It would've been the wedding of the year—or so he thought.

A Pennsylvania man accused of traveling cross-country with the aim of asking for Jennifer Aniston's hand in marriage has been ordered to permanently stay away from the He's Just Not That Into You star.

A Los Angeles judge granted a request Monday filed by Aniston's attorney for a three-year restraining order against 24-year-old Jason Peyton, who remains behind bars after he was busted last month loitering around the actress' abode.

Per Aniston's complaint, Peyton is an "obsessed, mentally ill and delusional stalker" who has a history of violence and drove to California "with a sharp object, a bag, a roll of duct tape and written messages," believing he's in a relationship with the thesp. Cops were alerted to him after his father tipped off LAPD.

Neither Peyton nor his attorney were at today's hearing, which was only attended by Aniston's counsel and a police detective who testified how the accused told him he wanted to marry her and be the father of her children.

The keepaway order bars Peyton from coming within 100 yards of Aniston's places of residence or business as well as those of her managers, agents and various employees.
