With the help of In Style magazine, Celebrity Weddings is prepared
to give viewers a peek at some of the most talked about weddings of the
year. And the best part is that no one has to bring gifts.
Here is a glimpse of what one might see.
Brian Latrell to Leighanne Wallace
This Backstreet Boy said "I do" to actress Wallace on Sept. 2. They
met at the filming of BSB's video for - ironically - "As Long as You Love
Me." The courtship lasted three years. Latrell and Wallace wanted the
classic fairytale wedding and they had it. The wedding was held
at Atlanta's Four Season's Hotel, where 300 of their closest friends and
family celebrated. Latrell surprised his bride and guests by singing a
song he wrote for Wallace called "You Are," while she shed tears of happiness.
Tionne "T-Boz" Watkins and D'Mon "Mack 10" Rolison
This TLC singer swapped vows with rapper Mack 10 on Aug. 19 on a
bluff overlooking the Pacific Ocean in Palos Verdez, Calif. As if that
wasn't romantic enough, the reception took place, on the 13th fairway
of a country club golf course, under a tent covered in sheer ivory and
crystal chandeliers. Mack 10 proposed to T-Boz on New Year's Eve 1999
with a 10-carat diamond, which Mack 10 called a "dime piece" for his "dime
piece," meaning T-Boz was his perfect 10. Guests to the affair included
TLC's Chilli and rapper Ice Cube.
Joan Lunden and Jeff Konigsberg
The former Good Morning America co-host wed camp-owner Jeff
Konigsberg on April 18 after an engagement that lasted only 10 days. They
thought the sooner the wedding, the less paparazzi. The nuptials took
place at the Old Oaks Country Club in Purchase, N.Y. Two hundred guests
attended the last-minute affair, including singer Michael Bolton. Lunden's
three brunette daughters celebrated their new family by singing: "Here's
the story, of a lovely lady, who was bringing up three very lovely girls.
None of them had hair of gold, like their mother's..." Sound familiar?
If these examples didn't satiate wedding lovers' appetites, check

Hills, 90210 star Jennie Garth's wedding makes an appearance.
