MEKHI PHILFER MARRIES LONGTIME GIRLFRIEND IN AN INTIMATE CEREMONY

“ER” actor Mekhi Phifer tied the knot with his longtime girlfriend Reshelet Barnes in an intimate Beverly Hills ceremony attended by family and close friends on Sunday (Mar 31).
 About 100 friends and family members attended, including Phifer's son, who walked down the aisle with their Chihuahua.

Phifer entered to Stevie Wonder's "Ribbon in the Sky," according to E! News. The 15-minute ceremony featured the happy couple in dashing ivory.  Held on an outdoor terrace, Mekhi put on a dapper showing in a three piece suit which was made up of a silk tie and waistcoat.

And Reshelet stunned in a strapless floor length fishtail gown as she wore part of her hair up as the back section cascaded down her shoulders in loose curls.

"When she made her entrance into the courtyard, Mekhi was completely overcome with emotion and you could tell she took his breath away," an eyewitness source told E! News. "He had to wipe tears from his eyes for several minutes."

To top off what already sounds like a wonderful event, none other than TV's Judge Greg Mathis officiated the ceremony.

Phifer, whose breakthrough roles include Spike Lee's "Clockers" and "I Still Know What You Did Last Summer," has two sons. The first, Omikaye, was born in 1999 to "Soul Food" actress Malinda Williams, whom Phifer divorced in 2003 after four years of marriage.

He had his second son, Mekhi Thira Phifer Jr., with fiancee Oni Souratha in 2007.

Phifer starred as Dr. Greg Pratt on "ER" from 2002 until 2008. He saw a successful slate of films throughout the 2000s, including "O," "8 Mile" and "Honey." He was also a regular on the Fox crime drama "Lie To Me."
