LOS ANGELES, CALIF. -- CaptionA.J. McLean married long-time girlfriend Rochelle DeAnna Karidis on Saturday, as per the several reports.

The Backstreet Boy, 33, and his bride tied the knot under a shelter at the Beverly Hills Hotel, in a service managed by celebrity photographer Tyler Shields, according to JustJared.com.

The couple, who got engaged in January 2010, said their pledges under a gazebo embroidered with white hydrangeas, according to People, while guests were delimited by glowing chandeliers.

Surrounded by family and friends – together with fellow BSB’ers Kevin Richardson, Howie Dorough, Nick Carter and Brian Littrell, as well as comedienne Kathy Griffin and New Kids on the Block’s Joey McIntrye – the bride wore a gown by Vera Wang and walked down the aisle to Guns N’ Roses’ power ballad, “November Rain,” Us Weekly reports.

The singer took to Twitter to express his wedding day jitters on Friday, Tweeting, “Wedding is tomorrow, Ro and I could barely sleep last night, I think we’re a little excited!

“I’m so nervous and excited for tomorrow,” he added.

As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, A.J. proposed to Rochelle nearly two years ago at his Las Vegas solo concert, where the singer took the stage on the eve of his 32nd birthday, highlighted his lucky lady and exploded the question to the happiness of the listeners.
