On Saturday, piano man Billy Joel was in a marrying state of mind.

The New York Post reports that Joel and girlfriend Alexis Roderick, who in April announced she was pregnant, turned their Fourth of July party yesterday into a surprise wedding ceremony, presided over by Governor Andrew Cuomo. (LOL, can you imagine?)

Actor Kevin James was reportedly also in attendance at the small ceremony at Joel’s Mansion on Center Island in Oyster Bay.

This is Joel’s fourth marriage. He is 66. Roderick, a former Morgan Stanley staffer, is 33. They are expecting their first child later this summer.
