Sarah Didn't Wear White
Just like her Sex and the City character, Sarah made a major fashion statement on her wedding day: she wore black. While her ruffled black Morgane Le Fay dress has become iconic over the years, she actually regrets it. If she had the chance to do it over, she says she'd "wear a beautiful, proper wedding dress."

Their Reception Was Full of Show Tunes
Their love story first started on Off-Broadway, so it's only fitting that their reception included a handful of show tunes.
