Seth Rogen Married!

SethRogen-580

Actor Seth Rogen tied the knot with his girlfriend, Lauren Miller, this weekend in California. The couple of seven years exchanged "I dos" at the Kunde Estate in Sonoma, California, reports the Daily Mail.


The Knocked Up actor who currently co-stars in the dramedy 50/50 with Joseph Gordon Levitt, held a ceremony officiated by a female rabbi on a hill stop surrounded by vineyards. About 200 guests attended the wedding including fellow funnymen, Jonah Hill, Adam Sandler, Paul Rudd and Craig Robinson (from "The Office").


And as one might expect, an inside reported that the wedding was more laughs than anything else. "Every other line was a joke and the crowd couldn't contain their laughter. It was non-stop fun!," says one guest. The couple left the ceremony in a vintage white convertible and drove to the reception, which was held elsewhere at the same winery.


No word yet on Lauren's dress designer, but we can see that she wore a very long veil and what appears to be a strapless, sweetheart neckline gown with a jewel encrusted belt.

Gene Simmons of KISS Engaged

Gene-simmons-580

He's boasted about bedding some 4,600 women during his lifetime but it looks like KISS frontman Gene Simmons is finally ready to settle down. The 61-year-old rocker will reportedly finally propose to his girlfriend of 25 years and mother of his two children, Shannon Tweed, reports the Daily Mail.


The former Playboy model receives the surprise proposal while the two are on vacation in Belize. "I come with so much baggage, but you're the only friend I've got. You're the only one I love... and you're the only one I will ever love," Simmons tells Tweed on the finale episode of his reality TV show, "Family Jewels."


"I've never said those words to anybody," the rocker goes on. "And I don't ever want to... funny, I used to watch movies where they say I can't live withuot you, but for me it's true."


Simmons then gets down on one knee and says, "Please marry me," to the former Miss December model. The preview doesn't show Tweed accepting (or turning down) his proposal, so fans will have to tune in tonight. Before proposing, Simmons consults their two children, Nick, 22, and Sophie, 19. Nick tells his father, "I'm proud of you," while Sophie -- when asked about the ring -- replies, "Of course mom will love it, it's huge!"

Edward Norton Celebrates Engagement

Norton-robertson-580

Though the actor hasn't confirmed the news himself, looks like Edward Norton is really enjoying his newly engaged status. The "Fight Club" actor and rumored fiance Shauna Robertson were spotted looking relaxed and tanned as they enjoyed a vacation in Sardinia last week, reports the Daily Mail.


Robertson, a Canadian film producer, looked chic in a dark bathing suit while she lounged on a boat with him and wandered the beach. The happy couple is staying tight-lipped on their engagement, but Norton's ex-fiance, Courtney Love was all too happy to break the news. "Wow, it's about time," said the Hole frontwoman. "He's 41, they've been together for six years."


No word yet on the wedding plans.

Hugh Hefner's Wedding Will Be Televised

Crystal-harris-hugh-hefnerWondering whether Hugh Hefner will rock his infamous red robe when he weds fiance Crystal Harris next weekend? You'll find out if you watch the wedding on TV! But unlike the royal wedding, the coverage won't be live. Marrying Hef, a 2-hour documentary on the nuptials, is set to air on July 13 at 8 p.m. on Lifetime, reports USAToday.com.

Viewers will also score a peek at the wedding preparations. Cameras caught Harris choosing flowers, entertainment and a wedding dress, according to USAToday.com. Footage of the former playmate's bridal shower and bachelorette party will also be included.

Hef and Harris haven't exactly been shy about sharing the details of their June 18 nuptials so far. The two tweeted a photo of their bejeweled wedding invites last month and recently shared that Harris will walk down the aisle in a pink wedding gown. Around 300 guests will witness the "garden party"-themed ceremony, according to PopEater.com.

Jamie Hince Celebrates Single Life before Marrying Kate Moss

Jamie-hince-bachelor-party

We've already heard about Kate Moss and Jamie Hince's over-the-top wedding plans, so we're not surprised to learn that the groom got wet and wild at his bachelor party. The Kills guitarist celebrated his final few weeks of single life last weekend, reports DailyMail.co.uk.

Hince looked classy in a dark navy suit as he arrived at Les Trois Garcons in East London for dinner, but the rocker sported a massive wet spot on the back of his jacket when he emerged from the eatery with close friends and band mates, according to Metro.co.uk.

Hince later headed to a live music venue before retiring to the W London Hotel to party at both the hotel's bar and his swanky suite, reports Metro.co.uk.

Moss is expected to fly with friends to Paris for her bachelorette party before tying the knot with her fiance in July, according to Metro.co.uk

Michael Buble's Third Wedding

Buble-final
To the same woman, that is! Michael Buble and his wife, Luisana Lopilato, just threw a third wedding celebration last weekend at the Pan Pacific Hotel in Vancouver, reports MyDaily.co.uk.

The two were officially married last March in a civil ceremony, followed by a formal 300-guest party in Buenos Aires. This third wedding lasted until 7 a.m. and the cupcakes and candy bar were apparently flowing freely. Decadent? Probably. But we just want to know if we're invited to the fourth bash.

Paul McCartney's (Very) Low-Key Wedding

PaulNancyThe engagement ring that Paul McCartney gave his wife-to-be Nancy Shevell was big -- $650,000 and 5 carats big to be exact -- but the wedding itself will be as modest as it gets. Shevell recently announced that the ceremony will take place not in an Irish castle like McCartney's wedding to Heather Mills, but simply at a town hall, reports NDTV.com.

 

"And don't ask what I'll wear, because how dressy do you get to stand before a Justice of the Peace in his chambers, which is exactly what we're going to do," Shevell said. Big on bling, small on planning fuss? We're on board!

Hugh Hefner Sets the Date, Passes on Prenup

HefnerHarris_250

In case you were still in denial about Hugh Hefner and Crystal Harris' engagement , it's official now: The May-December pair has set June 18 as the date of their Playboy Mansion wedding, People.com reports.


Wedding plans are well underway. But here's a shocker: What was expected to be an ironclad prenuptial agreement doesn't exist. OKmagazine.com reports that Hef, who popped the question last Christmas, "actually cares" about his third-wife-to-be, and so feels no need to protect his enormous fortune (estimated at $43 million) with a contract.


Hefner's ex-girlfriend Holly Madison was around to state the obvious: "I think it's possible Crystal could break Hef's heart. They could end up divorcing, and she could take half his money."


In any case, Hefner just celebrated his 85th birthday last weekend, Las Vegas Weekly reports. Will Harris have time to make it down the aisle, let alone file for divorce? Ah, romance.

Michael Buble Married!

BubleWedding_580

Michael Buble is officially a married man. The singer tied the knot with his girlfriend, Luisana Loreley Lopilato de la Torre in Buenos Aires in a series of elegant ceremonies, reports People.com.


And, keeping in line with a stateside trend, Lopilato also donned a trio of dresses for the two different weekend wedding ceremonies. For the civil ceremony in Bueonos Aires, the 23-year-old TV star wore a violet dress with a crystal encrusted bodice (far left photo). On Saturday, Lopilato donned a more traditional gown designed by Argentinean designer Sylvie Burstin (middle photo). This religious ceremony, held at a private mansion called Villa Maria Paz, was attended by some 300 guests, and Lopilato's father, Eduardo, walked her down the aisle. That gown reportedly featured a satin bodice with a plunging neckline and a feminine, tiered skirt made of layers of tulle, with ribbons and silk thread embroidery. She also wore a pair of Christian Louboutin heels.


Then, during the reception -- which featured a special performance by Buble of "Haven't Met You Yet" which he dedicated to his new wife -- Lopilato slipped into a silk chiffon v-neck gown by Marchesa (sketch, far right). The dress reportedly featured a delicate embroidered waist and details at the shoulders.


Insiders said the wedding was a big hit. "The wedding was unbelievably joyous," said one insider. Guests danced until six in the morning, and "the bride and groom and families and friends had a phenomenal time," says the source.


But the party isn't over yet. Buble and Lopilato will reportedly hold yet another reception in Vancouver, Canada, close to the groom's native Burnaby, in May.

Hugh Hefner Picks a Date,
Kelsey Grammer Ready to Wed

Kelsey_Hef_580

Playboy magnate Hugh Hefner has picked a date to wed his girlfriend, Crystal Harris. A Playboy rep confirmed that the two will tie the knot on June 18 at the Playboy Mansion.


Crystal is well underway when it comes to wedding planning, and recently told The New Yorker that the wedding will be "...kind of just a romantic, roaming-around-the-mansion type thing."


Crystal has already started her search for the dress, and is apparently partial to a strapless, mermaid style pink dress with silk-organza rosettes, from Romana Keveza. Hugh proposed over Christmas announcing his engagement first, via Twitter.


And in other bachelor news, former star of Frasier, Kelsey Grammer, is ready to walk down the aisle this Friday, reports the UK's Daily Mail. As reported earlier, Kelsey, 56, will marry his 29-year-old fiance Kayte Walsh in the Grand Ballroom of NYC's historic Plaza Hotel.


The wedding will reportedly be filled with treats like filet mignon au poivre, slow-roasted turkey breast with chorizo stuffing, braised short ribs, and -- for vegetarians like Kayte -- goat cheese truffles and mushroom risotto. Dinner alone is estimated at $215 a head -- and that's without dessert. The wedding cake is being designed by none other than Sylvia Weinstock, and the newlyweds will also serve bittersweet chocolate tarts.


The wedding dinner is expected to be served at around 11 p.m., with the party continuing into the early morning. This will be Kelsey's fourth wedding.
