Kim Kardashian and Kanye West were recently married during an extravagant ceremony in Florence, Italy in May.

Now, for the first time since their wedding, the Keeping up with the Kardashians star has opened up about her marriage to rapper West.

While wearing a fitted Balmain dress made out of rope, Kim talked exclusively to MailOnline while at the Cannes Lions Festival in France.

When asked how she was adjusting to being married, Kim said that she feels that they are still in the honeymoon period and feels like this time will last forever. “I feel as though we’ll always be in the honeymoon period. We always say we really like to treat each other like it’s our birthday.”

“I try to treat him like it’s his birthday every single day,” Kardashian added. “I think we’ll always be like that. We always try to make life as fun and enjoyable as possible.”

While the couple, known as Kimye, spend their fair share of time apart, Kim explains that they still make sure that they talk as often as possible. “We do travel, and work really hard. When we’re together – and even when we’re apart, we’re always on the phone 24/7 – just trying to make that time as memorable as possible,” Kim said.

Kim’s wedding is being called the “celebrity wedding of the year.” When asked what the biggest surprise on her wedding day was, Kim explained that she was shocked to have Andrea Bocelli singing as she walked down the aisle.

“Having Andrea Bocelli sing at our wedding as I’m walking down the aisle. I didn’t even know it was really him,” she said. “It was so Kanye to have him there. I should have expected that. I got up the altar and didn’t even see him standing there. And I turned around when my sisters were helping me fix my veil, and I did a double-take – I thought it was a CD of him singing.”
