Desperate Housewives **Marcia Cross**, 44, married her fiance of 10 months, stockbroker Tom Mahoney, 48, on Saturday June 24 before guests like **Eva Longoria**, **Felicity Huffman** and William H. Macy. The wedding took place at the Church of Our Savior Episcopal Parish in San Gabriel, California.
 
Cross's sister, Ellen Cross, played guitar in the ceremony and sang "Only Love Remains," while Marcia walked down the aisle on the arm of her father Mark Cross. The bride wore a dress by Reem Acra and carried a bouquet of white peonies and white roses. Marcia's other sister, Susan Hett, served as the maid of honor, nephew Jared Hett was the ring bearer, and Mahoney's pal Ed McClaren acted as best man. Reverend Eva Cavaleri officiated the ceremony, which included 220 guests.
 
The flowers included pink tuplips, white tulips, burgandy roses, and pink roses, and were arranged by Amy Child Marella at The Hidden Garden, who also fluffed the flowers at Carmen Electra and Dave Navarro's nuptials. Julie Pryor of Pryor Events was the wedding planner for the event.
 
The reception was held in two ballrooms at The Ritz Carlton in Pasadena, California. Cocktails were offered in an all-white ballroom converted into a lounge with white curtains covering the walls and white couches and furniture for cocktails before the seated dinner. Dinner was served in a second ballroom decorated in bright colors.
 
On Friday, the couple hosted their rehearsal dinner on an outdoor patio at Bistro 45 in Pasadena, California. The following day Cross spent the hours before the ceremony frolicking in the hotel pool with her seven flower girls. The happy couple, who met in a flower shop in Winter 2005, will spend their wedding night in The Ritz Carlton's two-story Tournament of Roses Suite. It is the first marriage for both.
 
Cross plays the uptight Bree Van De Kamp on the hit show Desperate Housewives. She has also had roles on the successful series Melrose Place and Knot's Landing.
