The groom “told me he had practiced them in front of a mirror several times to commit them to memory,” says the attendee. “He didn’t make any mistakes.” And the couple’s 11-month-old daughter, North, made sure to capture the spotlight. Carried down the aisle by grandma Kris Jenner, says another source, “She clapped the whole way down.” • Reporting by JENNIFER GARCIA and STEVE HELLING For much more on Kim and Kanye’s wedding – including exclusive photos and details about her dress, the guest list, the bridal party and more – pick up this week’s issue of PEOPLE, on newsstands Friday [IMAGE All About Kim & Kanye’s Lavish Wedding More on Kim & Kanye’s Wedding: • From Europe with Love!
