Natalie Portman took a break from veganism while she was pregnant with her son Aleph, but on her wedding day the 31-year-old actress was back to her old habits.

People magazine reports that the wedding reception's menu was restricted to vegan dishes only, in line with what Portman herself eats, and at least one item reflected her new husband Benjamin Millepied's nationality.

Rather than wedding cake, attendees enjoyed French macarons.

Their wedding decor was eco-friendly, as the ceremony incorporated wildflowers that are native to the Big Sur region of California rather than having a more particular variety flown in.

People magazine adds that Portman even included the wildflowers in her wedding day look, wearing a crown of white buds in her hair to go along with her tea-length, white Rodarte dress. When the festivities wrapped up around 2 a.m., guests were given packets of wildflower seeds as parting gifts.
