I would want a church wedding with a minister or priest, but that's not Teresa. I wonder if she got him to sign the pre-nup that he was refusing to do. She's foolish is she married him without it considering his history. Agree with all of this. No way he's signing away access to Teresa's money. She wanted a wedding.

A joint venture of Reality TV, by Reality TV, and for Reality TV. Thus, by the power invested in ABC, commercials will be shown, family will speak on camera, the Unchosen will "smile," and the Officiant will do Improv. God bless us, everyone.
