Kelly Ripa reveals one regret from her $179 Las Vegas wedding to Mark Consuelos

Nearly 30 years after eloping in Las Vegas, Kelly Ripa is sharing the one thing she wishes she had done differently on her wedding day with Mark Consuelos.

During a recent episode of Live with Kelly and Mark, the longtime television host revealed that she still regrets not spending extra money on flowers for their budget-friendly 1996 ceremony.

Ripa joked that the absence of a bouquet left her unsure of what to do with her hands in the wedding photos, creating what she called an awkward-looking picture she rarely shares.

The couple, who met while working on All My Children, tied the knot at a Las Vegas chapel for just $179. Despite the missing flowers, both Ripa and Consuelos spoke fondly about the intimate ceremony, praising its simplicity and affordability.

Reflecting on their decision to elope, the pair said the no-fuss wedding allowed them to get married quickly and privately without the stress often associated with larger celebrations.

Consuelos even joked that inexpensive weddings seem to have a better track record when it comes to lasting marriages.

Now approaching three decades together, Ripa and Consuelos remain one of Hollywood's longest-lasting couples, frequently sharing humorous stories about their relationship and family life with fans.
