Guitar virtuoso Eddie Van Halen is no longer a solo: Saturday night he married Janie Liszewski, his girlfriend of three years.
The ceremony took place in the garden of his seven acre estate in the hills above Studio City, CA., starting at 7:00pm., when Liszewski walked down the aisle to Van Halen's "When It's Love," performed by the Sonus Quartet.
The 54-year-old groom's 18-year-old son, Wolfgang, served as best man, while brother Alex Van Halen, an ordained minister, officiated at the 20-minute, non-denominational service. Among the 100 guests: Van Halen's ex-wife, Valerie Bertanelli (they divorced in 2006, after 25 years of marriage.)
The bride, 39, was given away by her mother under the watchful eye of Kano, the 15-year-old pomeranian who walked Liszewski down the aisle. This was her first marriage and Van Halen's second.
Liszewski wore a champagne and pink custom-designed Hanna Hartnell gown with matching Bulgari earrings and bracelet. Her sister Jennifer, served as maid of honor. Eddi and Wolfie dressed casually in Sy Devore cotton pants, un-tucked buttoned-down shirts and flip-flop sandals - as did the bride and wedding attendants.
The couple wrote their vows and designed the rings - Janie's, a platinum band beside a nearly three-carat diamond engagement ring; Ed's, a gold band with yellow diamonds.
Non-Alcoholic Bar
At 7:30pm., guests were served appetizers such as mini hamburgers and corn dogs, roasted garlic-parmesan, french fries, and an assortment of non-alcoholic beverages from the lemonade bar. Later on, diners were treated to organic fare such as heirloom tomatoes, baby arugula salad, Niman Ranch filet mignon, orange and rosemary glazed grilled chicken, Mojito-marinated prawns and grilled vegetables.
The simple, elegant wedding cake was layered with white chocolate, strawberries, whipped cream and decorated with white hydrangeas. The bride and groom toasted with non-alcoholic French Sparkling Apple Cider and Sparkling Pear Juice honoring Eddie's year and a half of sobriety.
The evening's entertainment ranged from an aerial tissue performance to a contortionist in a clear plastic ball on top of the pool. After dinner, Ed chose Joe Cocker's "You Are So Beautiful" as the traditional first dance. Next came Janie's choice, Cyndi Lauper's "Time After Time," as she invited the guests to join them. DJ KMP provided the rest of the music as the bride and groom boogied into the night.
As the party ended, each guest received Calvin Klein and Kate Spade vases and flowers. They were also treated to old-fashioned-style candy, including ring pops, candy necklaces, pop rocks, wax lips and custom printed M&M's.
The couple plan to honeymoon in New York, Germany and the Netherlands, where Eddie was born.
Over atBravobride there is a white beaded wedding dress for sale. Only worn once. The purchase price of the dress was $900 and she is willing to sell it for only $350. It has a ball gown silhouette and it is a size 4.

Ryan O'Neal and longtime love Farrah Fawcett are finally getting married.
"I've asked her to marry me, again, and she's agreed," O'Neal, 68, tells Barbara Walters in an exclusive interview on ABC's "20/20."
O'Neal says the couple, who have been together since 1980, "will" wed "as soon as she can, say yes ... Maybe we can just nod her head." "I promise you, we will," he told Walters. "Absolutely."
The wedding is sure to be a high point in Fawcett's three-year battle with anal cancer that has left the actress, 62, now "fighting for her life."
As for the couple's attire during the wedding ceremony, O'Neal says he and Fawcett have joked that he'll dress "like a gigolo. You know? And a little thin mustache and slicked-back hair. I don't know. We have fun, we tease about that." "I used to ask her to marry me all the time," O'Neal tells Walters in the interview to air on Friday. "But ... it just got to be a joke, you know. We just joked about it."
The couple has a 24-year-old son, Redmond, who is currently in rehab following previous drug convictions.
Update: On Thursday, June 25, 2009, Farrah Fawcett, 62 passed away. Ryan O'Neal was by her side.

If you have girlfriends who think they might be close to being proposed to, then show them this ring.

Haylie Hocking, 27, only found out that strapping 30-year-old fitness fanatic Jason Brake made adult films just weeks before the big day.
A friend organising her hen night searched online for a male stripper and spotted Jason with a woman in a porn movie.
Now Haylie has called her vicar to cancel the wedding.
She said: "There was no way I could marry an adult film star."
The pair met last year when Jason became a customer at the garage where Haylie worked. He told her he was a personal trainer and the couple began dating.
She told a magazine she found he was a romantic, thoughtful and passionate lover and six months after meeting he moved into her flat in Bristol.
Jason, who regularly bought her flowers and jewellery, often went away at weekends, telling her he was training clients in a gym.
After eight months, he proposed and bought her a diamond engagement ring.
But Jason's secret emerged when Haylie's friend Lisa tried to book a stripper for a hen party. Lisa stumbled across a movie clip in which the male star looked like Jason. Haylie checked the website and realised it was Jason.
After he finally admitted he was earning money from making porn, she called off the wedding.
Haylie said: "I don't know if I will ever be able to trust a man again."
Jason said he started making occasional films as a sideline before meeting Haylie.
He said: "The sex side is purely for the camera, but Haylie did not understand I was only acting."
"I am sorry and did not want to hurt her. I still love Haylie and would have stopped doing porn if she had asked me to."
He added that he would be honest with women in future relationships.

When talking to your florist about your wedding needs remember these ten things.
1. Confirm their availability on your wedding date.
2. Discuss the size of your wedding party.
3. Discuss the ceremony location and reception. Alot of times the florist is already familiar with the locations. If not, they will want to have a meeting at the site(s).
4. Discuss all of your decor needs for every event you will be having. Rehearsal dinner, after wedding brunch, etc.
5. Take a look at their portfolio and see if their style fits your needs. If they are a new florist ask if they can make a sample bouquet or centerpiece.
6. Discuss your budget.
7. Discuss if the florist has done design work for other weddings of the same size as yours.
8. Make sure you take photos of bouquets and centerpieces that you liked. A swatch of the bridesmaids dresses and of your dress and or photos of the dresses.
9. Discuss the down-payment requirements and or contract signing requirements.
10. Make sure your personalities "mesh" with each other. You don't want to work with a florist you can't stand.

It's the wedding season in Japan but instead of opting for a small event in tough times, couples can rent fake family, friends and colleagues to plump up the guest list.
Many in Japan see weddings as a formal event that must be attended by as many family members, friends and co-workers as possible. At the party, bosses often give speeches, colleagues or friends stage performances and families greet other guests.
But what if you've got no one to do that for you?
"We'll attend the wedding as your friend instead of your friend," Hiroshi Mizutani, who heads Office Agents in Tokyo, a company that rents out guests, told Reuters.
"Suddenly, a guest might not be able to make it. Or maybe you are concerned about the gap in the number of guests you have compared to your partner. Or, there are many temp workers these days and they may be uncomfortable inviting the boss."
For Y20,000 yen ($230), Office Agents provides a staff member to attend the ceremony. For an additional Y5,000 yen, that person can perform a song or a dance. Pitch in another Y10,000 yen and that person can make a speech that would make you proud.
As recession hits Japan, Mizutani said work-related requests are rising, with clients asing for a fake boss, who in real life may have become too busy for the wedding after losing his job, or co-workers for temporary workers that switch offices often without getting to know those they work with.
At one wedding, all 30 of the family, friends and co-workers of the groom were fakes, Mizutani said. This was the second marriage for the groom, who wanted to avoid inviting the same guests from the first wedding.
The firm gets about 100 wedding requests per year and has some 1,000 fakes available for various occasions, including funerals and training seminars.
It even offers fake lovers to introduce to your family and stand-in secretaries for those that want to look important.
The key qualification for Office Agents' staff is that they do not stand out.
"What's important is that these are normal people ... normal as in they are cheery and clean and look like they have regular jobs," Mizutani said.
Sometimes not even the marriage is aware.
"People are proud and they don't want to tell their partner that they do not have many friends," Mizutani said.
"The environment is so that people don't have anyone to invite. It may be that they are lonely and it may also be that the way people work are changing."
