Biggest Loser: Couples Couple Swap Weighty I-Dos

Amy and Marty Wolff aren't the only Big Losers to shed pounds and gain love.

The second cycle of The Biggest Loser: Couples, which aired earlier this year, is celebrating a success story in more ways than one.

The Red Team, also known as Nicole Brewer and Damien Gurganious, tied the knot Sunday, Aug. 16, at the Renaissance of Astoria in Queens, New York, E! News confirms.

By the time of their nuptials, the pair, who met three years ago in a water aerobics class, had lost a combined total of more than 200 pounds since the beginning of their weighty run on the NBC reality show. Fellow Losers Carla Triplett, Jerry and Estella Hayes and Adam and Stacey Capers watched as the trim, 38-year-old stylist walked down the aisle in a sweetheart strapless gown by Amsale.

"I just felt so hourglass in it," she tells E! News. "I felt like an absolute princess."

As the photos show, the groom, 32, looked dapper in a black tuxedo with a white vest and tie and a white calla lily boutonniere.

The newlyweds enjoyed their first dance as husband and wife to Robin Thicke's "Magic," because, the bride says, "Everything we've gone through has just been so magical."

Nicole admitted she treated herself to two pieces of cake—called "Biggest Loser's Prailine Bliss"—which was filled with drool-inducing bourbon candied yams and vanilla praline buttercream.

The couple will spend a few days swimming and running in Boston with friends next week before honeymooning for a week in Cape Cod. But that's not the end of their big plans.

"Now it's time for parenthood," the new Mrs. Gurganious says.
