Denise Richardschose a very unconventional wedding look for her recentnuptials to Aaron Phypers— and in a new interview with PEOPLE, theReal Housewives of Beverly Hillsstarreveals that the lace romper design was exactly what she envisioned for her special day.
“I didn’t want to do a traditional wedding dress,” Richards tells PEOPLE exclusively. “I wore a traditional dress for my first wedding, so I wanted something different this time.”
Designer Mark Zunino only had 24 hours to complete the design, which featured a detachable tulle skirt.
“My dress was actually a romper which was perfect since we left the reception on Aaron’s motorcycle,” Richards explains. “I didn’t take the tulle skirt off until I got on his bike. I loved the skirt so much I wore it the entire evening.”

As for Richards, she chooses to ignore Internet noise.
Even though theyjust confirmed their engagement last week, the couple has been dating for over a year.
“Aaron and I have been together since June 2017. We kept the engagement private,” she shares. “He really wanted to marry on September 8 because eight means infinity. We called [wedding planner] Mindy Weiss and she did it less than 48 hours and it was beautiful.”
