NICOLE FELD & JONATHAN STRAUSS - MAY 28, 2006 FOUR SEASONS RESORT, NEVIS

When the circus is your life, a wedding might be the ultimate opportunity to do something over the top. But Nicole Feld, producer of Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus - and eldest daughter of circus owner Kenneth Feld and his wife Bonnie - decided to make this a low-key event.

"As someone who produces shows for a living, I didn't want to produce a wedding," Nicole said. Instead, she chose to elope with her longtime love - casting director Jonathan Strauss - to the Four Seasons resort in Nevis, a tiny island in the Caribbean. After dating for six years, Jonathan and Nicole opted for a short engagement: just six-weeks.

Over Memorial Day weekend, the young couple wed in a sunset ceremony before 18 family members. Nicole wore a Vera Wang gown which her trusted stylist, Katie Jaggers from Saks Fifth Avenue, selected from the store's bridal department in New York.

After a two-week honeymoon in Portugal and Spain, Nicole and Jon headed back to the U.S. for an extended celebration.

JoAnn and Stanley Pearlman, Shirley Feld, Tom and Susan Gage, David and Suzanne Hillman and Rynthia Rost headed to Manhattan to party with the newlyweds at Spice Market, Jean-Georges Vongerichten's chic new restaurant in the meat-packing district.

Nicole claims that marriage hasn't changed anything. "It hasn't hit me. I hope it's always like this. We're still dating," she says.

Nicole has a glow that only a wedding, true love, or a good microdermabration facial can achieve .... And yes, Jonathan has a glow too!

Mr. Strauss is best known as the casting director for television's "Law & Order SVU."

Henry Penndorf,
Where in the hell do you find this stuff? As a "historian" of note in the circus field it is expected. Thank's for answering my question in a BIG way.
Best wishes,

There's another Paris?

Buckles,
Do you see what is wrong with this deal? "Cute namer" can't take your word for it and has to go over your head to Barbara, in the hope's of causing a problem. They also misinterpreted "flushed with excitement" to mean "aglow."

Barbara,
Everybody goes to the other Paris, it's no big deal. Only a man deeply in love, takes his "special girl" to THE Paris, one of cupid's little know secret's.

P.S. Buckles let her interpret this patch how she want's, I'm out of it. Sorry for bringing it up.
Wade Burck LOL

To those of you who have not been to Paris Texas, it is just down the road from Pittsburg.

Paris, TX, no doubt a more romantic destination than the other Paris (IL) and a lot closer to Hugo.

There is also a Paris, Michigan.

Maybe the $15.00 cotton candy paid for the Vera Wang wedding gown.
