The Dancing With the Stars lovebirds tied the knot Saturday, July 8, at Oheka Castle in Long Island, New York.
Chmerkovskiy’s brother and fellow DWTS pro Val Chmerkovskiy served as best man. Other DWTS wedding guests included groomsman Tony Dovolani , bridesmaid Rumer Willis, Sharna Burgess, Jenna Johnson, Nyle DiMarco and Candace Cameron Bure — who all made sure to share snaps of the fairy tale ceremony and rocking reception on social media.
Murgatroyd came down the aisle on the arm of her father in a romantic ball gown with an off-the-shoulder fitted bodice and multi-tiered, full gathered skirt.
“I didn’t want a stark white dress,” Murgatroyd, 30, told PEOPLE of her outfit choice in the days leading up to the wedding. “I just love the old-fashioned feel of the ivory. Especially against the castle, I didn’t want stark white. I think it’s more sleek, in a way.”
Chmerkovskiy looked dashing in a white jacket and tie with black pants.




At the reception, Murgatroyd and Chmerkovskiy partied with their guests, with Murgatroyd linking up with her former DWTS partner DiMarco for a fun dance and Cameron Bure taking over the dance floor with Val.

Guests also posed in a photo booth, where Murgatroyd showed off her second gown of the evening: a sheer dress covered in feather details.
Before the big day, the couple and their guests celebrated with a lavish pre-wedding party on Friday.
The newlyweds got engaged in December 2015, a little more than a year before their son Shai was born.

Following the ceremony, the couple shared a kiss under a rainbow. DiMarco shared the romantic moment on his Instagram story, captioning the video, “Brb crying.”

However, Chmerkovskiy went all out to serenade his new bride. He sang as his talented pals performed a choreographed dance behind him.
