“We understand that they want you guys to get married on TV,” Kelly told Gerry and Theresa.
“Mark is an ordained minister and since we’re all gathered here today, we could just do a wedding right here,” she added.
The couple were shocked when the traditional “Wedding March” began to play.
Kelly gave the pair two rings and made sure they had a bouquet of flowers to go with the ceremony.

The “wedding” commenced with both Gerry and Theresa unable to stop laughing.
Mark got up to get things going, asking if Theresa planned to “cherish and honor Gerry in sickness and in health.”
Theresa agreed, and then Mark asked Gerry the same thing.
Gerry said he would “love Theresa now and forever.”

It was time for the pair to be pronounced husband and wife, but before Mark could continue, Theresa cut him off.
“No wait, we’re not ready!” she shouted, before it was time for her to kiss Gerry.
They ultimately decided to call off the “wedding” as Mark called the whole thiing a “rehearsal”.
Kelly advised them to “suck on their ring pops” instead of kissing, bringing the segment to a close.
SECOND THOUGHTS?
Meanwhile, those close to Theresa have begged her to make sure she gets a prenup.
During the Golden Bachelor finale, Gerry, 72, proposed to Theresa, 70, choosing to give his final rose to her instead of 64-year-old fitness instructor Leslie Fhima.
However, nearly immediately, Gerry’s thorns came out, as he was caught lying or contradicting certain aspects of his life.
Now, Theresa’s friends are warning the financial services professional to cover her assets.
“Theresa’s friends are stressing the importance of having a prenup,” a source told Life & Style. “He’s been caught lying, and people are telling Theresa to think twice.”
And it looks like Theresa may be having her own doubts and concerns as well.
“Now Gerry’s having to explain himself, and Theresa is questioning everything he’s ever said,” the source disclosed.
Fans online are in agreement on the prenup, as they expressed in the comments.
“I think she should. He’s clearly not someone that is totally honest,” one person reacted.
Another warned: “Be a smart lady and get a prenup or get out, once a liar always a liar.”
As a fourth slammed: “Gerry is gross. No prince charming. All decisions have consequences. Think long term and remove the rose-colored glasses.”
THEY DO?
Gerry and Theresa are set to be married on January 4, 2024, in a wedding that will be live-streamed on ABC.
The couple will honeymoon in Italy after the ceremony.
The wedding announcement comes after The Hollywood Reporter published an article exposing major “inconsistencies” between Gerry’s on-screen persona and his real-life self.
There’s a long list of contradictions, including it’s supposedly inaccurate that Gerry hasn’t dated in 45 years — despite what he told Entertainment Tonight.
Details about how the Golden Bachelor star pursued a woman one month after the death of his wife Toni, along with rumors that he used the same pickup lines on the women on the show as he did for women in real life surfaced in the exposé.
