Who: actress
Holly Robinson ("21 Jump Street," "Hangin' With
Mr. Cooper") and football quarterback Rodney Peete When: June
10, 1995 Where: The
couple said "I do" on the grounds of TV executive
Les Moonves' Brentwood estate in Los Angeles, California. The Proposal:
The football player declared his love on bended knee in
front of a live studio audience gathered to watch the taping
of Holly's ABC comedy "Hangin' With Mr. Cooper." The
romantic gesture would come back to haunt him when his fellow
teammates jokingly reenacted the proposal in the Dallas Cowboys
locker room. The Ceremony:
Event planner to the stars Colin Cowie (who has created
the nuptial ambinace for such celebrities as Jerry Seinfeld,
Lisa Kudrow and Paula Abdul) arranged for perfumed rose petals
to drift down upon the bride and groom from a balcony as the
couple's union was blessed by the Reverend Jesse Jackson during
an outdoor ceremony. Once the couple were pronounced husband
and wife, the reverential tone of the occasion was lightened
with the crash of cymbals and beat of drums as the Southern
California Trojans marching band let loose with the Trojan fight
song. The Dress:
The bride was a breathtaking beauty in a custom-made white silk
satin creation enhanced with pleated tulle and encrusted with
an array of Austrian crystals and pearls. The Reception:
Three hundred guests swayed to the music of James Ingram and
jazz and blues chanteuse Charlie Jene at the reception. The Honeymoon: After the wedding, the couple escaped on a three week honeymoon in France and Monaco.
