LISA Niemi, who was married to actor Patrick Swayze for 34 years until his death in 2009, has walked down the aisle again.

People magazine is reporting that the actor and dancer wed jeweller Albert DePrisco in Florida over the weekend.

Just days before the wedding, Niemi told People Magazine that she couldn’t wait to get married again. “What I most look forward to on my wedding day is walking up, standing at our altar, and looking into his most incredible, twinkling eyes,” she said. “I cannot think of a bigger treat than that.”

The couple was married in an intimate ceremony in front of 50 guests, with Niemi wearing an Oscar de la Renta dress.

The couple were serenaded with Haydn and Mozart by a string quartet put together by Niemi’s nephew, Will, and his wife Heidi, both concert violinists. “We wanted it fresh and happy,” Niemi told People.

At the reception, Niemi looked forward to celebrating with their guests.

“I have some hilarious friends. I’m sure there will be some fun toasts,” she said. “Later on we’ll dance to everything from Michael Buble and Steve Tyrell, to 70s classics, to current hits, with a big dash of romance thrown in.”

Niemi lost her husband Swayze to pancreatic cancer in September 2009. She and DePrisco met through mutual friends in 2012.
