Tony with his beautiful wife Jill

On November 6, 1998 after five years together, they did it in grand style--MGM Grand, that is, 29 floors above the Las Vegas strip in the hotel's high-roller suite.  Betting on love for the fifth time, Tony Curtis, 74, watched as horse trainer Jill Vanden Berg, 29, sparkling in a white headed dress and fox fur, made her first trip down the aisle via a spiral staircase.  The brief civil ceremony before 75 guests (including Curtis's actress daughters Jamie Lee and Kelly) was followed by a reception in the hotel's gourmet restaurant.  Three days later the pair jetted off for a three-week tour of London, Paris and Switzerland.  "He's hilarious; he surprises me a lot," said the bride afterward.  The groom returned the compliment.  "She is so sweet, besides being the most beautiful girl I've ever seen," he said, calling their 45-year age difference "not a problem for us.  I'm healthy and young, I mean, if John Glenn can go to the moon, I can go on a honeymoon."

"My life is so wonderful in so many ways," Curtis (with Vanden Berg} told PEOPLE, "All the ghosts are gone from my brain."
