Bachelor Sean Lowe marries Catherine Giudici on live TV

Bachelor Sean Lowe and Catherine Giudici got married in a lavish ceremony at the Four Seasons resort The Biltmore in Santa Barbara, California, in the franchise’s first-ever live TV wedding.

Sean Lowe and Catherine Giudici got engaged ten months ago on The Bachelor Season 17 finale.

On January 26, Sean Lowe walked down the aisle first, flanked by his mom, Sherry, and his dad, Jay, who officiated the vows. They were followed by the rest of the wedding party, including Catherine Giudici’s many bridesmaids, who wore ethereal blush-colored gowns with gold accents.

Resplendent in a strapless lace Monique Lhuillier gown, Catherine Giudici appeared at the end of the aisle.

Sean Lowe and Catherine Giudici’s love “has been an epic fairy-tale, on display for all the world to see,” his dad began, as the camera panned to other Bachelor alum – including Ryan and Trista Sutter, and Ashley Hebert and J.P. Rosenbaum – in the crowd.
