Britney Spears walks down the aisle for the third time... but this time as a maid-of-honour at gay wedding

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

Oops she did it again: Britney Spears walked her assistant and friend Brett Miller down the aisle for his wedding yesterday


The blonde looked beautiful in a floor length blue gown for the wedding ceremony, in which Brett married actor, Frank Lionetti.

Oops she did it again...

Britney Spears has walked down the aisle for the third time. But this time the pop star is not tying the knot.

The 29-year-old singer played bridesmaid for her gay assistant and friend, Brett Miller in Miami, yesterday.


All smiles: Britney looked right at home in the Miami church


Flying into Miami on Thursday, the singer and her boyfriend Jason Trawick enjoyed a romantic weekend.

The pair stayed at the Newport Beachside Hotel, alongside several other friends who were part of the wedding party.

Enjoying an ocean-front room for two, the couple decided to spend some time on their own after arriving late on Thursday night.

'During Thursday night's rehearsal dinner, Britney ditched the reception and ordered room service for herself, Jason and her bodyguard,' a source told People magazine.


The wedding setting: the ceremony took place at the St. Bernard de Clairvaux Episcopal Church and The Ancient Spanish Monastry


The pair chose some comfort food from the hotel's menu.

'They had spaghetti bolognese, turkey burgers, chicken noodle soup, a fruit plate and one turkey sandwich,' said the insider.

Seemingly enjoying the hotel surrounds, they then surprisingly left the following day.

Privacy issues forced the couple to move to another hotel, with Britney complaining that the 'pool wasn't private' enough.

But what an upgrade they got...

They settled on a Frank Sinatra Suite at the Fontainebleau in Miami, where the $35 million penthouse rents for $15,000 a night.


Romantic: The church has a beautiful courtyard where guests can gather


With four bedrooms, a kitchen, whirlpool, piano and a large balcony overlooking the ocean, Britney and Jason had all the amenities at hand.

On Friday, they enjoyed a spot of shopping before attending another wedding party.
Keeping with the Sinatra theme, the pair waltzed to the crooner's tunes.

'At one point, during the early evening Jason took Britney's hand and twirled her to a cool Frank Sinatra sound,' the source says. 'It was cute and romantic.'

The dancing didn't stop there as the couple headed for the Fontainebleau club LIV.


Brit's boy: Jason Trawick was spotted poolside at the Fountainebleau Resort in Miami Beach yesterday


'Britney and Jason were dancing and laughing and having a great time at LIV,' another source told PEOPLE. 'He was very sweet and affectionate with her. And she got very excited when her favorite songs came on.'

Britney's friend's wedding took place at Miami's Spanish Monastery.

Big prize: Anthony Andrews, Geoffrey Rush, Helena Bonham Carter and Colin Firth scoop top honours at the Screen Actors Guild awards

- Natalie Portman adds to her haul as she wins Outstanding Actress for Black Swan

- Glee comes away empty handed despite three nominations


The King's Speech beat out stiff competition to win top film honours at tonight's Screen Actor's Guild award, with Colin Firth scooping the Outstanding Actor honour.

The film won the Outstanding Performance by a Cast in a Motion Picture, beating favourites The Social Network and The Fighter.

Its win leaves the race wide open for this year's Oscar ceremony, with many tipping the Best Picture category to be the closest in years.


Top honour: Colin Firth accepts the Best Actor gong from Nicole Kidman, for his role as stammering King George VI in The King's Speech


In his speech, Firth paid tribute to his 'dream cast,' who included Geoffrey Rush as speech therapist Lionel Logue, Anthony Andrews as Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin and Helena Bonham Carter as the Queen Mother.
'This is really something,' he said.

Success: Natalie Portman adds to her awards haul as she accepts the Best Actress gong from Jeff Bridges


In the Outstanding Actress category, favourite Natalie Portman cemented her position as Oscar favourite when she took the big prize for her role as a tortured ballerina in Black Swan, accepting the award from Jeff Bridges, who lost out to Colin Firth.

She thanked her parents 'who taught me to work my hardest, and to my fiance Benjamin Millepied. I love you very much,' she said.

The actress is expecting her first child by Millepied, who also appeared in Black Swan.
