With her first baby due to be born any day now, Jessica Simpson hasn't had much time to plan for her wedding.

But yesterday she finally managed to walk - or waddle with her huge bump - down the aisle with her man by her side.

However, she wasn't about to tie the knot to Eric Johnson but play bridesmaid to one of her closest friends.

Bumping along: Jessica Simpson, whose baby is due any day, waddled down the aisle at a friend's wedding with fiancé Eric Johnson by her side

But she very nearly upstaged the bride as all eyes were on her massive stomach as everyone waits with baited breath for her to finally have her baby.

Jessica, 31, certainly looked radiant in her pink halterneck dress as she joined the ceremony at the Parker Palm Springs Resort in California.

She was joined by her younger sister Ashlee at the sunset wedding of their friend and former assistant Lauren Zelman to Reaper actor Bret Harrison.

Ashlee's three-year-old son Bronx acted as ring bearer and one eyewitness told People: 'He broke down in tears several times, but Ashlee was great and kept making him smile again.'

And the source added that Jessica needed a helping hand down the aisle so there was no danger of her falling over.

They said: 'It was difficult for her to get around, but she was a great sport and kept smiling.

'Everyone at the wedding was doting on Jessica and seemed very understanding. And Lauren seemed very happy that Jessica was able to be a part of her wedding.

Other wedding guests included actors Adam Brody, best known from The O.C, and screen Josh Schwartz, who were groomsmen, plus Simpson's best friend CaCee Cobb and her fiancé, Scrubs star Donald Faison.
