Just In: Ellen and Portia's Wedding Embrace

Talk show host/comedian Ellen DeGeneres and longtime girlfriend Portia de Rossi took advantage of the California law that allows gay couples to wed on Saturday night in Los Angeles. 

The couple, who've been an item since 2004, were married in a small ceremony with just 19 close friends and family, according to People magazine. This despite Ellen's joke earlier this year at the Daytime Emmys that "the wedding is now so big my gardener is invited."

The pair wore ensembles by Zac Posen and exchanged rings by Neil Lane.

Hollywood.tv was outside the Los Angeles home where the high-powered celeb wedding took place, bringing you footage of buzzing paparazzi helicopters overhead as well as some guest arrivals.

  • So who takes who's name? Only joking. I love Ellen because she's so funny. I'm not really for gay marriage, but I'm just happy that she's happy. She deserves happiness and anything good that happens to her because she is so giving and nice! =)

    • Ahh yes, you have to love when people run their hateful mouths and then are too scared to say their names. Anonymous posts are bullsh*t. Keep your comments to yourselves, because no one cares. I think straight people are gross, and are destroying the sanctity of marriage.

  • What is so "sick" or "gross" about this? Sorry to say this, and I'm not being blasphemous (only truthful) if God created us in his image, doesn't that mean that homosexuality isn't as abnormal as you all think? Think about it......something that has existed since the beginning of time can't be that abnormal....right? Don't be such brainwashed fools!!!! What about equality, love, compassion and non judgement? If homosexuality is so wrong in Gods eyes, then let him judge when they get to face him!!!! By the way, I'm straight too!! Just sick to death of all the bible bashing freaks out there! By the way, despite what is written here, I blieve in God!

    This IS sick. These women are going straight to hell... or gayly to hell.

    Either way, it's an abomination.

    Portia de Rossi is WAY too hot to be marrying the likes of Ellen.

    FOR SHAME!!!

  • Well try really hard to wrap your mind around the fact that God has been creating gay people since the beginning of time. Do you think that people choose to be looked upon as "sick" or "disgusting?" Do you really think anyone would choose a harder life? I don't. It's because people can't help how they feel and who they are. You are the sick ones who can't accept it, and accept that it has absolutely nothing to do with your lives

  • This is so wrong. Our country was not brought up this way - and you who think that THIS is God's plan for people? A marriage was originally meant for a MAN and a WOMAN, not a woman and a woman, and that's how it should stay. Just a couple years ago, you NEVER heard of this nonsense. What has gotten into people? It's so horribly sad how people eyes are blinded.
