Grammy Awards, schmammy awards. Reality TV lovebirds Sean Lowe and Catherine Giudici were married in a live Bachelor TV wedding event Sunday night! His dad Jay officiated the ceremony and called the romance of the duo, who got engaged in late 2012, “an epic fairytale on display for the whole world to see.” Sean Lowe , 30, watched Giudici, 27, walk down the aisle in a Monique Lhuillier gown. Soon enough, the beautiful bride was tearing up as she read her vows. “The first time that I saw you, you were like a light to my bug. I had to find you. You mesmerize me with how brightly you shine,” Catherine told him at the altar. “Sometimes I feel like I’m going to explode by how much I love you … I’m completely consumed by you … I promise to love you after my heart bursts.” “You are my dream and my reality.” “From the moment I met you I wanted more. You had me hooked from the beginning and I didn’t want to let you go,” Sean Lowe then told Catherine Giudici . “We met in the strangest way possible … I know we met on The Bachelor so that I could fall in love with my best friend … Every day I am encouraged by your love and your selflessness.” “I’m going to love you for eternity.” The bridesmaids, including Giudici’s BFF from the season of The Bachelor where she met Sean, Lesley Murphy, also wore gowns designed by Monique Lhuillier. Sean Lowe’s niece and nephew, Kensington and Smith, served as the flower girl and ring bearer, and Cat’s nephew, Dylien, was a second ring bearer. In addition to the couple’s family and friends, there were several familiar faces from The Bachelor and Bachelorette worlds, including Trista and Ryan Sutter. Ashley Hebert and J.P. Rosenbaum, Jason and Molly Mesnick, Desiree Hartsock and Chris Siegfried, Arie Luyendyk, Jef Holm and others attended as well. Even Juan Pablo Galavis, the current star of the show (see The Bachelor spoilers to read how his journey for love turns out) was on hand for the event. Congratulations to the happy couple!

He lost out to Macklemore & Ryan Lewis in a number of key categories, but Kendrick Lamar still took the Grammys stage by storm on Sunday evening. Performing with Imagine Dragons, the rapper performed a mashup of the band’s hit “Radioactive” with “M.A.A.D City” from his album, Good Kid, M.A.A.D. City . Watch the show-stopping live collaboration below: Imagine Dragons and Kendrick Lamar Grammy Awards Performance Lamar’s record was nominated for the Album of the Year and Best Rap Album, and the up-and-comer was up for five more awards at the annual event. Should he have been among the 2014 Grammy Awards winners ? Maybe believe so. But any perceived snub should only fuel the talented youngster. Lamar’s debut studio album, which ranked second on the Billboard 200, has already earned him extensive critical acclaim as well as wide popularity. GQ named him Rapper of the Year for 2013. For the performance, the band and rapper dressed in all white and rocked out on the smoke-filled stage, strobe lights blazing and sound pulsating. The sound cut out multiple times during Lamar’s explicit rhymes, while Jay Z, Beyonce, Lorde , Katy Perry, Robin Thicke and Steven Tyler danced in approval. Soon after the energetic performance generated major buzz, Imagine Dragons debuted the remix to “Radioactive,” featuring Kendrick Lamar, on iTunes. Among Kendrick Lamar ‘s pre-game advice to his Imagine Dragons collaborators: “Don’t go against your own shit … I don’t want anybody to do anything fake.” Mission accomplished. 2014 Grammy Awards Performances Open Slideshow 1.
