Kelly Rippa and Mark Consuelos
Twitter

We all know "till death do us part" in Hollywood means "till someone hotter comes my way" or "till your drug problem becomes unbearable" and sometimes "till I get to do a steamy scene with my co-star and realize I'm in love with them."

Fortunately, that's not the case for Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos, whose relationship has been growing strong every day for 17 years. Who would've thought that a love that started on set would become an incredible marriage, three kids, and a lifetime of memories?

Kelly took it to Twitter and shared a picture of her special day on her anniversary with the following message: "Omg. Here it is. 5/1/96" She also tweeted: I love you @MarkConsuelos happy anniversary! 17 years feels like 17 days."

It was just like any other day in 1996, when Kelly Ripa and boyfriend Mark Consuelos realized they had a couple days off from work, and they did what any two crazy-in-love kids would do... get hitched in Las Vegas. She wore a sparkly pink dress, and Consuelos dressed in a black dress shirt.

We're thinking maybe that's the key to a long lasting marriage in Hollywood: avoid the big reception, the celebrity guests and the fancy canapés and let the love flow without caring too much about the designer of your dress, the size of the rock you got on your finger or who's mad at you because you didn't ask them to be a bridesmaid.

Ripa opened up to People about her marriage and she said Mark "is the person I was meant to be with forever, and I think he feels the same way, we really do have quite an allegiance to one another. No matter what, we support each other in everything we do."
