Brad and Angie have wed!

[darksithbunny]

I just saw it on TV. They got married in a Buddist ceremony. So much for "No third party was involved in our divorce."

[A*O]

Purleeze - Mick Jagger and Jerry Hall had some kind of Buddhist marriage nonsense which wasn't legal AT ALL.

I haven't seen/heard anything about it yet. There was just a story the other day that they were married and they denied it. Blah.

Britain's Daily Star magazine has recently claimed that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie got married in a secret Buddhist ceremony and presented the pictures to prove it. Brad in a blue suit, Jolie in a white wedding dress...

But let's hear what Pitt's publicist had to say about that: “They've used a wedding picture from (movie) Mr. and Mrs. Smith and run with this story on the front page. There's simply no truth to this whatsoever.”

The magazine was quoting a source that was saying: “They exchanged vows in a Buddhist ceremony – which isn't legally binding – but in Brad and Angelina's eyes they're married.”. They also wrote that on Brad's wedding finger a “thick gold band” was spotted.

Pit and Angelina fell in love since shooting “Mr. And Mrs. Smith”.
The actor ended his marriage with Jennifer Aniston earlier this year, after four years of happiness.
He had wanted a child from Aniston, but the former “Friends” star wasn't ready at the time.

yea...they didn't get married.

I read somewhere that they exchanged vows in a Buddast ceremony, but it is not a legal marrage in the eyes of the USA.

Since when did either of them ever claim a religious affiliation? It's like, non-religious (or whatever) celebrities are too cool to just go to the courthouse, so they pick something at random, so it becomes a "ceremony" rather than just paper signing.

The laws for what is considered a valid marriage or not differs from state to state. In Florida, if you've got a marriage license, you can go to a notary and have them perform a ceremony - it has to be an actual serious ceremony, anyway - at least according to state law. I was married by a notary, with no witnesses. Once, while I was still a notary, I performed a wedding. In neither case did it have anything to do with religion.

A Buddhist ceremony would work just fine, provided they had a license, and the person signing off on the marriage license was recognized as valid by the state it's registered in. If Elvis can marry you in Vegas, then anyone can, right?

wow, anything to sell a story.

Where are the pictures they have?

There are no pictures... they ran screencaps from Mr and Mrs Smith!
