Honey Boo Boo‘s parents are getting married today in Georgia! ‘Mama June’ June Shannon and ‘Sugar Bear’ Mike Thompson will tie the knot nine years after meeting online.

The nuptials will be filmed by TLC for a segment dubbed Cinco de Mayo Wedding Fiesta that will air in the future.

Mama June and Sugar Bear met in an internet chatroom and soon moved in together. Two years later they welcomed daughter Alana Thompson.

Sugar Bear said it was love at first sight but according to June … not so much. In the video below, she claims she was just looking for a hookup.

Wedding guests have been instructed that no cell phones, cameras or video taping will be allowed during the wedding bash.

Those working at the event were told to show up in full redneck attire in shades of hot pink or camo, and we’re guessing 4-wheeling and pig chasing will be part of the festivities.

The family first gained fame when Alana appeared on ‘Toddlers & Tiaras’ followed by her own spinoff. Season 3 of TLC’s ‘Here Comes Honey Boo Boo’ will premiere on July 17.

Keira Knightley and James Righton got married on Saturday during an intimate ceremony at the town hall in Mazan, a small village in Provence.

The actress, 28, was first introduced to her future husband by fashion correspondent Alexa Chung. James is a vocalist and keyboardist for the London-based band Klaxons.

The couple announced their engagement a year ago and tied the knot in a 30 minute service on May 4, 2013.

Knightley, who has owned a small wine-growing farm in the southeastern France region since 2010, wore a strapless knee length dress and Chanel jacket that she paired with white flats.

Their 30-50 guests are staying at the Chateau de Mazan, a four-star hotel in the village of 6,000.

Following the service, the group attended an afternoon garden luncheon followed by an evening tent party with entertainment provided by Righton’s British indie rock band.

NBA legend Michael Jordan married Yvette Prieto Saturday in Palm Beach, Florida.

The 50-year-old owner of the Charlotte Bobcats exchanged wedding vows with his model fiancee at the Bethesda-by-the-Sea Episcopal Church before making his way to the reception held in a massive 40,000 square foot tent at the Bears Club on the golf course founded by Jack Nicklaus in 1999.

The groom wore a black tuxedo and his bride wore a French silk voile corseted sheer sheath gown by J’Aton Couture, in an ecru palette with accents of flesh tones and enhanced with Swarovski crystals.

She was able to enter the church without being photographed thanks to a group of seven men who shielded her from view with large white umbrellas.

The bridesmaid numbered eight and were dressed in grey floor length gowns in various styles.

Michael’s mother Deloris Peoples was among the 300 attendees. Others included former New York Knicks Patrick Ewing, former Chicago Bulls Scottie Pippen and his wife, Spike Lee and Ahmad Rashad.

The after party was just a short walk away from Jordan’s mega-estate in the exclusive gated community of Jupiter. His neighbor Tiger Woods attended solo … opting not to bring his girlfriend Lindsey Vonn to the high profile event – pic here.

Entertaining at the event were DJ MC Lyte, K’Jon, Robin Thicke, Usher, The Source and an 18-piece band.

Jordan divorced his first wife, Juanita Vanoy Jordan, in 2006. Their three children Jeffrey, 24, Marcus, 22, and Jasmine, 19, attended the ceremony.

Michael’s daughter tweeted, “It’s been a long & beautiful day.”

Jasmine wasted little time in leaving the Sunshine State behind. She posted on Twitter, “Good morning. Thank God for this glorious day. Once again, I’m headed to the airport. Back to Syracuse I go. Ending my junior year this week.”

‘Little House on the Prairie’ child star Melissa Gilbert married actor Timothy Busfield on Wednesday in Santa Barbara.

The bride, 48, got engaged to the former ‘West Wing’ star at Christmas time and tied the knot yesterday during a private ceremony at the San Ysidro Ranch.

She wore a long flowing red strapless gown and held a bouquet of colorful spring flowers – see the wedding photo here.

According to her 2009 autobiography ‘Prairie Tales,’ Melissa has battled alcoholism and drug addiction.

Last year the actress signed on for Season 14 of ‘Dancing with the Stars.’ She and her Russian pro partner Maks Chmerkovskiy were eliminated the week before the semi-final round, achieving a respectable 5th place finish.

Busfield, 55, is the father of three children. Gilbert, twice divorced, has two sons – Dakota Brinkman, 24, and Michael Boxleitner, 17.

Matt Damon Renews Wedding Vows in St. Lucia

Actor Matt Damon and his wife Luciana Barroso renewed their wedding vows yesterday on the eastern Caribbean island of St. Lucia. The event was witnessed by 50 of their closest friends and family members.

The 15-minute ceremony took place under a thatched roof at sunset followed by a cocktail reception on the beach. The groom wore a tan suit with flip-flops and the bride wore a cream colored gown that featured a sequined belt.

The couple met in 2003 at the Miami bar where she was bartending while he was on location shooting the film ‘Stuck on You.’ They married two years later in a private civil ceremony at City Hall in NYC in 2005 — eight years ago.

Matt reportedly shelled out nearly $1 millions for the vow renewal celebration, including taking over exclusive Sugar Beach Resort to accommodate their guests.

The couple’s four daughters — Isabella, 6, Gia, 4, Stella, 2, and Alexia, Luciana’s teenage daughter from a previously relationship — were on hand for the big day. The proud dad admits, “Lucy and the girls can definitely bring me to my knees.”

High-profile celebrity guests included Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner, Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones.

Damon said during a recent Playboy interview, “People think I’m kind of vanilla and they leave me alone to work, have an actual private life and be a husband and dad.”

He acknowledges that there is room for improvement on his part, “I wish I were better because my wife deserves somebody who surprises her with a gift or flowers or some wonderful idea . . . .I’ve never been good at that, and she’s really good at it, which makes me feel even more like sh-t.”

That said, it would seem that MD has redeemed himself in a big way.
