“Our best friend, Shawn Aly, was our officiant, which made the actual ceremony part so intimate and memorable because he was able to actually speak about seeing our relationship first hand and make it personal to us,” she shares.
“I remember wondering if I’d be too emotional to get through my vows, but in the actual moment I was feeling so much euphoria, I think I practically yelled them,” says Luddington.

Prior to the wedding, the actress said that “the thing that I always said to Matt is that I just wanted to see the ocean,” she told PEOPLE. “That was my one thing.”
Their wedding planner, Karen Waldron of Ampersand Entertainment, says “the couple wanted romantic elegance with lots of natural elements, set against crisp white walls mixed with wood tables, hanging rattan light fixtures, an abundance of white and green floral, that kept it beautifully classic and fresh.”
She adds that “touches of gold accents were mixed into the tables for just that splash of glam.”
