Who: Brian Littrell of the pop group The Backstreet Boys and actress Leighanne Wallace

When: September 2, 2000

Where: Peachtree Christian Church in Atlanta, Georgia

The Ceremony: Like so many brides, Leighanne Wallace dreamed of a fairytale wedding, and to add to the magic of the moment the bride and groom's wedding bands arrived at the altar enclosed in a miniature carriage made of pure gold.

The Dress: In keeping with the story book motif, the bride wore a satin Vera Wang confection complete with a full skirt fit for a modern-day Cinderella. The champagne color of the gown was enhanced by the glow of a multitude of candles at the evening candlelit service. The groom donned a classic charcoal gray tuxedo and a dashing top hat for the event.

The Reception:   Music has been a binding thread in the love story of this couple. The Backstreet Boy met his future spouse at the video shoot for the single "As Long As You Love Me", and at the reception, which was held at the Four Seasons, Brian Littrell performed "You Are", a song written by the groom to express his love for his new bride. Afterwards, the three hundred guests, which included all the members of The Backstreet Boys, danced to the rhythm of a swing band and feasted on a five-tiered wedding cake embellished with touches of 24 karat gold and a chalice wedding topper. Adding a masculine touch to the festivities, the groom's cake was formed in the shape of a humidor.

Special Moments:  During the nuptials, the bride's sister read a poem with a fairy-tale theme.
