While we've all heard the members of ZZ Top offer up evidence of the effect a sharply dressed man has on the average woman, we've always been more convinced that gals are far more likely to go crazy over a well-made, deeply discounted bedroom set.

Well, one lucky lady and her hubby-to-be won't have to make the agonizing choice between the two -- since Top guitarist Billy Gibbons has agreed to perform their wedding ceremony deep in the heart of Texas's most swinging Ikea store. The rocker, an ordained minister, will join the couple in holy matrimony this coming Thursday -- which, for the Hallmark-challenged, happens to be Valentine's Day -- at a Houston outpost of the meatball-vending furniture store.

Being closeted romantics ourselves, we'll wish Patricia Chalmers and Paul Burgess nothing but the best, and keep our fingers crossed that Gibbons dishes out a line or two of an appropriate Top tune -- maybe something like "she's got legs ... and she knows how to attach 'em to a cherry armoire."
