Chris Pratt has said he feels “blessed” after tying the knot with Katherine Schwarzenegger on what he described as the “best day of [their] lives”.

The celebrity couple said “I do” in front of a handful of family and friends on Saturday, including Pratt’s ex-wife Anna Faris and their six-year-old son Jack.

“Yesterday was the best day of our lives,” he wrote alongside a stunning shot of the pair wearing Armani as they walked hand-in-hand on their big day.

“We became husband and wife in front of God, our families and those we love. It was intimate, moving and emotional. We feel so blessed to begin this new chapter of our lives.

“We are so thankful to our families and our friends who stood with us and grateful to Mr. Giorgio Armani who created a once in a lifetime dress for Katherine to wear and for me, the perfect suit. This morning we feel nothing but blessed.”

The couple tied the knot at San Ysidro Ranch in Montecito, California, and are said to have spent 20 minutes on their vows during the “classic and romantic” ceremony.

A source told E! News: “She looked so excited to see Chris and had a huge smile on her face. Chris was in a dark suit, along with his son Jack who stayed close by his side.”

A string quartet reportedly played John Legends All of Me before the couple walked out to Louis Armstrong’s What a Wonderful World.

The source added: “After the ceremony, guests retreated back to the lawn for more cocktails while Chris and Katherine went to a private cottage for more photos and time together.”

Guests included Guardians of the Galaxy director James Gunn as well as Pratt’s Parks and Recreation co-star Rob Lowe.

Pratt and Schwarzenegger started dating last summer before announcing their engagement in January.

Faris was among the first to congratulate them, and even jokingly offered to officiate their nuptials, reminding Pratt she is an ordained minister.

Pratt and Faris were married for eight years before announcing their split in 2017. Faris went on to date Michael Barrett.

Schwarzenegger is the eldest daughter of actor-turned-politician Arnold Schwarzenegger and his ex-wife Maria Shriver.
