THE AMAZING WEDDING
"Hot 89.9 FM to host wedding for gay Amazing Race contestants in live on-air ceremony"

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
May 10, 2005

OTTAWA - On Wednesday June 1st, 2005, The New HOT 89.9 FM, in Ottawa,Canada will become the first station in the world to broadcast live - a wedding for a gay couple.

In an exciting announcement just after 8 a.m. EST, The New Hot 89.9 Morning HOT Tub with Mauler, Rush, Laura & Josie revealed that Lynn and Alex, the gay couple from this season's #1 reality show - The Amazing Race 7 ,will be flying to Ottawa for a June wedding ceremony.

Lynn, 30 and Alex, 22 from West Hollywood, California have been together for four years. Executive Assistants by trade, they signed on to The Amazing Race 7 as a means to test the strength and longevity of their relationship.

"From speaking with them it became obvious that their experience on The Amazing Race really solidified their commitment to each other, and their desire to get married," says Mauler, host of The New HOT 89.9 morning show. "Since current laws do not allow the union of gay couples in California, we are ecstatic that they have agreed to come to Ottawa to share with us this once in a lifetime experience."

The happy couple is set to arrive in Ottawa, Monday May 30th. Over the course of that week, Lynn and Alex will be treated to a bachelor party, their wedding rehearsal and tour around Canada's beautiful capital city. The live on-air wedding ceremony will be held at the Ottawa Congress Centre Wednesday June 1, and will be followed by a reception at Suite 34 that evening.

Newcap Radio's HOT 89.9 FM, known for their ground breaking and unique promotions, contests and events is set to conquer Ottawa once again. This will be the first 'live to air' gay wedding in the history of radio.

This wedding will blow everyone away," says Rob Mise, Operations Manager,HOT 89.9. FM. "Although this event will be one of the most challenging to put together in such a short time, we're pulling out all the stops to make this a wedding Lynn and Alex, their family, friends, and our listeners will never forget."

In a news conference in New York City today, Lynn and Alex will be announcing their 'Amazing Wedding' to the U.S. media.

OMGSH LYNN AND AELX ARE COMING TO MARRY IN MY CITY! IM GOIGN TO GO TOO! AHH THIS IS SOO COOL!!!!!!!!! THEY ARE TOURING OTTAWA! OMGSH! I BET YOU ALL WISHED YOU LIVED IN OTTAWA HUH?

Amazing race to the altar

Gay contestants on hit show to wed in Ottawa

By ANN MARIE McQUEEN, Ottawa Sun

THE AMAZING RACE 7 finalists Rob Mariano and Amber Brkich can do it anywhere, but rivals Lynn Warren and Alex Ali haven't been so lucky -- until now.

The popular gay couple eliminated from the CBS show weeks ago plan to marry in Ottawa June 1. Their ceremony will be broadcast live on-air during Hot 89.9's Morning Hot Tub.

The pair can't legally tie the knot in their home state of California, which is why they jumped at an all-expenses-paid invitation from the radio station to do it in gay-marriage-friendly Canada.

"Lynn and I have always, always thought about getting married. We've been together for five years and that's like 25 gay years," Ali, 22, told the Sun yesterday. "We were always planning on getting married, but in the States it's hard."

WEEK IN CAPITAL

They will spend a week in the capital beginning May 30. Hot 89.9 staff, including morning show hosts Mauler, Rush, Laura Mainella and Josie, are organizing the wedding.

Reached via cellphone on the streets of New York City, where he and Warren, 30, were to do press before last night's Race finale, Ali said the pair worried for a moment when the station called. "We didn't want to be a joke," he said.

They were quickly convinced by the morning crew, who have given them full approval on everything.

"It's fantastic, out of this world, way beyond what Lynn and I could have imagined," said Ali.

A minister will marry the pair during an 8 a.m. ceremony at the Ottawa Congress Centre, in front of about 20 family and friends. Byward Market bar Suite 34 will host their evening reception.

CTV, which airs Race in Canada, also plans to broadcast snippets of the ceremony. Brkich and Mariano's wedding will be broadcast on CBS May 24.
