Marcia Cross Wedding Glitch  6/30/06

Desperate Housewives star Marcia Cross had a dream wedding last Saturday (24JUN06) with only one major hitch - the groom's cell phone rang in the middle of the vows.

Cross married money manager Tom Mahoney at a black-tie wedding attended by 200 guests in San Gabriel, California.

The 44-year-old bride took the interruption in her stride, according to Housewives co-star Brenda Strong, "She couldn't contain her giggles."

Mahoney opted not to take the unfortunately timed call and wisely turned his mobile phone off.

The rest of the couple's vows were traditional, but Cross improvised on the script ever so slightly.

She explains, "After I said 'I will' to everything, I whispered under my breath, 'As long as I don't have to cook!'"

The bride was remarkably stress-free on her big day, saying, "My hair and makeup people were teasing me because I hadn't told them what I wanted. I figured it would all work out."

Cross decided to get changed in a room at the church to avoid the paparazzi, but discovered that the room had no mirror.

She adds, "I had no idea what I looked like. I got into my dress, put on my veil and was sent out the door."

The low-key couple were spotted shopping for groceries the very next day (25JUN06).

Cross adds, "I'm exhausted, but the most happy exhausted. (The wedding) was magical, filled with love and beyond my wildest imagination!"
