Mack, Bono Wed In Asheville, NC

ASHEVILLE, NC (CBS4) ― U.S. Representative Connie Mack from Florida tied the knot over the weekend with girlfriend Mary Bono.

Bono, who was married to late singer-turned-politician Sonny Bono, was elected in a special session to his seat in Congress after his death. Bono's sister, Katherine Whitaker, said the couple was married Saturday in a private ceremony in Asheville, North Carolina.

"It was fantastic," Whitaker said. "It was a very quiet ceremony."

Mack and Bono had been dating for two years.

Bono's chief of staff, Frank Cullen Jr., said Mack proposed in late August while the couple was on a camping trip in Arches National Park in Utah.

The 40-year-old Mack, who is divorced, is the son of the Florida senator of the same name and great-grandson of Hall of Fame baseball manager Connie Mack.
