BONUS REALITY COUPLE!
Trista Rehn & Ryan Sutter
(Trista & Ryan's Wedding)
The Wedding Date: Televised on December 10, 2003 (the wedding actually took place on December 6, 2003)
Why We'd Say Adieu to These I Do's: The Badgley Mischka gown, Kenneth Cole tuxes, Mindy Weiss wedding planning, Stuart Weitzman shoes, Lenox china, Louis Licari salon hair, Laura Mercier makeup, Tacori rings … everything about the Rehn-Sutter, ahem, production, was a top-notch, made-for-TV affair. Which was sorta the problem. We can respect the cash situation — weddings are expensive and getting all those goods gratis was not a bad deal at all. But for a couple whose relationship had begun, and largely played out, in a very public setting, it might have been more special, and personal, if 26 million people hadn't been invited to tune in to watch them say "I do."
