If At First You Don’t Succeed… (Ned Ashton and Lois Cerullo)
“The viewers felt like they’d seen Ned a Lois go through a lot to get together, and to see it finally culminating in a wedding was the kind of satisfying moment where the angels sing and the heavens open up,” suggests Wally Kurth of his character’s joyous second union with babe-licious Brooklynite Lois Cerullo. The first time the two wed, it was in secret; after all, he was committing bigamy! So naturally, the second go-round, the couple wanted everything to be perfect – from the number of brides (just one) to the icing on the cake. They got off to a rocky start when the Quartermaine family yacht almost sank on the way to the ceremony. But when all was said and done, the day was just about perfect – and proved that the pair now knew that openness and honesty were the best policies. “The best part for me,” remembers Kurth, “ was when Lois ran through her old neighborhood in Lila’s wedding dress introducing Ned to all her old friends along the way.”

Going To The Chapel (Bo Buchanan and Nora Gannon)
In the summer of 1995, the biggest event to hit Llanview was a rock-‘n’-roll wedding – no kidding! They broke the mold as far as couples go when Bo and Nora got together, because no two people were ever more in sync than this dynamic duo… and their unique ceremony proved it! Adding to their once-in-a-lifetime romance, the couple found someone equally rare to pronounce them man and wife: legendary rocker Little Richard! Throwing caution to the wind, as well as throwing aside the traditional white wedding gown, the new Mrs. Buchanan was the belle of the ball that night in a bright fuchsia dress. And Bo, as always her equal, wore a tux that looked like it had its day in Grease. After the less-than-traditional nuptials, the bride and groom hosted an all-out sock hop for their party going guests.
