"Live tweeting from my wedding..." Ochocinco announced in his kickoff to constant updates of the ceremony on Twitter. "Should be a first I'm assuming, music is playing, can't see my guests right now but they're here."

Right before the vows, he tweeted about being a nervous groom. "I don't recall sending the butterflies in my stomach an invite ... and why am I shaking like I'm in Alaska." He added: "What if @EvelynLozada is a runaway bride when I get out there and I'm stuck looking good all by myself ... did I mention looking good?"

As the ceremony reached its most important moment, Ochocinco tweeted, "Here we go.... Proverbs 18:22... I love you guys... If I do it right the 1st time I won't have to do it again." Hours after the ceremony he gave an update on the entire wedding party: "Small issue, I'm the only person that didn't/doesn't drink alcohol n every 1 is wasted including my WIFE, can't relate 2 this s--t, now what?"
