WHO's WHO? 
*Beatrice is a member of the ancient aristocratic House of Borromeo--a family that has owned the Borromean Islands in Italy since the 16th century.
*She has done some modeling previously but in case you are wondering she really has no job. Hello!! She's a Borromeo socialite!
*And Pierre, well, his Wikipedia states that he's a "businessman" and is part owner of his uncle--Prince Albert's--construction company Engeco. So, yeah, he also doesn't really work. he loves sailing and going to parties. What else would you expect darlings?

Palace Wedding: The civil ceremony itself was an intimate affair, attended by 70 guests and taking place in the reception room reserved for the reigning sovereign's official family functions at the distinctive salmon-pink Prince's Palace (lower photo) and Salon des Glaces (top photo)
