecito, California.
The two started dating in 2004. The next year they were engaged in Venice, Italy. Deryck surprised her with a gondola ride and a romantic picnic.
Avril credits marriage to Deryck for turning her into a more mature, calmer person though she insists she hasn’t completely tamed her wild ways: “I still have my boyfriend-bashing songs!”
Good for you Avril!
