James Gandolfini and Deborah Lin Exchange Vows in Hawaii
James Gandolfini and Deborah Lin wed in her hometown of Honolulu, Hawaii at the historical Central Union Church on Saturday.
The pair exchanged vows in a 20-minute ceremony, attended by about 120 guests, including Gandolfini's former Sopranos co-star Tony Sirico.
Lin, a former model, 40, walked down the aisle in a gown made of Italian lace as a harpist played the "Hawaiian Wedding Song" in the background. Gandolfini, 46, sported a black tuxedo.
Gandolfini's son Michael, 8, from his first marriage to Marcy Wudarsk was the best man.
Following the ceremony, the newlyweds headed to the Kahala Resort in a white stretch limo to celebrate in the Maile Room, which overlooks a lagoon with dolphins.
Wearing green orchid lei around their neck, the affectionate couple sat at a raised table surrounded by white flowers during the five-course sit down dinner. On the menu? Filet mignon, Mahi Mahi, and pasta.
According to a partygoer, Gandolfini had his arm around Lin's waist the entire night as they mingled with guests and posed for photos.
At one point in the evening, Gandolfini kissed his bride's hand and gushed, "I am the luckiest man in the world!" to which she replied, "you're making me blush!"
Said one guest of their PDA: “He wanted to let everyone know they were one, and she was his."
“Tony is very affectionate," a family member raved. "“What you see from him is how he is.”
Gandolfini and Lin picked Celine Dion's song "Because You Loved Me" for their first dance.
The couple had been dating for about two years when they got engaged while vacationing in the Bahamas in late 2007.
