It’s official! Glee star Dot-Marie Jones, and her long-time girlfriend Bridgett Casteen, have tied the knot!
Jones is best known for playing Coach Shannon Beiste on the popular fox television show. She proposed to Casteen, while at Disneyland during the Gay Days Anaheim weekend in October. Once Casteen had accepted Jones’ proposal, Casteen took to Twitter to share the news with all of her friends, family, and fans. She tweeted: “Thank you [Jones] for making me the happiest woman in the world.” “It’s the happiest day of my life. I never though I’d find somebody that is so loving and kind,” Jones said at the time.
On Saturday night, the couple invited their close friends and family over for a Christmas party. However, their guests were soon surprised to find out that they would actually be witnessing the couple’s wedding ceremony.

The morning of her surprise nuptials, Casteen posted a tweet on Twitter that read: “Oh happy day.” Casteen also changed her profile name from Casteen to Jones. Although this is the first marriage for Jones, 49, this is the second marriage for Casteen, 39, who has two children from her previous marriage.
