Backstreet Boy takes a bride

Backstreet Boy Brian Thomas Littrell used a side street door as he made his debut as a married man, having exchanged vows with actress Leighanne Reena Wallace during a candlelit ceremony in Atlanta, according to a published report Monday.

And the couple, who already have a house together, managed to marry away from the screaming mobs of young fans who usually accompany Backstreet Boys' public appearances, said the report in The Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

White and black stretch limousines deposited about 300 formally attired guests in front of the church just prior to the wedding while six Atlanta Police officers monitored the area.

Inside, the bride walked down the aisle in a Vera Wang-designed, white satin tight-bodiced gown which flowed outward from the waist.

The groom and his groomsmen wore charcoal gray tuxedoes and top hats during the traditional 35-minute ceremony. Littrell removed his hat during his vows.

All four of Littrell's bandmates, Nick Carter, Howie Dorough, A.J. McLean and Littrell's cousin Kevin Richardson, attended the service. After the ceremony, Littrell and Wallace stepped into a vintage black-and-white Rolls Royce with "Just Married" scripted on the back. Littrell, 25, met Wallace, 30, in Los Angeles in 1997 when the Backstreet Boys were shooting a video for the song "As Long As You Love Me", in which Wallace appeared.
