About 45 guests attended the wedding, which took place on a cliff overlooking the ocean. After the ceremony, "They walked through the city and townspeople were opening their windows and cheering for them," Gray's manager, Lisa Braudé, tells PeopleAfter a successful 1990s run with Color Me Badd, which scored hits with "I Wanna Sex You Up" and ""I Adore Mi Amor," Watters, 36, is now a songwriter and producer with partner Louis Biancaniello. He co-wrote Jessica Simpson's current single "A Public Affair" and has also worked with Celine Dion and Kelly Clarkson.
Since Gray's 2002 run on "American Idol," the 27-year-old has segued into acting with a recurring role on Boston Public in 2003, a starring role in the 2005 indie film "The Gospel" and a guest role as a waitress on NBC's Las Vegas in March. In 2004 she released the album, "The Dreamer," which features several songs co-written, produced and arranged by Watters.
The newlyweds are currently honeymooning in Italy.
