At one point Watts hit the dance floor with Kidman's son Connor, 11. The highlight of the evening? When the groom serenaded his bride with his hit "Making Memories of Us." "He was absolutely focused on her, and she was crying and everybody was crying," a guest says of the performance, which got a standing ovation. Adds another guest: "When Keith was finished, he made a joke that his bandmates would be happy because he could still play the guitar well with his wedding ring on. Everyone laughed."
The laughs – and tears – rolled on with a series of speeches, including a few wisecracks from Jackman (who joked that while paparazzi focused on the newlyweds, he, Crowe and Watts had gone skinny-dipping with media mogul and fellow guest Rupert Murdoch at Bondi Beach) and touching toasts by the bride's parents as well as Urban's dad, Bob, 64. "Bob gave a toast that was about a minute long, but so heartfelt and so difficult for him because he doesn't normally do that," says an Urban friend. "He is so proud of his son. It was a tender moment." Says a friend of Kidman's: "It was very much a family wedding. It was full of family love."
