Katharine McPhee: Don't Get Carried Away at Wedding
Originally posted 03/13/2008 07:40AM
After tying the knot last month in Beverly Hills, singer-actress Katharine McPhee shares details in the new, spring issue of InStyle Weddings about the ceremony when she married producer Nick Cokas – and offers advice to other brides.
The American Idol season-five runner-up's tip: "Remember that it's your wedding … At the end of the day, it's really about the expression of commitment in love and marriage. So don't get too carried away. A wedding is about the commitment of love that you're making to your partner. It's that simple."
So is the look a bride should seek. "Sometimes you look at bridal magazines and you're like, 'What is that concoction? Why is her hair piled on top of her head?' You should look like yourself!"
And be yourself, especially on your honeymoon. Hers was in Hawaii, where she was determined to take up surfing, "I'm not much of a lay-on-the-beach kind of girl," says McPhee, 23. "I want to be in the ocean."

Katharine McPhee gets a hand from her hubby Nick Cokas while taking a stroll during their Hawaiian honeymoon on Monday.
The 23-year-old singer-actress and producer Cokas, 42, were married on Saturday in Beverly Hills before heading to the tropical getaway of Oahu. Romance wasn't the only thing on McPhee's mind as she was spotted shopping at the local Gucci store – but they couple did stop for a post-purchase hug.
"[Nick] is the love of my life," McPhee gushed to PEOPLE about her wedding. "This is a once in a lifetime occasion and everything is just perfect."
