Over the years, fans have watched more than one Hollywood couple fall apart. For some, it seems the walk down the aisle was the highlight of their time together.

While some had quickie marriages that were annulled just as quickly, others hosted lavish weddings only to get divorced shortly after. Here is a look at some of the shortest marriages in Hollywood history.

Nicolas Cage and Lisa Marie Presley

They held a lavish ceremony in Hawaii in August 2002. Cage filed for divorce in November later the same year and insisted that they “shouldn’t have been married in the first place.”
