Patrick Dempsey
“Grey’s Anatomy” star McDreamy, aka Patrick Dempsey, met his wife Jillian Fink when he scheduled an appointment at her salon with her. Apparently the hair stylist didn’t believe it was the real Dempsey until he walked in the door.
The two were immediately attracted to each other, Dempsey says, but they waited three years before going on a date because they were both in other relationships.
Dempsey still makes regular appointments with his wife at the salon. “It’s like our date night when we work together because we can talk and don’t have our three kids around.”
Eric Bana
Rebecca Gleeson was a publicist for an Australian TV network (and daughter to the country’s chief justice) when she first started dating “Star Trek” and “Munich” star Eric Bana.
The two met in 1995 and married just two years later. Bana proposed while on a trip he won for being crowned “Bachelor of the Year” in Cleo Magazine.
Appropriate?
For 15 years, the couple (who have two kids) has made each other laugh all day. “And I don’t mean chuckle – I can make her really laugh,” Bana says.
Reese Witherspoon
After the end of her marriage to actor Ryan Philippe, Reese Witherspoon tested out relationships with other celebrities until she found someone in the non-famous Hollywood pool.
Talent agent Jim Toth met Witherspoon because his drunken friend at a party made an ass out of himself with the starlet. Now the two are happily married.
Witherspoon told Elle Magazine that she never thought she’d get married again until Jim came along and gave her something she’d never had before:
“Jim said, ‘I’m gonna show you every day what a good partner is, what a good person is. I’m going to take care of you. I’m gonna do this so much that you’re gonna get used to it.’
Tina Fey
The comic genius behind “30 Rock” met composer Jeff Richmond while the two were trying to make a name for themselves in Chicago’s Second City.

They now have two daughters and have been married for 11 years.
Richmond has occasionally acted in bit roles but he now composes the score for Fey’s own TV creation, “30 Rock.”
Vince Vaughn
After dating Jennifer Aniston during the shooting of their film “The Break-Up” Vince Vaughn and Aniston did just that. Vaughn then moved on to Canadian real estate agent Kyla Weber and married her in 2010.

Conan O’Brien
Funnyman Conan O’Brien met his wife Liza Powel in 2000 when he was still killing it on “Late Night.” Powel was working as a copywriter at Foote, Cone & Belding and appeared in a skit about the ad agency.
Since then, the couple got married in 2002 and had two children. Powel has told People Magazine that O’Brien is a great father and actually quite the “softie.”
Ellen Pompeo
“Grey’s Anatomy” star Ellen Pompeo didn’t go the Hollywood acting route to find love but she did pick someone from another artistic industry. Music producer Chris Ivery and Pompeo actually met at grocery store in L.A.
In the words of all the cast members on “Grey’s Anatomy”: Seriously.
The couple married four years later and now have a daughter together. Pompeo told People she loved having someone to share everything with. Her and Ivery, she says, have a “strong bond … He’s just a real companion.”

The couple married three years later and now have five kids.
Elizabeth Banks
“The Hunger Games” star met her husband, sportswriter and producer Max Handelman, on her first day of college at University of Pennsylvania in 1992.
The two waited to get married until 2003 and welcomed a child via surrogate in 2011. During an interview about their wedding in InStyle, Banks talked about how Handelman proposed unexpectedly after 10 years, “He said that after 10 years, he owed it to me to completely surprise me.”
The couple used letters they wrote each other during their first year of dating as their vows.
