Sticking to tradition, the bride and groom cut the cake – five-tiered, white chocolate mousse, decorated with marzipan roses – and fed each other a piece, which they followed with "a big kiss on the lips," says the guest. Next, the entire group moved outside to a courtyard, where a fireworks display exploded in the night fog to classical music. "It was a wall of lights cascading down from the balconies like water," says actress Leah Remini. "It was so beyond what your mind could compute."
That wasn't the grand finale. Following the fireworks, guests moved into another castle hall decorated "like this sexy black-and-white nightclub," says Remini. With deejay Mark Ronson spinning tunes, "everyone was dancing all night," she says. "Tom and Katie were dancing in the middle of the crowd." At one point, Cruise sang along with the Righteous Brothers' "You've Lost That Lovin' Feeling" (the same one he croons in Top Gun!). Katie "was completely touched – laughing, loving him and enjoying him," says Remini. At another point, "everyone was dancing, and a Jennifer Lopez song came on, and then J.Lo started singing live in the center," says a guest. At 3:30 a.m., Tom, Katie, Connor and Bella were still partying. "It was the perfect night," says another guest, "a crescendo to the whole beautiful wedding experience."
