American Idol judge Kara DioGuardi wed her fiance, Mike McCuddy, a general contractor, on July 5.

People Magazine quotes jeweler Neil Lane about DioGuardi's wedding bling: "She wanted something glamorous." Glamorous is right - The result was a 30-carat diamond-and-platinum bracelet and chandelier earrings set with 20 carats of diamonds with a price tag of $250,000.



The radiant bride wore a Vera Wang dress at the wedding held at the Prospect Harbor United Methodist Church.

Among the songwriter’s hits are "I Do Not Hook Up," with Kelly Clarkson; "Ain't No Other Man," with Christina Aguilera; and "Pieces of Me," with Ashlee Simpson-Wentz.
