Hilary Swank & Chad Lowe Wedding

Who: Oscar-winning actress Hilary Swank ("Million Dollar Baby," "Boys Don't Cry") and actor Chad Lowe ("Life Goes On," "ER")

When: September 28, 1997

Where: The couple said "I do" at a Methodist house of worship in the Los Angeles area.

The proposal: American chestnut trees and red maples were silent witnesses as Chad Lowe asked for Hilary Swank's hand in marriage during a day's outing at Walden Pond, a serene sanctuary in Concord, Massachusetts which served as writer Henry David Thoreau's muse for the book "Walden."

The Ceremony: A five-year courtship, which began with a chance encounter at a Hollywood Athletic Club party, led the pair to a Methodist church for a nondenominational ceremony in which the pair professed their devotion to one another with self-penned vows.

The Dress: Although movie buffs are accustomed to seeing the Academy Award-winning actress in hard-hitting cinematic fare, on her wedding day Hilary chose an ultrafeminine Alvina Valenta gown with an elaborately embroidered basque waistline which flowed into a full, French silk skirt with a tulle overlay. The romantic, off the shoulder neckline showcased a single strand of pearls, and an elbow-length veil completed the look.

The groom looked dapper in a classic black suit paired with a black bow tie and offset with a pale rose boutonniere.

The Reception: One hundred and ten guests gathered at Santa Monica's Miramar Sheraton, where revelers danced to tunes spun by a DJ and sampled slices of a three-tier wedding cake composed of chocolate, raspberries and Grand Marnier and lavishly decorated with a virtual garden of flowers.
