Mel Walks His Daughter Down the Aisle

Posted Sep 18th 2006 10:25AM by TMZ Staff

Mel Gibson came out of seclusion Saturday to the sound of chiming wedding bells. The embattled actor proudly walked his 26-year-old daughter Hannah down the aisle, as she married blues guitarist Kenny Wayne Shepherd. Hannah is the eldest of Mel's seven children and his only daughter.

The lavish ceremony took place at Holy Family Catholic Church in Agoura Hills, Calif., which Mel built using his own personal fortune. The traditional Catholic ceremony was reportedly performed entirely in Latin.

After the ceremony, the happy couple was promptly whisked away in a jet black limousine, as both cameras and well-wishers looked on.

Shepherd is no newbie to fame; the musician achieved his first platinum album while in high school and received a Grammy nomination for both his "Trouble" and "Live On" albums.

31. Hannah, herself a devout Catholic was on the path to becoming a nun up until a couple years ago. Kenny proposed to her in Italy on New Year's Eve 2004 (after allegedly asking Mel's permission, first) and I wager she will follow in her parents' footsteps and have many children--she is Mel's eldest of 7 and the only girl. My source inside the wedding said that Mel was beaming (and sober!) and her brothers were all over the place in very high spirits. Security in the "villa" was extremely tight and staff signed confidentiality agreements.

32. Lisa.....................response to your comment #30
I couldn't agree with you more.
Obviously "JOHN" AND " POOR PISS FRED" has some serious inner issues within themselves.
They tend to forget that Jesus forgave all of us for all our sins.
But yet they continue to have "DIRRAEAH" of the mouth .

we all have made mistakes along the way, and surely most of us have learned from them

JOHN and Fred are just as much of a HIPPROCRAT than they accuse Mel Gibson of..............you guys have yourself a great day despite your racial and insulting comments

You very much so have "inner issues" when you continue to attack someone you do not know
