Congrats to Sherri Shepherd who wed her boo Lamar Sally this weekend in a fabulous wedding in Chicago. Two days prior, Sherri's co-worker Joy Behar married her long-time shack up mate Steve and left to go on a honeymoon, not attending Sherri's wedding that had been planned for months. (Blank Stare) That's some shady bullshit!
Again Congrats to Sherri and Lamar.. I'm sure they had an amazing wedding. Deets below:
Via People:
Co-host Sherri Shepherd and fiancé Lamar Sally tied the knot at the Fairmont Hotel in Chicago, her hometown, on Saturday.
Shepherd's eight bridesmaids included The View co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck, Niecy Nash and Community's Yvette Nicole Brown, and her 6-year-old son Jeffrey walked her down the aisle.
After using her wedding dress as her carry-on luggage on a flight from New York City to Chicago earlier in the week, Shepherd, 44, spent the days leading up to the wedding battling nerves and fitting in a few last-minute workouts at her hotel gym, according to her Twitter musings.
She even Tweeted nearly up until it was time to walk down the aisle, writing on Saturday afternoon, "Sitting in the room in my gown waiting for Sal& groomsmen to take their pics... can't let him see me b4 the wedding... but I'm bored as heck."
Right before the ceremony she Tweeted: "What happens when you are in your wedding dress and you have to tinkle? Uh-oh!"
The 30 Rock actress devoted months to trying to get in shape for her big day, which will air as a special on the Style network on Sept 13.
Shepherd, who calls her husband "Sal," had been prepping for a large ceremony since getting engaged in December.
"His family's from Detroit and mine are from Chicago, and we've got really close friends that we want to share the day with," she told PEOPLE as she planned her nuptials. "So, it's going to be pretty big."

I UNDERSTAND that folks at the wedding ceremony of ABC’S “The View” Sherri Shepherd were shocked that Shepherd’s other “View” co-hosts Whoopi Goldberg, Barbara Walters and Joy Behar were conspicuously absent. Shepherd married her sweetie, TV writer Lamar “Sal” Sally, at the Fairmont Hotel in Chi-Town on Saturday and looked absolutely gorgeous.
A wedding source said, “I assumed that they would be there as did all of the wedding party and guests, or they should have at least sent a video of congratulations as well as expressing why they regret they could not attend or to show they were at least there for Sal & Sherry in spirit.”
Short of being in the hospital , the Whoopster and Barbara-wa-wa should have been there. New York is only a short plane ride. And some insiders
are asking why did co-host Joy Behar, who has been saying for over 30 years that she and her longtime lover, Steve Janowitz, would never marry, decide to privately wed in New York the Thursday before Sherri’s wedding?
The bridal party, after their official rehearsal Friday night at the hotel, were seen celebrating with the couple over dinner at the downtown P.F. Chang’s. The group included co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck and husband, Tim Hasselbeck, former NFL star now with ESPN; actress Niecy (“Clean House”) Nash and new hubby, Jay Tucker; actress Yvette (“Community”) Nicole Brown and comedienne Kym Whitley. Chang’s president Lane Cardwell was in the house to greet them all. The eatery presented them with a special red velvet cake, the bride’s favorite. One of Sherri’s adoring fans happened to be celebrating her birthday at the eatery, and Sherri graciously took pictures and the fan told her how “skinny she looked.” Local music retailer George Daniels was among the many wedding guests and was seen dancing with Hasselbeck at the reception. (Were they steppin’?)
Before the wedding, the couple posed for pictures on top of a Chicago double decker tour bus. On Sunday morning, they hosted a breakfast/brunch for their wedding party and out-of-town guests and that evening, they dined alone at Gibsons Steakhouse.
ACTRESS KITA Williams of the popular VH-1 “T. O. Show” also flew in for the ceremony and excitedly told this reporter that the third season of her hit sports reality show, starring NFL superstar Terrell Owens, Monique Jackson and Williams, debuts Aug. 22, and they are currently filming in Florida.
SideNote: Barbara, Joy and Whoopi Goldberg ought to be ashamed. Not attending Sherri's wedding just shows no class. Joy getting married 2 days before Sherri was a deliberate and evil move. Folks seem to fail to realize that KARMA truly exists. Will be interesting to hear the "weak" excuses. There are no acceptable excuses besides illness or death. Shady and Gutter.. and that is why "The Talk" is "whooping" their asses! That is all.
