Nita Strauss Gets Married
Strauss married her longtime boyfriend and manager, who also plays drums in her solo band. The two got engaged onstage on July 6 of last year at the record release party for Strauss sophomore album, The Call of the Void. That record featured a number of special guests, some of whom were present at the wedding, including Alice Cooper and Draiman.
"Happiest day ever," Strauss writes on social media, sharing a photo of her and Villalta walking in front of a gothic fence adorned by lit candles on the floor.
People covered the wedding, which was at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel in Los Angeles. Strauss described it to the outlet as "our dark, romantic heavy metal dream wedding."
