Marilyn Manson avoided revealing to the press the details of the wedding ceremony before it has actually taken place, not to spoil the surprise.
He has only said that "it will be a drama within a drama" and will include archery and falconry.
The famous rocker, whose real name is Brian Warner, married his longtime girlfriend, burlesque dancer Dita Von Teese, whose real name is Heather Sweet, in a US$500,000 ceremony at Castle Gurteen in County Tipperary, the home of a friend in Kilsheelan, Ireland.

At the non-religious nuptials on Saturday, Manson, 36, sported a black silk taffeta tuxedo by designer John Galliano, while Dita, 33, walked down the aisle dressed in a purple silk taffeta gown with a corset.

The service attended by 60 guests was led by controversial Austrian underground filmmaker Alejandro Jodrowosky.

"Rather than just have a best man, I have a worst man too - I had two friends, and I had hard time deciding", the rocker said.

Manson has previously claimed that his friends were planning to hire "the great grandchildren of [Adolf Hitler's architect] Albert Speers to light the castle" and there would be "children in makeup, dressed in these wonderful 19th century outfits, serving absinthe frappe", according to femalefirts.co.uk

Madonna, Lisa Marie Presley and Johnny Depp are said to have been among the special guests invited at the small non-religious ceremony, which was followed by a huge banquet.

Manson, now a married man, will continue working on his sixth studio album, the follow-up to 2003's 'The Golden Age of Grotesque'.
He also plans a series of four short films, 'Fantasma Gloria', to be released through his Web site, and two books, including a collection of paintings and his 'Book of Aphorisms, Essays, and Collected Quotes 1990-2005', which is due for publication before the end of the year.
The rocker will also appear opposite an undead Lucy Liu in the supernatural thriller Rise, due next year.
