Congratulations, George Takei & Brad Altman!!!
After 21 years of being a couple, George Takei and Brad Altman tied the knot at the Japanese American National Museum in Little Tokyo at their public wedding yesterday. They first made their appearance by stepping out together singing "One Singular Sensation" from "A Chorus Line" before entering a circle of yellow roses and lilies and sharing a traditional Japanese tea ceremony before being wed by a Buddhist priest. They exchanged their own vows and used Native American wedding bands proceeded by a bagpipe procession.
Takei said he made the wedding public for the sake of democracy. "We have a relationship that's been stronger and longer-lived than some of our straight friends, and yet we were not equal," he told The Associated Press. "What this does is give us that dignity; (it's) being part of the American system and being whole. We're making the American system whole as well, as America is becoming more equal."

Thank God Howard Stern threw George a bachelor party before tying the knot. Can you think of a better party planner? I think not.
