Tom Hanks Will Walk Meg Ryan Down The Aisle At Wedding With John Mellencamp
Lovebirds Meg Ryan and John Mellencamp are finally making wedding plans, and RadarOnline.com has learned exclusively her Sleepless in Seattle pal Tom Hanks will give her away!
"Tom is thrilled to be walking Meg down the aisle," an insider told RadarOnline.com. "He thinks of her as family and has a real soft spot for John, too!"

"Tom's filling that void, almost like an older brother," the insider revealed. "Meg adores Tom and had no hesitation asking him.
