Tying The Knot

Bobby Brown is managing to kill two giant birds with one stone ... a concert with his band and his long-awaited wedding -- all in one weekend trip to Hawaii.

Sources tell TMZ ... Brown and his fiancée -- Alicia Etheridge -- have finally set a wedding date after 2 years of engagement bliss ... and it's the same weekend Brown's band New Edition will be performing in Honolulu.

We're told the nuptials will take place on the weekend of June 15th ... Brown will be flying out some of his family and friends to the island, to witness the ceremony he has dubbed his "big day."

The duo has been engaged since May 2010 and have one child together.

Bobby was previously married to Whitney Houston who passed away in February.

"Biggest Loser" contestant Joe Messina's recent nuptials violated the one cardinal rule of weddings everywhere -- GET EVERYONE WASTED -- because booze was NOT allowed at the party.

TMZ broke the story ... the former Season 13 contestant tied the knot recently in Michigan -- and 12 other current and former contestants attended -- but the wedding party lacked a key ingredient .... alcohol.

Sources tell us ... the groom and his "Loser" guests are serious as a heart attack when it comes to their new healthy lifestyle -- so they axed all forms of alcohol from the menu (alcoholic drinks contain a lot of calories). Thankfully, we're told the crowd -- which was pretty religious -- didn't drink much anyway.

But Joe's reign of terror didn't end there -- we're told he also subbed a real wedding cake for low-fat pumpkin cake pops ... and served only food from the "Biggest Loser Cookbook" ... such as:

-- Grilled Chicken with Mango, Thai Quinoa Salad
-- Tossed Salad
-- Fresh Fruit Salad
-- Asian Chopped Salad
-- Salad Salad

And just when you thought it couldn't get any worse ... we're told the guests actually WORKED OUT before the ceremony.

Jennifer Aniston and boyfriend Justin Theroux are planning a wedding thousands of miles away from Hollywood ... TMZ has learned.

Sources connected with the Elounda Beach Hotel in Crete (where Aniston's dad was born, located about 230 miles south of Greece) tell TMZ ... Aniston was there recently, scoping the place out. Our sources say Aniston mentioned a July wedding.

The hotel website boasts a wedding package that includes:

-- A dedicated consultant
-- Legal, License Paperwork Requirements
-- Civil or Religious Ceremony outside of the Hotel’s Church
-- Bridal Bouquet, Groom's Boutonniere, decoration of the club car
-- Bottle of champagne & Greek Wedding Sweets after the ceremony for the bride & groom

You get all that, plus a series of other complimentary services, for about $2,300.

Aniston made that for roughly 2 seconds of work on "Friends."

BTW, one of the hotel big wigs says Aniston hasn't settled on his hotel for the nuptials ... as he put it, "She has connections on the other side of the island as well."

Every reality show on the planet should give up NOW -- because the girls on TLC's "My Big Fat American Gypsy Wedding" just set the record for the wildest, most ruthless catfight of all time ... and it was all caught on tape.

The fight went down last November at a "gypsy" wedding in West Virginia -- the smaller girl (Mellie) hails from the groom's side and the bigger girl (Diamond) was the maid of honor.

Sources tell TMZ, neither side of the family exactly approved of the union -- but Mellie took it one step further after the ceremony ... running her mouth about how the bride and groom don't belong together.

Diamond caught wind of it ... and FLIPPED -- shoving Mellie to the ground outside the church.

At that point, both girls unleashed fist-flying hell -- beating the living crap out of each other and pulling at each other's clothes until they were naked ... literally.

Angelina Jolie pulled a very special "Jolie" earlier today -- showing some leg on Hollywood Blvd ... while brandishing her fat new engagement ring.

The 36-year-old actress is serious wife material.

A gay rights group in California fully supports Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's decision to tie the knot ... even though Brangelia always swore they wouldn't get hitched until everyone had the right to marry.

As recently as last September, Brad told Ellen DeGeneres, "I’ve said that we would not be getting married until everyone in this country had the right to get married."

But Rebekah Orr, Communications Director for Equality California, says the group is totally behind the Brangelina marriage, even if the right to marry is still not enjoyed by everyone.

She tells us, "Marriage is something that says ‘we're a family’ in a way that nothing else can ... No one has to deny that for themselves or their family to prove they are an ally and supporter of equality."

After 6 children and 7 years as an unmarried couple, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are finally engaged -- this according to Brad's rep.

Brad's manager Cynthia Pett-Dante released a statement confirming the engagement, but says there's no wedding date yet -- as of now, the engagement is simply a "promise for the future."

Angelina was photographed on Wednesday wearing what appears to be her engagement ring. Click here for the photo.

Pitt and Jolie met on the set of "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" back in 2005. They have three biological children (the twins Vivienne and Knox, and daughter Shiloh) and three adopted children (Maddox, Pax, and Zahara).

Brad and Angelina had previously stated they would NOT get married until gay people could get married too -- but admitted their children were pressuring them to tie the knot.

This will be Brad's second marriage and Angelina's third. Angelina was previously married to actors Jonny Lee Miller and Billy Bob Thornton. Brad was previously married to Jennifer Aniston.

Jennifer Aniston is still unmarried.

Lingerie-wearing "Californication" actress Meagan Good has decided to take on a more heavenly role -- TMZ has learned ... she's now engaged to her preacher BF.

Meagan's rep tells TMZ, 30-year-old Good recently got engaged to DeVon Franklin -- an exec at Sony Pictures Entertainment who leads a double life as a 7th Day Adventist preacher.

A little rundown on your typical 7th Day Adventist -- he takes the Bible pretty literally, practices Sabbath on Saturday, doesn’t eat pork and frowns upon alcohol ... not that there's anything wrong with that.

According to Meagan's rep, the preacher proposed last month in L.A, but the couple has known each other for years. They began dating just after production wrapped on "Jumping the Broom" ... which Meagan starred in, and DeVon produced.

Australian motivational speaker and author of "Life Without Limbs" Nick Vujicic hung out on the beach taking pics of his hot new wife Kanae Miyahara, while on their honeymoon in Hawaii on Thursday.

29-year-old Vujicic was born with Tetra-amelia syndrome, a rare disorder characterized by the absence of all four limbs.

FYI -- Nick can write, type, play drums, brush his teeth ... and apparently take photos.

Chad Ochocinco has saved his relationship with Evelyn Lozada the old fashioned way ... with a lot of groveling ... and the wedding is back on, this according to sources close to the couple.

As TMZ first reported, Lozada put their wedding plans on hold after she suspected Ocho was stepping out on her.

But according to our sources, Ocho broke down this week and apologized. We're told Ocho said he would do whatever it took to win her back and suggested the two go to couple's counseling.

Our sources say Evelyn agreed and they will seek help to work out their trust issues.

Through a rep, Evelyn tells TMZ, "The strain from both our busy schedules started to take a serious toll on our relationship. Yet after spending some much needed quality time together, Chad and I are in a good space."

Steven Tyler's family better learn to love his fiancée -- because the "American Idol" judge told our photog yesterday at LAX the wedding is coming sooner rather than later.

As TMZ first reported, Tyler's fam has not been too happy about the engagement ... since they only found out AFTER the fact.

Magic conch shells, healing tea leaves ... Steven Tyler and his new fiancee spared no supernatural expense when they blessed their home last week -- and TMZ has learned all the details behind the spiritual experience.

The woman wearing the leaf hat -- or Ley Po'o in Hawaiian -- is Reverand Alalani Hill ... the lead spiritual Kahuna in Maui, who specializes in all sorts of Hawaiian blessings.

Hill tells TMZ, Steven and his fiancee Erin Brady reached out to her recently after buying their house in Hawaii -- and she accepted their invitation, blessing their new home as well as their blossoming relationship.

But it wasn't just a simple blessing -- an elaborate ceremony was involved in the spiritual cleansing process. According to Hill, Steven had to blow on a conch shell (below) to call to the surrounding mountains, ocean, land, and heavens to protect him and his fiancee ... and their new home.

Steven and Erin also had to wear tea leaves and a kukui (indigenous nuts) to represent light and a new beginning, and sing songs to bless the house.

Steven Tyler's big engagement news did NOT go over so well with several members of his family ... who are telling friends they simply don't like his new fiancee ... TMZ has learned.

Sources connected to the Tyler clan tell us ... several family members have clashed with Erin Brady for years ... and have told friends, "She's just not nice."

One source tells us, "She's just been mean to the family."

And to make matters worse -- we're told several family members have griped that they had no idea about Steven's proposal plan until AFTER he popped the question to 38-year-old Brady this weekend ... and they felt slighted by the omission.

Sources tell us ... the family members were hoping they could eventually repair the relationship with Erin, but now, they feel Steven has only widened the divide.

Multiple calls to Steven's rep have not been returned.

Steven Tyler is domesticating himself ... because his longtime GF was sporting a huge rock on her finger this weekend ... and sources close to the rocker tell us it's an ENGAGEMENT RING!

63-year-old Tyler and 38-year-old Erin Brady hit Maui on Xmas day ... along with a massive new diamond. It's unclear if Tyler proposed before or during the tropical vacay.

Jason Trawick jumped the engagement gun ... 'cause Britney Spears just posted a message hinting that he ALREADY popped the question ... and TMZ has learned she said yes!

Britney just went to her Facebook page and wrote, "OMG. Last night Jason surprised me with the one gift I've been waiting for. Can't wait to show you! SO SO SO excited!!!! Xxo."

Sources close to the couple tell TMZ ... Jason proposed last night ... and to celebrate, he organized a giant party in Vegas.

TMZ broke the story ... Britney knew Trawick was going to pop the question ... but it was SUPPOSED to happen tonight. Seems he just couldn't wait!

Sources close to the couple tell us ... the MASSIVE celebratory dinner will go down tonight at the Chocolate Lounge at the Sugar Factory in the Paris Hotel ... because Brit Brit LOVES chocolate.

We're told there will be a chocolate fondue fountain and all the men will get chocolate truffle cigars.

After dinner ... the gang is set to go to Chateau nightclub and party the night away.

We're told everyone involved in the fiesta has received specific marching orders -- anything Britney wants, Britney gets.

Although she once claimed to be a lesbian, controversial singer Sinead O'Connor celebrated her 45th birthday by marrying a man for the fourth time at a drive-thru wedding in Las Vegas yesterday.

Wearing a demure tattoo-revealing low-cut pink gown, Sinead walked down the aisle back of a Cadillac with fiancé Barry Herridge, 38, at the notorious Little White Wedding Chapel -- the same spot Britney Spears said I do to Jason Alexander in 2004.

As the happily married couple exited the chapel ... no one threw ripped up pics of the Pope.
