Get Married Atlanta (2006-2007)

Get Married is an American television series appearing weekdays on Lifetime Television. The series is hosted by event planner and lifestyle expert Colin Cowie, and co-hosted by reality television star Deanna Pappas.

History[edit]

Get Married spawned from a local version in Atlanta called Get Married Atlanta, hosted by Renée Roberts and Jenn Hobby, which began airing in January 2006.[1][2] With the success of the local show, the series went national on April 15, 2007, as Get Married, when WE tv aired six weekly episodes.[3] Seeking a larger audience, show creator Stacie Francombe took the series to Lifetime Television for an October 1, 2007 premiere.[3][4]

Cast[edit]

For the short run on WE tv, the series was hosted by Renée Roberts and Jenn Hobby, and featured wedding expert Crys Stewart and correspondent Jessica Campbell.[3] The first season on Lifetime was hosted by David Tutera with correspondent Jessica Campbell, both of whom were replaced for the second season.[5] Deanna Pappas was hired by show creator Stacie Francombe after watching Pappas on the fourth season of The Bachelorette.[6] Show creator Stacie Francombe hosted the final season of Get Married.
