'Bachelor Pad 2' Winner Weds in Intimate Outdoor Ceremony
"Bachelor Pad 2" winner Michael Stagliano has finally found true love. He married Emily Tuchscherer in Chicago this weekend. The couple met two years ago on Memorial Day, making the timing even more perfect. According to Big City Bride, the couple exchanged vows in an outdoor ceremony in Chicago.
The wedding was attended by familiar "Bachelor" faces including Stagliano's brother Stephen and wife DeAnna Pappas. Kiptyn Locke and Tenley Molzahn also attended the nuptials and shared plenty of photos online.
"It's a beautiful, beautiful evening," Molzahn captioned a photo of the newlyweds. "These two were made for each other. Congratulations @emilytuch & @michaelstag #stagtuchwedding #sweetandfreelife."

Michael Stagliano was responsible for setting up his twin brother Stephen with DeAnna Pappas, who had her own season of "The Bachelorette." The two have been married since 2011 and are quite happy together. Pappas was rejected by Brad Womack during his first season on "The Bachelor." Later, Michael took it upon himself to set his brother up with the lady.
"They were giddy with excitement," a friend said of the 2011 nuptials. "She looked incredibly happy."
"This was the best day of my life," Michael tweeted early Sunday morning. "It was the best wedding I have ever been too [sic]. @emilytuch #stagtuchwedding."
The couple will now honeymoon in Fiji. Even though they chose to tweet and share photos of their wedding, the two decided to keep things rather low-key and now allow ABC to film their nuptials. They are one of the few couples from reality TV to actually make it down the aisle, and brother Stephen's marriage to Pappas is even more rare, given the history of "Bachelor" and "Bachelorette" relationships.
One of the last successful pairings was Ashley Hebert and J.P. Rosenbaum, who wed in 2012 in a very public ceremony officiated by none other than "Bachelor" and "Bachelorette" host Chris Harrison. The couple recently announced that they are expecting their first child, a boy, this fall.
