Flowers: $1,000,000.

Wedding gown by famed fashion designer Nicolas Ghesquiere: $500,000.

Laying claim to one of the greatest trophy wives in history: Priceless.

The National Enquirer reports that Salma Hayek is planning a $3.5 million wedding to her fiancé, François-Henri Pinault, to be held in France next spring. According to a source close to the couple, Pinault, megabucks CEO of French holding company PPR, will foot the bill.

"Salma has dreamed her whole life about a Cinderella wedding," the mole reveals. "François basically gave her the key to the vault and said, 'Go wild.' "

Well, duh, it's Salma Hayek. Dude probably would have severed his left arm if she asked him to.

The couple—who had a daughter, Valentina Paloma, last September—will tie the knot in front of 400 guests.

And probably about a million male protesters with bricks in their hands and tears in their eyes.

Quotables /
“Salma Hayek (in Alexander McQueen) is honored at Women In Film’s 2008 Crystal Lucy Awards held at the Beverly Hilton on Tuesday in Beverly Hills, Calif.

Ms. Hayek was saluted by WIF with the Lucy Award for excellence in television for being the Emmy winning actress/director/producer and Executive Producer of the award winning program, Ugly Betty.

While accepting her award on stage, Salma said, “I’m 41 now. And I have to say, it is the best time in my life.”

Added Salma, “I wanted [Ugly Betty] to be different than anything I was seeing on television. I also wanted Latin people to feel excited and proud that there was something on television that sort of belonged to them, but I wanted the American audience not to feel alienated from it.””

“Does Salma Hayek ever not look sultry? She's awesome and appears to be wearing shoulder jewelry to boot. I love it. And how about Dita von Teese? Even the woman's baby hairs are perfect. I can barely wrangle mine out of my face in the morning, much less get them to agree to put forth a concerted effort to look organized.

Actually, the more I look around, everybody seems to be doing their best to be sultry here on the red carpet for the Cannes Chopard Trophy Awards. Eww, even Star Jones. Why is she lurking in Cannes with those giant eyes of hers? Those eyes that didn't used to be bigger than her stomach. Well, at least her outfits are entertaining.”

“On Friday, the totally gorg' Salma Hayek arrived at Los Angeles International Airport toting her baby daughter Valentina Paloma PInault (born September 1, 2007). As far as baby adorability goes, we're going to say that Valentina is pretty tops. Those eyes are only going to grow into pools of beauty.

Then, on Saturday, we spotted Salma (trailed by two assistants) as she did a spot of shopping at Alexander McQueen (whose logo rubs us the right way, doncha think?).

We wonder how this super sweet duo spent Mother's Day!”
