Korn singer Jonathan Davis married Brittany Parisi earlier this month on July 3, as People has just reported.
Where Did the Wedding Take Place and Who Attended?
Davis and Parisi exchanged vows at the Neighborhood Church of Palos Verdes in Palos Verdes Estates, California. The couple was surrounded by 80 guests, which included “their band family and blood family,” according to People, with each current member of Korn present.
Last year, while on tour, the Korn frontman asked Parisi to marry him, positioned in front of Italian painter Sandro Botticelli’s “The Birth of Venus.” The artwork also served as the wedding’s primary influential theme with the aim of invoking Florence, Italy from the Californian coastline.
Parisi told People that Davis surprised her with a museum trip to the Uffizi Gallery. She says she has “always been obsessed” with her Italian heritage and has a particular interest in the Medici family, the commissioners of Botticelli’s aforementioned work.

What Food Was on the Wedding Menu?

Corn wasn’t on the menu, by the way.

Did Anyone Play Bagpipes at the Wedding?
Yes, but it wasn’t Jonathan Davis, like he does on the Korn song “Shoots and Ladders.”
Bagpipe veteran of 50 years Aaron Shaw played as Davis arrived, later reprising his role to lead guests from the ceremony to cocktail hour and again from cocktail hour to the reception, where guests were then welcomed by award-winning jazz musicians.
