LOS ANGELES, Calif. --
After getting Mariah Carey a 17-carat engagement ring, Nick Cannon was hard pressed to top himself, but a surprise post-wedding theme park party delighted his new wife.
Nick rented out Six Flags Magic Mountain in Valencia, CA for a lavish party catering to 100 of their family and friends, which included Cannon’s mother, brother and manager Michael Golman, People reported.
The cost of taking over the park for the evening reportedly runs in the six figures.
“This is wonderful,” Carey told Magic Mountain employees as she entered the park. “The best surprise ever!”
After having a glass of Chardonnay, the happy couple reportedly took a ride on the roller coaster Tatsu, which has five inversions and zooms along at 62 miles per hour.
“When they got off the ride, Mariah wanted gum so Nick unwrapped a piece and fed it to her,” a guest told People. “He is head over heels.”
Next up, the couple enjoyed the park’s carnival games, where they lovingly shot hoops together.
“They were so affectionate,” a guest told the mag. “It was like watching two teenagers in love.
Nick made sure the park was transformed with touches of Mariah. There were lavender and pink balloons everywhere, candlelit tables and faux butterflies in vases and hand painted on cupcakes.
A wood sign in front of the carousel read “Nick and Mariah – A Love Story.”
