After 28 year together and two grown children Gene Simmons and Shannon Tweed officially tied the known this weekend in an evening ceremony on the crystal lawn at the Beverly Hills Hotel.

According to reports the Saturday wedding left guests cheering as Gene finally said “I do” to his long time partner.  T

Tweed, 54 wore a beautiful ivory Priscilla of Boston gown and carried ivory garden roses down the isle. When all was said and done Tweed wore three different dresses for her special day.

According to guests the couple read their own vows to an audience of 400 guests that including Gene’s fellow members of KISS, Bill Maher and others. Tweed chose daughter Sophie, 19, to be her maid of honor and their other child Nick, 22, was also in attendance.

In a special salute to their very long courtship the couple’s first dance was “At Last” by Etta James and it was performed by their daughter Sophie.

Before proposing Gene and Shannon were on rocky terms, Simmons whisked his then girlfriend off on a private vacation which aired on their reality TV show Gene Simmons Family Jewels proposing to her just as the shows season drew to an end without an answer.

Does it surprise you that it took Gene 28 years to propose or are you more surprised by the fact that a wedding ever happened in the first place?

Gene Simmons is going to get married, but he’s not quite ready to commit to just one woman. Simmons said that he’ll do his best to be faithful to his bride, Shannon Tweed, who he has been dating for 28-years. But a vow? He just can’t do it.

In a preview of the upcoming season of “Gene Simmons Family Jewels,” Tweed says that Simmons won’t promise to be faithful. The 62-year-old Kiss star could only reply, “I will do my best.”

That doesn’t mean that the former Kiss member isn’t in love with Tweed. Simmons told Clicker TV:

“It is time for me to grow up. I’m 62. I’ve been doing a lot of wacky stuff for an awfully long time — the band, the thing, traveling around the world and all that. There’s nobody I’ve ever loved. There’s nobody I’ve ever said ‘I love you’ to. I even find it difficult to say ‘I love you’ to my mother, but I love Shannon with all my heart and all my soul and always will.”

And the longtime rocker will have plenty of temptations. Radar Online reports that Ashley Madison, the “we make it easy to discreetly cheat on your partner” service, sent Simmons 1 million Ashley Madison credits, which will allow him to “pursue unlimited discreet affairs for the rest of your life.”

Gene Simmons wedding to Shannon Tweed will happen tonight, but you’ll have to wait until October 4th to see it on A&E.

Do you think Gene Simmons will go through with his wedding? Will he vow to be faithful? Maybe Simmons should think about one of these temporary marriage licenses that Mexico City is about to make legal.

In 1984 KISS front man Gene Simmons, 62, met actress and Playboy Playmate Shannon Tweed, 54, and a courtship began that has lasted 27 years and two children. Now amidst a relationship that was falling apart the couple are getting married.

Gene and Shannon are set to tie the note on October 1st at the Beverly Hills Hotel.

The couple have two children together Nick, 22 and Sophie 19 and the family is featured together on their hit A&E reality show Gene Simmons Family Jewels.

As you probably recall if you’re a fan of the show, last season ended with Gene getting down on one knee and proposing to Tweed, although the season finale cut out before she gave her obvious answer.

The new season of Gene Simmons Family Jewels is scheduled to premier on October 4 on A&E.

If you’re not fan of the show let me bring you up to speed on the couple’s rocky relationship of late. Gene began seeing a therapist on a regular basis last season, attempting to deal with his lack of commitment to his family. Gene is a workaholic who took calls during family vacations, special occasions and every other chance he got. As last season moved forward Shannon, eventually sick of Gene’s lack of commitment and constant partying with female fans moved out of the house for a short period of time, forcing Gene to rethink his anti-marriage stance. After intentionally destroying his phone during a vacation to prove his commitment Gene took Shannon to a private dinner on a boardwalk and proposed, ending Gene’s 27-year anti-marriage vow which had come under constant discussion on the show.

Why do you think Gene Simmons finally decided to propose to Shannon Tweed?

Here’s a copy of the couple’s wedding invitation:

Gene Simmons and Shannon Tweed Set Wedding Date After 27 Years is a post from: The Inquisitr

After 28 years as a couple KISS rocker Gene Simmons finally popped the question to girlfriend Shannon Tweed during the season finale of “Gene Simmons Family Jewels.”

The engagement proposal came after the previous episode finally showed the emotional side of Gene as he broke down in a therapy session with his entire family.

Gene took Tweed to Belize for the proposal where he threw his phone in a pitcher of water to avoid business calls and then took Shannon hiking, flying and on a bunch of other adventures that he would normally not enjoy but knew she would love.

Taking a traditional step Gene even asked Tweed’s mom for permission to marry her daughter, to which she said yes but that she would kill him if he hurt her daughter.

Gene attempted to propose while on a romantic flight over the area but waited until later due to aviation noise, eventually proposing to Tweed by the water, where she paused and then the words “to be continued” appeared across the screen.

While the series left us hanging with no answer from Tweed herself, a ring appears on her finger during the closing confessional which may or may not have been an engagement ring.

In the series, which follows the life of KISS bassist and vocalist Gene Simmons, his longtime partner Shannon Tweed, and their two children, the couple has had their share of ‘fights’ but for the most part seemed happy.

This season however, Tweed finally admits she played nice for years while kids Nick and Sophie still lived at home, but daughter Sophie’s departure for college gave her an opening to finally confront Simmons over his ways and their 28-year relationship.

“Oh, we’re going to show lots of warts this year,” Tweed told TV Guide. “There were a lot of things that I kept to myself until they did go to college. A lot of mothers do that. A lot of couples stay together for the children. I think it’s an obligation that parents have… You made a commitment, you had children, you should see it through.”

The family admitted they might have been more guarded in Season One had this happened back then. But now, “the longer the cameras are there, the more real stuff you get to deal with,” Tweed says. “Familiarity brings out other issues and we don’t hide them.”

Check out the following awkward clip, in which MSNBC’s Today Show interviews Simmons and Tweed about season 6 of their show.

What do you think, is it a stunt to gain publicity for Family Jewels or is the seemingly struggling couple finished?

He’s Kiss vocalist/bass player, Family Jewels flaunter, serial promoter and happily unmarried to a playboy bunny. He’s Gene Simmons and he’s found another way to get his face in front of you – by encouraging you to pee on him.

Gene Simmons Family Jewels branded urinal cakes have been showing up in public restrooms around New York City recently. The puck sized deoderizers and disinfectants have an advertisment with Gene Simmons face emblazoned on them, giving you something to focus on and aim at while you’re releiving yourself. Personally, I’d be more releived if there were no aged rockstar looking up at me while I’m taking care of business, but that’s just me.

And what’s with him holding up his fingers like that. Is he supposed to be indicating how big (or how small?!?) something is?
