Selling Sunset star Christine Quinn wed 41-year-old millionaire businessman Christian Richard, who is a retired software engineer, in Los Angeles in December 2019. 

And on Friday the blonde beauty's wedding photos were shared with DailyMail.com ahead of the debut of season three of her popular reality TV show.

The 31-year-old bride looked lovely even though she was sick with coronavirus at the time. Her off-the-shoulder black gown was a princess style and full of lace and sheer panels as her groom was dapper in a black tuxedo.

Christine's wedding ceremony was a Gothic winter wonderland in all white with a reception that had a red theme. 

They tied the knot at a downtown Los Angeles cathedral in front of 75 friends and family, and even had black swans in attendance.

there is really no reason a wedding dress has to be white,

if she wants it why not

Queen Victoria started the white dress thing, women would wear their best dresses for their weddings,

I actually really love it!

I like the gown and the wedding venue. A black wedding gown is different and can be just as lovely as the traditional white. I didn't wear a gown for my wedding (wore a sundress instead), but would have considered black if I had chosen a gown.

Just beautiful!!!!!!I love the dress and the setting.....

Thought this was interesting...The tradition of wearing a black dress comes from Spanish origin: traditional brides with Roman Catholic faith were obliged to wear black wedding dresses as a symbol of devoting their marriage until death, a slightly dark yet powerful symbol behind the union of a couple.

@silkyk 

Great insight as to the origin, thank you so much!

BEAUTIFUL!  I do wish they hadn't done the lingerie look through the torso though.

I have no idea who these folks are but, wow!  The dress is stunning.  The photos are brilliant.    I especially like the second one down, shot from behind them with her turning around and the snow.  Just wow!

Black is my favorite color so I have no problem with a black wedding dress, either.

The dress is gorgeous & wow looks great for their wedding..  I have mixed feelings for a black gown but this one seems so appropriate..  It looks so formal with a tiny bit of omg, LOL .
