The bassist, 62, proposed to his Playboy Playmate girlfriend, 54, with a 24-carat diamond on the finale of the couple's reality series in July. The duo have been together for 28 years and have two children together: Nick, 22, and Sophie, 19, who served as Maid of Honor at her parents' wedding and sang Etta James' "At Last" for their first dance.

"It is time for me to grow up. I'm 62. I've been doing a lot of wacky stuff for an awfully long time…and there's nobody I've ever said 'I love you' to," Simmons reasoned to Entertainment Tonight before saying "I do." "I even find it difficult to say 'I love you' to my mother. But I love Shannon with all my heart and all my soul, and always will."

A beautiful couple. I also thought that there would be a Rabbi present since Gene is Jewish.. Anyone knows where Gene's mother was . . They have fantastic children so I guess they did something right. Feisty Mom
At least he was honest none of the "we will get married when everyone can" and now changing it to "oh the kids are pressuring us to do it".......as some other fake celebs have said and are now saying..
I am very disappointed in him. I appreciated that he took a stand against marriage and was committed to it. This, to me , is what being a grown up represents. I never saw Shannon Tweed as a victim. She knew 28 yrs ago the guy never wanted to get married. Don't take home a womanizer, player and expect to change him into Mike Brady.
Well, Wellwhere does one start
