Matt Damon's Wedding Day
Us magazine taketh away celebrity love, but it also giveth. Not 24 hours after news that Matt Damon and fianc e Luciana Barroso were with child, comes yet another Us exclusive: the couple was wed in a quickie marriage at New York City Hall.
Us Weekly has learned exclusively that actor Matt Damon, 35, and girlfriend of two years Luciana Bozan*, 29, got married this morning in New York City in a brief ceremony officiated by a justice of the peace. Damon's publicist Jennifer Allen confirmed the wedding to Us. Sources tell Us that Damon and Bozan, a former bartender who is about three months pregnant and has a 7-year-old daughter from a previous relationship, exchanged vows in front of Bozan's daughter Alexa. A source at New York City Hall confirms to Us that the couple wed this morning inside city hall. "They did it real quick and then started calling all their friends with the good news," says a Damon pal. "It's not a secret. They're telling everyone."
Despite the last minute nature of the affair, we understand no expense was spared: guests dined on the finest knishes and pretzels available from a curbside cart; the bouquet was caught by Vito Fossella, a 69-year old sanitation engineer from Staten Island, NY; and the happy couple were showered with good wishes and empty beer cans as they skampered down the City Hall steps and attempted to board an awaiting cab—only to see it claimed by a commodities broker who snapped, "I don't give a shit who you are, I'm late for a midtown lunch," before slamming the door in their faces. They will not soon forget the tender memories of their special day.
*Bozan is her maiden name, which she has been using lately; Barroso is her name from her first marriage.
