We\u2019ve been together 10 years,&#8221; Sherman, 64, told ABC News. \u201cWe both agreed we didn\u2019t want the traditional bride cuts the cake and first dance stuff. We also didn\u2019t want to taint what we had in the past, and we wanted something for us and the kids.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 14pt\">They held the July 30 wedding at North Shore Music Theatre in Beverly, Massachusetts, on the last evening the Disney-themed play was being performed. Sherman and Goldman wed in a traditional Jewish ceremony before attending the &#8220;Beauty and the Beast&#8221; matinee, enjoyed hors d&#8217;oeuvres with their family at intermission and then celebrated with desserts and drinks once the show was over.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 14pt\">&#8220;We knew we wanted to do something different,&#8221; said Sherman. &#8220;That\u2019s why we did it this way.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 14pt\">The wedding decor included roses, guests dressed in yellow and blue and the groom&#8217;s surprise: his rented Beast costume.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 14pt\">&#8220;After we took the formal photos, I snuck away and changed,&#8221; Goldman, 70, said. &#8220;When I came out, I was dressed as the Beast was in the play, in the big blue coat with a puffy shirt. Everybody just laughed because they did not expect that. My son looked at me and rolled his eyes and said, \u2018Only you would do this.\u2019&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 14pt\">Goldman, a funeral director, is obviously used to directing things, his new wife said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span style=\"color: #000000;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;font-size: 14pt\">&#8220;He always says, &#8216;The first letters in funeral are f-u-n,'&#8221; she said with a laugh. &#8220;We knew we wanted to do something memorable that was casual and the kids could make fun of us.
