Ashley & JP - Site and Wedding Updates - Discussion

Happily ever after!

Ashley Hebert went on ABC’s The Bachelorette in 2011 hoping to find a fairy-tale romance...and she did! On Dec. 1, the reality star married JP Rosenbaum at the Langham Hotel, located at the base of the picturesque San Gabriel Mountains in Pasadena, Calif.

“Ashley looked gorgeous walking down the aisle!” a guest at the wedding tells Life & Style. “They seemed so happy and in love.”

The happy couple exchanged heartfelt vows in front of about 300 family members and friends, including fellow stars from The Bachelor and The Bachelorette, namely Sean Lowe, Molly and Jason Mesnick, Ryan and Trista Sutter, Emily Maynard, Jillian Harris, and former couple Ali Fedotowsky and Roberto Martinez. Host Chris Harrison, who first introduced the newlyweds on the air, officiated the ceremony.

The couple’s romantic road to the altar began when JP proposed at sunset on a private island in Fiji in May 2011. After the gorgeous ceremony, the couple will return to their home in Princeton, N.J., and look forward to their next chapter together.

“She'll be the best mom ever,” JP has said of Ashley. “She's very maternal.”

Fans can tune in to see the newlyweds exchange vows on The Bachelorette: Ashley & J.P.’s Wedding, airing Dec. 16 on ABC. Be sure to pick up next week's issue of Life & Style, on stands Wednesday, to go inside the happy couple’s gorgeous nuptials.

The ceremony set up almost looks just like Molly and Jason's!

Rather unimpressive so far. Certainly not Trista Sutter extravagance.

I do not think that is their style. I am sure it was beautiful.

Pretentious is not a word I would use to describe Ashley or JP. To have donation opportunities on their wedding registry in lieu of gifts is telling in itself. I was just making a "comparison". From first glance, Jason and Molly's was nicest of all - IMO.... the branch altar was impressive and the sidewalk lined with glass pillars/flowers/etc. was classy. I will assume that in addition to the wedding, they bartered for some cash in hand to televise their wedding. Far better than a billion flowers like Trista had that could have been better spent on needy. That said - - I'm all about everything Trista got. The franchise made big bucks off of her; should have cost them something.

The second time was definitely the charm for Ashley Hebert.

The Bachelor castoff turned lucky-in-love Bachelorette married J.P. Rosenbaum today in Pasadena, Calif., E! News reports, about a year and a half after the world watched J.P. get down on one knee and pop the question, not even knowing—as the name of the game dictates—if Ashley would accept!

But he was the one Ashley was waiting for, and she gladly accepted the 3.5-carat Neil Lane diamond ring he offered to seal the deal.

Ashley and J.P. can't get enough of each other

Flashforward to the big day: "Today is all about our friends and family," Hebert told People. "It's about standing with J.P., looking around at all the people we love in the same room there to celebrate our love."

Chris Harrison, the voice of reason amid all the Bachelorette drama, officiated the ceremony—and he'll host the couple's wedding special, airing Dec. 16 on ABC. A source tells E!, among the 200-some guests in the crowd were some familiar faces, including Bachelor/Bachelorette vets Ali Fedotowsky, Emily Maynard, and Jason and Molly Mesnick, and Jillian Harris as well as upcoming Bachelor Sean Lowe.

A source tells E!, the couple, who had a Jewish ceremony under a chuppah, kept things gorgeous with roses in shades of white ivory and pink, complete with two wedding cakes including one with a cake topper of the couple with—yes—Ashley giving J.P. a final red rose!

The bride made her way to I do by walking down a wood-planked aisle to a piano rendition of "I Can't Help Falling In Love With You." The romantic ceremony ended with cheer, while guests threw confetti and rose petals.

In successfully swapping vows, Ashley and J.P. didn't make history, but they certainly bucked a trend. Their nuptials are only the fourth to arise from the entire Bed, Bachelor & Beyond franchise, and, after Trista and Ryan Sutter, they're only the second couple to tie the knot after getting engaged on the season finale of The Bachelorette. (No one has achieved such a feat on The Bachelor yet.)

Ashley and J.P. celebrate engagement with big party in NYC

Expectant parents Jason and Molly Mesnick (he was engaged to Melissa Rycroft first, remember?) and Blake Julian and Holly Durst, who met on Bachelor Pad, are the other two couples holding up their end of the argument that finding lasting love on these shows is a possibility.

"We've got nothing but good things ahead," J.P. told E! News after they were finally able to go public. "We're not worried about the odds."

And while it would have been something had they rode off into their future in a chauffeured Bentley, we're gonna bet they went with a less flashy mode of transportation. (Though we'll find out for sure on Dec. 16, when The Bachelorette: Ashley and J.P.'s Wedding tells all.)
