They're married! On April 13, Dancing with the Stars‘ Val Chmerkovskiy and Jenna Johnson tied the knot in a romantic ceremony overlooking the ocean at the Terranea Resort in Rancho Palo Verdes, California.

The couple, who got engaged in June 2018, said their “I do’s” in front of 200 of their closest friends and family, underneath a beautiful chuppah decorated with tibet roses, ranunculus, astilbe, lisianthus, garden roses and peonies all in whites and ivories.

As she walked down the aisle to a string quartet, Johnson donned a classic Vera Wang gown with sheer long sleeves and a slight mermaid silhouette.

After Johnson said “I do” to her new husband, she changed into a timeless white cap-sleeve dress designed by Tony Ward for Kleinfeld Bridal featuring an intricately embellished bodice and tulle skirt.

In the Details

In June 2018, Chmerkovskiy proposed to Johnson in Venice, Italy, where he got down on one knee and popped the question with a diamond sparkler. Chmerkovskiy previously worked with Jacob Arabo of Jacob & Co to design Johnson’s rectangular cushion-cut diamond ring and secretly kept it in his backpack during the trip so Johnson couldn’t find it.

And there was more cake: Vanilla Bake Shop in Santa Monica, California, created a dramatic five-tier wedding cake that featured handmade sugar rosettes, gold shimmer and a hand painted gold monogram that matched the dance floor. (Chmerkovskiy even had a custom flavor called “Milk Chocolate Hazelnut” with Valrhona chocolate pearls and yellow butter cake that was inspired by his love of Nutella.)

“All I wanted to do was slow dance with my husband,” Johnson told PEOPLE of the couple's low-key first dance to "La Vie en Rose." “I’m sure many people expected a produced dance, but we wanted to keep it genuine and real.”
