Lauren Conrad and William Tell were married on Saturday in Santa Ynez, California.

“What a perfect way to start our lives together; surrounded by the people we love most,” the couple told Us Weekly in a statement.

Before the big day arrived on Saturday, Conrad was busy as a bee preparing for her wedding. Several weeks ago, The Hills alum discussed her bridesmaids dresses with Martha Stewart Weddings.

“I sent them all the different shapes and let them pick from two colors,” she said. “I don’t mind if there are a few girls in the same dress, or if people are all in different ones. It’s too difficult to take a group of girls and put them in the same color and silhouette; everyone has their own style… They’re all wearing the same two colors, so it’s all the same color scheme. I don’t think it needs to look too cohesive. They’re all individuals, so it’s nice that it doesn’t look too uniform.

Conrad, 28, and her 34-year-old new husband, a USC law student graduate and former Something Corporate rocker, became engaged in October 2013.

“I am beyond thrilled,” she gushed on her blog, alongside a snapshot of the gorgeous ring.

The couple met through friends, and Conrad told Allure magazine in 2012 that she wasn’t all that hopeful before that first Valentine’s Day blind date.

“I met my boyfriend on a setup,” she said. “I did not go with high hopes, though. What was nice about us is we both went in with preconceptions, but they were quickly broken.

“You don’t want a slob, but you don’t want a guy who’s constantly borrowing your tweezers…” she said while reflecting on her dating fiascos. “The last year and a half, I was dating a lot, and it’s slim pickings.”

In June, Lauren’s friends, including her former MTV co-star Lo Bosworth, threw the Laguna Beach alum a bachelorette getaway to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. The girls had fun playing naughty by documenting their trip with the hashtag #donttellmrtell. They also wore fake tattoos that read, “I belong with Lauren’s Bachelorette party. If I’m Lost. Please Buy Me A Drink.”

Two months later, the ladies celebrated with a peach-and-pink-themed bridal shower at Conrad’s house over Labor Day weekend.

“Thank you to my amazing friends and family for the best shower ever! #tellmeyouloveme,” Lauren posted on Instagram, along with a few photos.
