Kelly & Mark's Honeymoon Headless Horror!

Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos marked their 30th wedding anniversary on May 1, 2026, reflecting on their 1996 elopement in Las Vegas. The couple, who met on the set of 'All My Children,' shared a humorous anecdote about their honeymoon in Italy, where their disposable camera photos famously lacked heads, earning them the moniker 'the headless honeymooners.'

Despite the photo mishap, their 1996 wedding was remarkably economical, costing just $179 including airfare. Ripa mentioned that a large, traditional wedding might have jeopardized their long-lasting union. She also revealed that she continues to wear her elegant, lacy wedding dress, purchased for under $200, as a beach cover-up, a testament to its versatility and her foresight. The couple, now parents to three children, reside in a $27 million townhouse in Manhattan, which they purchased 12 years ago. Their home reflects a blend of French and Old Hollywood glamour, inspired by 'Mommie Dearest.'
