Rob Mariano and Amber Brkich exchanged vows under tight security at the Atlantis resort in the Bahamas. Guests at the wedding had to sign confidentiality agreements in order to attend the ceremony because CBS is turning it into a two-hour television event slated to air on May 24. The aptly titled special "Rob and Amber Get Married" will feature a "behind-the-scenes" look at the wedding preparations, including the bachelor and bachelorette parties, the preparations, and the big event.
Mariano originally appeared on Survivor: Marquesas and Brkich was on Survivor: The Australian Outback. The two met on Survivor: All Stars which reunited past contestants to compete against one another for the $1 million. Brkich won not only the $1 million prize, but Mariano’s heart. On the show’s live finale she wore a tee shirt that read, "I (heart) Rob," and he surprised her with a ring and a marriage proposal. Brkich beat Mariano by one vote, but said, "We didn’t even care who was going to win. We knew we both had each other for the rest of our lives."
Well, they enjoyed their courtship and engagement on television, so why not document the ceremony for the world to see? The duo are currently competing on the seventh season of The Amazing Race. They are doing very well with the race, so another $1 million prize may be theirs in the near future. Not to mention the unmentioned sum they received to have their wedding turned into a special of the week. They must be set for life. Reality TV whores or a really smart couple? You be the judge!
