McCrory and Hill were dating for more than 10 years when the couple tied the knot on March 23, 2002, in Houston, Texas.

McCrory, unlike her husband, preferred life away from the spotlight, which led to the couple wanting a small, intimate wedding but then decided to throw a celebration in front of two hundred guests, according to Celeb Live Update.

Frank Beard, a fellow ZZ Top bandmate and friend, was Hill’s best man and Billy Gibbons, another band member, attended.

Beard’s wife, Debbie Meredith, was McCrory’s maid of honor.
