It's all love for young Earl Joseph Smith III. In June, he popped bottles and discarded his shirt for days after helping the Cavs win their first NBA championship, Cleveland first pro sports title in 52 years. Now, he's a married man (You might remember his unique proposal), making it two rings in one summer. That's not a bad haul for the New Jersey native. 

Never one to conform to conventional social norms, Mr. "When In Doubt Shoot the Ball," didn't immediately whisk his bride away to some exotic locale to celebrate their union. Instead, they kicked it at the mall the day after tying the knot. 

Check them out. 

 

 

We're sure the expensive vacation is coming, but these two look pleased as punch just enjoying each other's company wherever they are. Ain't love grand?
