All week long, we're featuring our best of Texas shows that we did while I was on trial
in Amarillo, but I had no beef with this show.
It was beautiful and romantic and full of great ideas that even I think a lot of people
can use, even if you're not like a big Hollywood celebrity or something.
Everybody loves a good wedding.
It's especially fun to watch celebrities, though, say I do, so kick up your feet and
enjoy some of these fairytale weddings that are definitely worthy of Hollywood, and you'll
get some good ideas for yourself.
Get ready, we're going inside Celebrity Weddings.
Kelsey Grammer had a grand affair.
Angela Bassett wore jewels in her hair.
This is an idea, really good one.
Diana Ross's daughter tied the knot in style, and Jack Nicholson walked his daughter down
that aisle.
Look at Jack in that picture, will y'all?
Look, Schultz's cake was a beautiful thing.
It's a work of art, isn't it?
Little gay Jada's gorgeous ring to four-carat pear-shaped diamonds, I'll just show you that
part.
Ellen's Jolie Fisher threw a New Year's Eve ball, but Jessica Fox needs to dress Bale
and all.
Does this have to come off, Jessica?
Yes it does, darling, but the cleavage is happening just a little bit too serious under this Celebrity
Wedding.
Anybody want this?
Coming up.
Where can you stop, and you won't get started, make some noise, when you know, the boy gave
you a smile.
Can you stop that?
On your 17-year-old shades.
Whoa.
This beautiful bouquet of pink and white roses is a replica of the one Jada Pinkett carried
on New Year's Eve when she tied the knot with her favorite man in black, Will Smith.
Later you're going to see the dazzling diamond ring that Will placed on Jada's finger.
But right now, anybody want this?
Colin Cowey, Colin Cowey's celebrity wedding planner from InStyle Magazine and the author
of this beautiful book called Colin Cowey Weddings is here to take us inside the private
ceremonies of stars saying I do.
Come on up here, Colin.
Hey, Colin.
Welcome to Amarillo.
Hi, Judy.
Nice to see you.
Good to see you in Texas.
Yes, I'm happy to see you.
Well now.
Oh, you love in Texas.
I love this book.
It's so beautiful, Colin.
Thank you.
Colin Cowey Weddings.
Actually, this cover with this lily of the valley, this is one of my favorite bouquets.
My favorite flower in the whole world.
It is?
My mother had that in her bouquet when she got married.
Really?
Yeah, it's my favorite.
And the fragrance is so beautiful.
Oh, the fragrance.
I love the fragrance.
I like putting just a little small little bouquet right next to my bed.
Okay.
If you could wear any dress in the world, any dress in the world.
We're not talking to you, Mr. Bouquet.
What would you choose?
Well, today we're helping actress Vivica Fox make one of the most important decisions
for her wedding day.
She starred in the movie Set It Off, Independence Day, and so food.
But Vivica's favorite role right now is the real life one, a bride-to-be.
Her fiance is R&B singer 6'9", he's got his name because he's so tall.
Vivica's going to let us help choose her wedding gown.
And throughout the show, this is how we're going to do it.
We're going to see her in a variety of designer dresses, and we're going to give our opinion
on the one she should wear.
We're going to give our opinion.
It doesn't mean that she's going to wear it.
Here she is from California at my favorite hotel, Hotel Bel Air.
Okay, so the first gown that Vivica has on is by Carolina Herrera.
It is a two-piece champagne-colored gown with a secret Bolero jacket.
It is beautiful.
It has a halter neckline, and the skirt is made of silk and satin, retails for approximately
$3,200, $3,200, turn around Vivica so we can see it.
Does the top come up?
I always do that with Colin, and he's a friend, so I always do that.
Does the top come off, Vivica?
Yes, it does, darling, but the cleavage is happening just a little bit too serious under
there, so we go camouflage today.
So Vivica, you were on the show, I want to see your ring.
First of all, when you were on the show, had 6'9 proposed?
No, we hadn't, we actually just got engaged this past Christmas, December 19th.
Can we zoom into the ring?
Sure you can.
Zim, zim, zim, oh my, oh pretty, beautiful, oh that's beautiful, oh I like that, I like
that a lot.
So how did he propose?
It was our one-year anniversary when we had met, and he took me out to dinner, and I had
a feeling something was going to happen, because he was acting all, you know, crazy the whole
week before.
He was like, I got something to tell you, and I was like, what?
So we went to dinner, I kind of had a feeling it was going to happen, so when the waiter
brought like the champagne and the food, I was like, looking in the glasses, looking
in the food, I was like, I know it's here somewhere, well it didn't happen there, he
stretched it out over the whole evening, because he says I figure out things too fast, and
we went home, and there was a whole house full of flowers, and there was a little bag
that said, for you, and he asked me to become his wife.
How sweet, we love it, 69, okay, all the jury bill is worrying other than a wedding
ring, engagement ring was provided by Van Cleve and our pals, and all the bouquets were
done by Stanley Gaddy.
Okay so we're going to check in, we see this one right here, this is, we'll call this
gown number one, okay, so how do you feel, well, how do you feel about this gown?
I love it, I think it's very beautiful, it reminds me like of a princess fairy tale thing,
you know, going on here with the tiara and the sequins and everything, I like it, you
do like it, I do like it, okay, I mean I like it, it's simple, the line is beautiful, it's
simple, it's like Vivica has a lot, she's misgoing on herself, so I want to see some
more, I want to see some more, okay, we'll check in back with Vivica a little later from
the Bel Air Hotel, see the next wedding gown, thanks Vivica, I like it, I like it, I'm not
in love with it, you know I like it, it had a simple line to it, and I think by the time
the bride's got the veil and the hair and the makeup and the bouquet, she tends to look
very over produced, it was very nice, there were just two elements, it was the beading
and a very simple silhouette, okay, it's just the first one, yeah, there's more to come,
okay, the celebrity weddings on today's show are straight out of a fairytale and you're
invited, first of all, Frasier star Kelsey Grammer wanted his special day to be memorable,
so who'd he hire, he hired Mr. Wedden, Colin Cowie to help he and his bride Camille design
the wedding of their dreams, Kelsey Grammer and his lovely bride Camille Donatacchi said
I do, in a sumptuous outdoor wedding last summer, a friend's ranch provided their lush
setting, the couple called on Colin Cowie to help them achieve an intimate ceremony
filled with music and flowers, they married under an elaborate tent of 5,000 square feet
of wooden trellises and 10,000 yards of chiffon, 20 violinists strum, a chorus sang and a swing
band played on and on, Camille's favorite color lavender could be seen everywhere, lavender
roses adorned the backs of chairs, trellises and guest tables, both Kelsey and Camille
wanted a traditional wedding, she wore a classic dress by Vera Wang and carried a bouquet of
Lillia the Valley, they decided to say traditional vows instead of writing their own, for a brief
moment, sentimental Kelsey had to choke back the tears,
dinner was served under the candle lit tent, where large baskets of roses surrounded by
fresh fruit decorated the tables, guests dined on chilled tomato and lemongrass served in
eggshells, rack of lamb, creme brulee, but no one could miss the five tiered wedding
cake made of white chocolate, raspberries and prince buttercream, woo, it was trimmed
in the lavender color seen throughout the wedding, the newlyweds and their guests included
in Frasier co-star David Hyde Pierce, danced well into the night.
So to keep the paparazzi away from their special day they used huge white tethered balloons
yes right to block the view, oh I had a whole arsenal, the balloons were one part of it,
then I had guys with mirrors in the ground shining the lights into the eyes of the helicopters
and then we put trellises over all the areas where you would have seen the bride and groom
where the ceremony took place allowing us to have the idea of being in a garden but
also to have privacy, privacy means privacy over here, okay and then you did a special
table for him is that correct, yes and this is the exact copy of the table that we did
for them, an abundance of flowers and colors obviously rose was what we used the most of,
lots of fruit made it very rich, don't you love this arrangement, don't you just, Stanley
did this, go here, just gorgeous and of course the tablecloth was a copy of the Fortuny fabric
yeah which we turned and made into this, this is well let's just begin with the chairs,
I love this idea so the purpose of this show I mean no not not a lot of people can afford
a celebrity wedding but the purpose of the show is to give you ideas that you can incorporate
into your parties or your wedding and isn't, I loved, I hadn't seen this, this is a new
one of them, this is new, is it in the book, of course it's in the book, there's a whole
chapter of these in the book and you don't have to use roses, you could use fruits in
here or you could use just a few roses and food or you could use fabric tied in the bow
at the bottom chiffon and tie that in the back of each chair or you could just use the
roses for the bride and the groom making it very special and I love the idea of combining
the flowers and also this extended bouquet but then also all the fruit around the table
I think if one is looking to do things on a budget food provides a wonderful fuller
and you can get to use less flowers, fruit is cheaper than flowers, y'all know that,
that's why there's a bowl of lemons sitting on my kitchen table and the lemons were good
in the bowl and they last and they're fragrant and they're fragrant and last a whole lot
longer than flowers do, next you'll see the cake that Brooke Shields and Andre Agassi
had created just for them and find out what sweet touch Angela Bassett added to her intimate
affair back in a moment, this is gorgeous really.
People look at you kind of funny when you're driving a giant hot dog, finding talent, that's

Love had everything to do with it when Angela Bassett married actor Courtney B. Vans in
a glamorous ceremony at singer Lou Rawls' estate, Angela's dress designed by Escada
was a sleeveless beanieck white silk with a lace train woven in France, she added a delicate
1920s platinum and diamond headband and a Victorian diamond choker, her bouquet of Lily
of the Valley and Stefanotas was beautiful, they completed the perfect picture, Angela
and Courtney had a unique idea when it came to serving dessert to their guests, this is
an idea, really good one, I'm telling you, Colin has this one in his book too, they had
a parade of waiters, listen to this, who presented each table with a mini version of their wedding
cake, isn't that a great idea, I love that idea, Colin came up with a similar idea for
a wedding he planned, instead of doing the traditional tiered wedding cake, he asked
cake designer extraordinaire Sylvia Weinstock to make these, as you see on the table here,
miniature wedding cakes for each guest, same idea, I love this idea, and what we did was
I had them designed to match because I used a different place setting of China, the woman
he collected from China through the year, and the cakes were designed to match the patterns
of the China, get out of town, fabulous, I just come to town, oh that's a beautiful idea,
I'm loving that, I'm loving that, and it was such a surprise because all the waiters
walk in at the same time and put them down at the table, all the waiters just walk in
and then give each person their, great conversation piece, I know, I'm just so excited I want
to eat them right now, well, let's go to a break, we could, suddenly Susan star Brooke
Shields wed her ace of hearts, Andre we know that, and shortly after her wedding she talked
about her special day, were you nervous, no, you were not nervous, I was so strangely calm
unless I was in absolute utter denial, uh huh, but I remember everybody around me just
sort of being, there was a big buzz and everybody, and you know my veil, I wanted my veil to
be perfect, I wanted, those are the kind of things, and I got a chance to peek through
the doors, and I saw everybody's faces in the pews just sort of turned around and looking
in and that calmed you, it calmed me, I realized that they could see me, so I quickly came
back and I thought well, get the veil over you, and then I just remembered being so excited
that the closest people in my life were all in the same area, she was sweetheart back
then, inside and out, Brooke Shields wanted a sophisticated cake to match the style of
her wedding, so cake designer Wendy Kroemer got that job, and many of her amazing cakes
have been featured in Martha Stewart's magazine, and here, oh my goodness, look at this cake,
Lily of the Valley, Lily of the Valley is the flower of the day, that is gorgeous, Wendy,
come on up here and tell us about this cake.
She saw a cake on the cover of Martha Stewart's wedding, and I had done the cake, which was
also inspired by the Majolica Pottery, and she asked if we could change the flowers to
Lily of the Valley, because that's one of her favorite flowers, so that's what we did,
and it lended itself perfectly to the design.
Okay, so that's how you got the job.
Exactly.
That is terrific, and what a beautiful job it is.
Well thank you very much.
Yeah, thank you so much, very much, you're doing the cake for Maya's birthday tonight,
is that right?
Yeah, so much, yeah.
Thank you very much.
Thank you.
Famous, our next famous bride, Ellen Star, Jolie Fisher had three different hairstyles
during her, don't want to sit on my lily, during her, three different hairstyles during
her elaborate wedding day, hard to do and get your hair to hold up.
Jolie Fisher's trip to the altar was a far cry from her walk down the aisle on Ellen.
On New Year's Eve, Jolie married the man of her dreams, Christopher Duddy, under a shower
of roses.
The couple met on a movie set where Jolie's co-star Ellen was filming.
Jolie got a glimpse of this handsome cinematographer, and the next thing you know, they were engaged.
An ordinary church wedding simply would not do.
Jolie and Christopher decided to marry on the sound stage where their love began.
To be married in the place where you met is kind of wonderful.
Jolie and Chris spent eight months turning two sound stages into a giant cathedral and
a Mardi Gras ballroom for the reception.
But of course, the most important thing was finding the right dress.
I walked in the staff in L.A. and I saw this dress and I was just like, that's the one.
And I think people say that, it's like, like your husband, you go, oh, he's the one, the
same thing with the dress.
Jolie's mom, Connie Stevens, wore a beaded lace and silk gown by designer Nolan Miller.
Jolie was accompanied by 12 bridesmaids dressed in burgundy silk, velvet, and satin.
I picked the color and then each girl went and selected the neckline and also the line
of the skirt.
Ladies and gentlemen, I'd like to present to you Mr. Christopher Duddy and Ms. Jolie
Fisher Duddy.
May Christopher bride.
600 guests, 600.
Do you hear me?
Tossed thousands of rose petals onto the newlywed as they marched up the aisle.
Afterwards, they partied until 1998.
And at that moment, just everything came down from the ceiling and out of the walls and
it's just, it's just wild.
It was a wild moment.
I loved it.
I just think it was magical.
That's what you want.
This is a festive idea.
Jolie and Christopher toasted their guests with an extravagant champagne pyramid.
That's a good idea.
Except if one of the glasses falls out, then you're in trouble.
That's a great idea.
This is an old idea from many, many years ago and I think it's wonderful to see it reinvented.
Diana Ross's daughter tied the knot in style and Jack Nicholson walked his little girl
down the aisle, coming up next, children of the stars, get married.
Itchy insect bites and ugly rashes can ruin a summer day, but not with cord aid.
Its dual action quickly stops the itch and helps heal on contact.
And cord aid works great for my whole family.
Cord aid maximum strength stops the itch, helps heal the rash.
No time to dry your nails?
Quick, get Maybelline Express Finish Nail Color.
It goes from wet to set in one minute flat in some of the raciest colors of the season.
Express Finish by Maybelline.
Maybe it's Maybelline.
Blueer, no, stronger.
Wait, better milk.
Almost there.
But not as red.
Yeah, yeah, I mean minute.
Yeah, minute.
No, wait.
Wait for school nine weeks straight, Harold finally decided which delicious Eggo waffle
he wanted.
Blueberry.
Unfortunately, he wasn't alone and the next nine weeks began to look bad.
Eggo waffles, so many flavors, so little time.
No, wait.
Children have a variety of tools designed to convince you to give them what they want.
There's begging, there's the tantrum, there's guilt, but if what they want is Jell-O no-bake
peanut butter cup with creamy peanut butter filling and a chocolate shell, be careful
because there is one tool we adults are not ready for.
May I?
Politeness.
Jell-O no-bake peanut butter cup.
Try them frozen.
My fiance and I just closed on our first house.
It's pretty scary, really.
All these big empty rooms.
We needed everything as far as furniture goes.
But we needed to shop on a major budget.
Some friends of ours told us to go to Gruner's summer sale.
It's the lowest prices of the season.
Plus, we don't have to make any monthly payments or pay any interest for one year, which is
key for us.
I went, I bought, and I saved.
Gruner's Home Furnishing.
That simple.
You know, it's a little known fact that you can shake a can of baked beans to hear how
good they taste.
Example.
New van camps, old-fashioned baked beans.
Listen.
Hear that?
Of course not.
No watery slurp.
All you hear is a thick sauce made with rich molasses and real smokehouse bacon.
Reminds me of the beans mom makes.
They're made.
When I lived at home, which I don't anymore.
New van camps, old-fashioned baked beans.
Shake them.
Hear how good they taste.
That was Lisa.
Uh, Lena and now Harry Hamlin married at their home.
He proposed to her with a nine-carat diamond ring.
Oh, hello.
That belonged to his grandmother.
Lisa's pregnant now with her first child.
Congratulations, y'all.
Congratulations.
So Jack Nicholson gave his eldest daughter away.
It was like a scene out of a classic Hollywood movie.
Of course, wedding planner Colin Cowie helped bring the Nicholson's vision to life.
Take a look.
I knew that I wanted to get married at the Bel Air Hotel from the time I was a little
girl.
My dad used to take me there on the weekends to visit friends of his that were living at
the hotel.
Last summer, Jennifer Nicholson married her high school sweetheart, Mark Northley, at
the Bel Air Hotel in a romantic setting that looked like a scene out of Swan Lake.
Jennifer wore a sleeveless Vera Wang bridal gown made of white Dutchess silk with a fitted
bodice and a full skirt.
Her bridesmaids seemed to float in long tooled skirts, also designed by Vera Wang.
Jennifer's father, Jack Nicholson, was every bit the proud papa on that big day.
It was very special to have my father walk me down the aisle and give me away.
We had a little quiet moment before that and he said, Dad, I don't want you to give me
away.
And he said, but I have to.
And I said, well, keep a little part of me for yourself.
And he said, OK, I'll do that.
Jennifer and Colin planned her wedding in three stages.
The wedding ceremony under the Rose Arbor was the first.
I give this ring a place upon my hand as a symbol of our eternal love.
As a symbol of our eternal love.
Her festive garden brunch was the second stage.
Guests included old family friends like Michael Douglas and Warren Baby for the third and
wildest part of the celebration.
Guests attended an evening soiree at the newlyweds home.
It included an elephant and a monkey in red velvet.
We took all of the furniture out of our house and put it in storage.
They transformed their home into an exotic East Indian Casbah.
Waiters in harem pants and turbans served Indian delicacies.
People were practically swinging from the chandeliers.
So I think it was a pretty good party.
I can imagine.
So do you stay for the hope you stay till the night's over?
Absolutely.
And what time was that night over?
Oh, honey, that night didn't end.
The centerpieces that Colin created for Jennifer Nicholson's tables were lemon and lime.
Topiaries.
Now, the great thing about these, they don't cost a lot of money because it's lemon and
limes.
And at the last minute, we started them with Stefanosis and these are also something that
can be done.
Look at Jack in that picture, will y'all?
That's the Jack we know and love.
He is so terrific and as good as a guest.
Dineroth and Motown founder Barry Gordy's daughter Rhonda had a supreme day when she
tied the knot with musician Rodney Kendrick.
Take a look.
For Diana Ross's daughter Rhonda, it was the something borrowed that added to her special
day because mom Diana loaned her a sparkling tiara and matching antique earrings she had
worn at her own wedding.
The groom jazz pianist Rodney Kendrick just beamed as they pledged their endless love.
The bride wore a fitted ivory dress and topped it off with a white and gold satin African
cut cape.
The crowning moment came when Rhonda's mom and dad, Motown founder Barry Gordy, serenaded
the couple.
Coming up, see the romantic ring the Fresh Prince gave to his princess, Miss Jada.
The first Young and the Restless star, Laura Lee Bell, is used to writers giving her a
soap opera love life, but Laura Lee didn't know that something she wrote in a high school
yearbook would be her real life destiny.
Take a look.
We first met in high school.
I had already been going to the Chicago Latin school and then one day Scott arrived.
I knew her as a cute little blonde with long straight hair.
I really wasn't dating anyone in Los Angeles and I was nominated for a self-overdigest
award and I had always thought about Scott and I thought, what have I got to lose?
So I called him up and here's my date.
Scott and I talked about finding our yearbooks back in 1984 and I wrote, one day I hope to
have a wedding ring from you and here's my ring.
The best moment for me on our wedding day was to see Laura Lee come around the corner
with her father.
I knew she was going to be beautiful, but I didn't know she was going to be that beautiful.

I'm looking for pen refills.
Can I use travel sizes at home?
Hi.
What's your opinion on melatonin?
Hallmark cards?
Hi.
Can I drop off my film here?
Can I take too much vitamin C?
Do you boys know where?
Could I, uh...
Have a question?
Ask a neighbor.
Just make sure it's the right neighbor.
Long's Drugs, the one you trusted for 60 years, turned to Long's.
Hello, Larry.
Long time no see.
You know me?
Like a book, Larry.
How about a Hebrew National hot dog?
Take credit cards?
I take credit for everything.
This is some of my best work.
Fresh kosher beef, perfectly seasoned.
Just fine.
Thank you.
Now, take one over to your wife.
My wife?
I wish.
Trust me on this, Larry.
Hebrew National.
Better because we answer to a higher authority.
I have a hot dog and it's for you.
Okay, this is a duplicate of the ring that Will Smith gave Jada Pinkett when he proposed.
He got it from renowned jeweler to the start, Harry Winston.
I'm not showing my whole hand because I haven't had a manicure.
Been a little busy.
It's a four-carat pear-shaped diamond.
I'll just show you that part on my hand.
Four-carat pear-shaped diamond set in platinum, the perfect size for petite Princess Jada.
Isn't Jada a pretty girl, too?
One hundred friends and relatives gathered at the Cloisters, which is a medieval-style
mansion near Jada's hometown of Baltimore on New Year's Eve, to witness them recite
their vows.
And their three-wedding-tiered cake had three flavors.
I'm like, this is another good idea.
No.
Ah!
Idea central.
Carrot, lemon, poppy, and lady, Baltimore.
There was a grand buffet set up, and even the strawberries dressed up for the special
occasion.
Jada's pregnant with her first child.
Congratulations, Jada and Will.
Okay, Vivica's still at the Bel Air by satellite, only starting out.
She's about to start a new chapter in her personal life.
She's also starting a new TV series on Fox this March.
Here's a little preview of Miss Vivica.
Billy!
No, no, no.
Billy!
I'm fine now.
What fine?
Weezy had needs the man could not meet.
Listen, if you can look at George and Weezy and not be moved, then you don't know what
love is.
Oh, I don't know what love is?
Excuse me, but I just came out of a three-year relationship, okay?
We lived together.
We had a dog.
We bought major appliances.
That was true love.
Then why are you here?
Because he just wasn't you.
The way we work.
Vivica's engaged to R&B singer 6ix9ine and is letting us give our opinion as she tries
on wedding dresses.
Let's see what you got on now.
The next gown is from Vera Wang, elegant and simple fitted bodice goes into a signature
Vera Wang tulle skirt.
The back of the dress is sheer, adorned with rhinestones.
Turn around, Vivica.
Oh my.
Oh!
Oh my.
Available at the Vera Wang Salon at Barneys of New York and Beverly Hills, retails for
$3,890.
What do you think of that one?
I love this one.
Yeah.
I really like it.
You say you love the other one though.
So you love this one.
I love this one.
I really want to go for like a simple line and then have like the jewelry and everything
else, you know, speak a little bit more than the dress so it's not overkill.
Okay.
Let's get into that necklace there.
Is that Van Cleven Arpels, the pearl?
Yes it is.
You still like the tiara?
Yes I do because it's like gold and silver so then we can have a fabulous veil happening
after this.
Okay.
I get to be princess for the day.
Okay.
I'd keep the tiara and lose the pearls.
I think the pearls interfere with the neckline.
The neckline is so pretty and so flattering on you.
Hmm.
And the back is also very pretty with the rhinestones.
Yeah.
And the diamond bracelet.
I know.
We just offer our opinions, Miss Vivica.
Okay.
But the dress looks divine.
But the dress is gorgeous and also, I mean, see, first of all, if you choose this dress,
you're walking down the aisle, then you get a big gasp as you pass by because nobody's
expecting the back.
That's true.
Nobody's expecting the back.
That's true.
Well we want to surprise.
I want to know how you knew 6ix9ine was the one.
Well, you know, when I first met 6ix9ine, he came up to me with such a classic touch.
I just came back from filming Soul Food.
I was just dying to go out and, you know, I wasn't really looking for anybody.
I mean, I was decidedly single.
I mean, really decidedly single.
And he came up to me and he said, are you Vivica Fox?
And I said, yeah.
And he goes, wow, you're better looking in person.
I was like, yeah, right.
And I was like, good luck.
And he handed a compliment.
Yeah.
Uh-huh.
So then I went my dance and when I came off the dance floor, he came up to me and he handed
me 20 roses, one at a time.
Oh my.
Yeah, it was really sweet.
And then we didn't talk to each other for a little while.
And then like the first couple of dates, it was magic.
20 roses, one at a time.
Mm-hmm.
That's an idea.
Thanks, Vivica.
We're going to check back when you look.
So you like this one better than the first one, right?
Yes, ma'am.
OK, OK.
Moving on.
Thank you.
We'll check back later.
We're watching the personal wedding videos of celebrities today.
And as you'll see, Chicago Bull star Scottie Pippen scored big on his special day.
Chicago Bull Scottie Pippen has five world champion rings.
Last summer, he had to make room on his hand for one more, a wedding ring.
The groom wore a custom-made tuxedo with a bod, like that has to be custom-made.
His bride, Larsa Yonan, was princess for a day.
Over 40,000 crystals and rhinestones and beads adorned her silk and satin bodice.
The jewels in her crown matched the one sewn in the 60 yards of tulle in her skirt and
veil.
After the ceremony, instead of rice, Scottie and Larsa released doves.
Extra security helped the newlyweds to enjoy some privacy.
The wedding date was changed twice because of leaks to the press.
Then the couple flew on love's wings to the magnificent Empire Room at Chicago's Palmer
House Hotel.
160 guests danced the night away.
We've seen their moves on the basketball court, but fellow Bulls Luke Longley and Steve Kerr
showed some new ones on the dance floor.
The Pippen's white and pastel flower cake just dazzled the whole room.
Scottie didn't commit a vow when he fed his bride her first bite.
Congratulations, Scottie and Larsa.
Thanks, Scottie and Larsa.
You were telling me about the flower idea somebody else did?
Lisa Kudrow's wedding.
There were many people she wanted to include, but didn't want to have a big wedding party.
So what she did, she picked 20 of her friends in the congregation, and each person had a
different flower, and each flower, when she got to the top of the aisle, they each bought
her a flower, this single flower, and then her mother and father tied a big bow around
it, presented it, and it became her bouquet for the ceremony.
What an idea!
That is a great idea.
Next, find out which celebrity bride wore a 25-pound gown, and see the incredible bouquet
she carried back in a moment.
That is very interesting.
I can't wait until the furniture come.
Me too.
Heather or Molly?
I am so glad the furniture came.
Me too.
Heather or Molly?
It's soft.
It's warm.
It's the best seat in the house.
New carpet.
It just feels better.

right to get back to my wife, well then, that's my mission.

This is pure gold.

That's Wednesday.
When we come back, we're going to look at one more very pricey, very pricey Vivica gown,
plus 90210 star Iain Zaring's fairytale wedding.

Beverly Hills, 90210 star, and I am daring, literally set off fireworks with his Fourth
of July fantasy wedding, take a look, literally.
Beverly Hills, 90210 star, I am daring, traded independence for marriage in a dazzling ceremony
July 4th.
I am proposed to model Nikki Sheeler in a pumpkin patch.
We're amongst the sea of pumpkins, and the sun was just perfect.
It was golden hour, and Nikki looked beautiful in the light.
I am and Nikki held their lavish garden wedding at the Beverly Hills Hotel.
I wanted a lot of colors.
My florist worked with me.
And he really just did an amazing job.
Yeah, he went off the deep end with the flowers.
When we walk into this room, you know, the first thing you really see is the amazing
rose chandelier.
Now, all the sconces are roses also, so it kind of fit with the rose theme that Nikki
was doing with all the flowers.
I am and his four-legged friend Cody just looked dashing in their tuxes, but the day
belonged to me, who wore a dress made by Sandra Johnson in Beverly Hills.
It was made of ivory silk with silk organza embroidered with oxidized gold beads.
I knew that I wanted something sort of from the 1800s, the real princess dress.
I am and Nikki took their vows in front of 350 guests, including co-stars from 90210
and show producer Aaron Spelling and his wife, Candy.
Fireworks went off with the first kiss.
The new Mr. and Mrs. Euring cut into a storybook wedding cake that chronicled their romance.
Then they led their guests to the dance floor.
It's just an awesome feeling.
It's adrenaline.
It's excitement.
It's like the Fourth of July.
I am's bride, Mrs. Schuyler, had a cute gift idea for her bridesmaids.
She gave them these romantic bouquet purses to match their gowns.
These are beautiful.
These bags are by Dixon Dixon and because we love a free gift, especially one as lovely
as this, each one of you has a little mini pocketbook of posies under your chair.
Even the mayor.
Mayor Vamarello's here.
I know you're going to love Mayor Sallis.
Mayor, you have your own little posy pocketbook under your chair.
Thank you so much.
Thank you.
And all of y'all have one under yours too.
Hello, pocket full of posies.
How cute is that?
We love a free gift, Dixon Dixon.
It was 95 degrees when Living Single star Erika Alexander said I do and her 25 pound
Todd Oldham gown, 25 pound gown.
Erika Alexander said goodbye to Living Single in a romantic wedding overlooking the Pacific
Ocean.
Erika turned to designer Todd Oldham for inspiration for her wedding dress.
At first she considered marching down the aisle in this brightly colored gown.
I sort of wanted the color to be more outrageous, but then I decided I don't wear white every
day.
So this was outrageous for me.
The brilliant colors of the original dress were then incorporated into the floral arrangement
by Walter Hubert.
He used dozens of rose petals to turn Erika's bouquet into a large single bloom.
Erika looked beautiful in her white gown, but all eyes were on her feet as she walked
down the aisle in gold sneakers, a gift from Todd Oldham.
That's the way to party.
This is a replica, this is a replica of Erika's unusual bouquet recreated by Flores Stanley
Gaddy.
Everybody in San Francisco knows Stanley, now the whole world does.
It was designed to fit the rose themed nuptials.
Roses were taken apart petal by petal, right?
Petal by petal, and then there was the hand glued all the way around in concentric circles.
If you can, Joes, we're going to break.
Get a shot of all of these roses on the set here that Stanley, Stanley Gaddy did all these
roses.
Stanley tells me there are about 7,000 roses on our stage today, and I'm going to make
sure that when our audience leaves, beginning with the mayor, each of you is going to get
at least a couple of roses when you leave it.
Next we're going to vote on which gown we think actress Vivica Fox should wear.
When she says, I do, and you'll see how a TV doctor found love in the heartland.
I remember that.
That foul ball.
Yeah, you were 12, a hot dog in each hand.
I reached up and snatched that ball, right?
Before you eat, heartburn stops before it starts.
Before I eat.
You get us the hot dogs, and I'll get us another foul ball.
You can be heartburn free with pepsi AC.
Around here, we like a salad with our dinner, and the people who make craft dressings.
People have always seemed to know what we like.
A lot of us grew up on the creamy taste of craft ranch, and who knows, maybe they even
know how good it feels when we see our kids dive into a salad.
I guess they just know what we like.
Around here, the dressing is craft.
This won't take but a minute.
You see the coffee and the coffee filters are located directly beneath the coffee maker,

I brought sparkling wild berry Jell-O.
With wild wiggling berry tapes, I just added club soda.
The family may never get over it.
Sparkling wild berry Jell-O. Smile more.
John and I were trying to think, where would we get married?
And my parents had gotten married in this little chapel
on the Northwestern campus called the Howes Memorial Chapel.
When I was growing up, my mom would say, you know,
that's where we got married.
So it was very meaningful.
I wore a Vera Wang gown.
I always liked halters on myself.
I had no lace or beads or really very much jewelry.
It was just a very plain gown.
It was a beautiful dress.
And then my hair was up and had a couple of roses
that matched the dress.
This is a poem we found by Philip Larkin.
And we just thought it was so beautiful
that we read it during the ceremony.
We gave each other each other's rings and had them engraved.
And each of us had chosen to engrave a phrase from the poem.
It's funny, he put my ring on and I came out of the church
and I took my ring off and I looked
and it said for my sudden angel and for his,
I put for now and for always my love.
It was a wonderful day.
That was Jane Brooke and she's in her third season
on Chicago Hope.
And we thank her for letting us share her special day.
Actress, Ms. Vivica Fox will soon be Mrs. Harvest.
And we've been helping her pick out the perfect dress
for her wedding.
Vivica, let's see what you have on.
Oh, Oprah, hey, there's a groom to be, he helped me carry in my 15 foot train that's following me, hi 6ix9ine.
Hello, how are you doing Ms. Oprah Winfrey?
Good to see you again.
You too darling.
It looks like you've grown a little since the last time.
Well Vivica, let me just say whatever gown,
if you choose any one of these, don't tell him what it is
so he can have that, you know, that surprise in his eyes.
Is there anyone you like in particular 6ix9ine?
This is very interesting that she has on now,
but I like the second one actually.
Really, you did like the second one?
It's more simple.
Audience, you too?
Yeah.
Colin said everybody was gonna love the second one.
What do you think Vivica?
I love the second one too.
Okay, well this gown Vivica's wearing is from Escada.
It's a sleeveless v-neck satin dress with a tulle overlay.
The color has a hint of rose,
hundreds of satin roses adorn the dress.
The hoop skirt has a 12 foot train and it retails for,
oh my goodness, you can either buy this dress
or you can put a down payment on the whole.
Kind of turn around so we can see it
because someone tell you what this is, as you turn.
Okay, oh beautiful.
Do you know how much this dress is Vivica?
I heard girl.
Hey, 6ix9ine, you know how much this dress is?
Here's car note, yes.
Thanks Vista, I'm gonna get all the roses.
What, no, this dress is $15,000.
Woo.
Well, it's pretty Escada.
You can get that dress or put a down payment on the whole.
Okay.
Beautiful, we wish you all the best of luck.
We hope that God holds you in his embrace
but doesn't squeeze you too tightly.
Thank you both, thank you so much.
Thank you.
Vivica.
We look forward to seeing her in her new series on Fox.
Next, Collin shows us another beautiful wedding table
he created back in a moment.
$15,000.
There's just one word for it, that feeling that bulldogs
a man, sooner taking meals over hickory wood fires,
keep company with little critters and fiddle city folk.
Yep, there's just one word for it, cowboy.
Mommy, daddy, it's mine.
I know sweetie.
You sure can barbecue.
How's that jingle your spurs, partner?
Well, that big bold taste
ain't nothing more cowboy than bullseye.
There's a new old friend in the same old place
with a brand new name and a brand new face.
The difference.
Will there be anything else, sir?
Big K-Mart, this is big.
I can't wait to save the day.
Who's one of those like out of body, you know,
off the phone tacos.
I was going out with Joel.
I know.
Taco Bell.
And I, seriously, I was so embarrassed
that she was saying things like
what kind of music do you listen to?
Right, it's one of those things.
That irresistible Taco Bell taste you crave.
Now you can make it right at home
with Taco Bell home originals.
They're really, really bad for my neck.
Taco Bell home originals, the crunch you crave.
People look at you kind of funny
when you're driving a giant hot dog.
Marble only has a second name, it's M-U-I-R.
Finding talent?
That's my job.
I get to travel across this great land of ours
in the company car.
Ask my weiner.
That's kind of fun to say.
But I guess the real highlight is
when I get to chauffer around the big celebrities.
It's so S-T-A-R.
Colin searches back.
Call 1-800-OSCAR-KID to see how your child can audition
for a chance to star in a TV commercial.
These kids want to sing, and we're listening.
We have a lot of people to thank today.
First of all, we thank you, Colin.
It's always a delight to have you on the show.
And Colin's beautiful new book
is called Colin Cowey Weddings.
If you're having one, it's the book to get.
It's filled with wonderful ideas.
A lot of them we've shared, well, some of them, not a lot,
but there are a lot more ideas in the book.
Some really great ideas.
I have to tell you.
Colin also has a new line of lovely Linux China.
And he wanted, look at the,
I love the fact that it's all different designs
because the whole idea of having a table
is not just have matching, matchy-pooh-pooh.
But I think we all spend so much time
thinking how we dress.
And I think that's about it.
