George Takei (Star Trek) Marries Longtime Partner, Brad Attman

On Sunday Sept. 14, 2008, George Takei, best known as Sulu on Star Trek, and his partner of 21 years, Brad Attman, got married. The couple exchanged turquoise wedding bands during the ceremony at the Democracy Forum of the Japanese American National Museum in L.A. The ceremony was officiated by a Buddhist priest in front of 200 guests.

Takei's Star Trek co-stars were a part of the ceremony as well. Nichelle Nichols (Uhura) as the best lady and Walter Koenig (Chekhov) as the best man. Some other guests were, U.S. Senator Daniel K. Inouye of Hawaii, L.A. Councilmember Jan Perry and humanitarian Dr. Sybil Jordan Hampton.

After the vows, Takei said, "May equality live long and prosper!"

The 71-year-old Takei and the 54-year-old Attman plan to honeymoon in Argentina and Peru.

21 years together, that is much longer than most of the marriages today. I'm sure they are happier now that gay marriage is legalized. Congrats you two!!
