One Tree Hill’s Stephen Colletti Marries Alex Weaver in Civil Wedding Ceremony

Stephen Colletti has tied the knot!

The One Tree Hill alum, 39, announced his marriage to NASCAR host and reporter Alex Weaver in a joint post on Instagram on Friday, Oct. 3.

“Mr. & Mrs. 🤍,” Weaver captioned the two courthouse wedding photos that the newlyweds shared.

“It was a beautifully intimate day that was celebrated with both of our families by our side,” Colletti and Weaver tell PEOPLE.

The couple said “I do” in a civil ceremony. In the first photo, Colletti and Weaver smile as they walk hand-in-hand down some steps outside, still in their wedding attire. Weaver wore a long-sleeved white minidress featuring padded shoulders and pearly beads accenting the mock neckline and cuffs. Meanwhile, Colletti donned a dark suit.

The actor wrapped his arm around Weaver’s waist in the second photo, which was in black and white, as the bride held a bouquet of white calla lilies.

Several of the couple’s celebrity friends congratulated them in the comments section.

“So happy for you guys!! Congratulations 🤍🤍🤍,” wrote Lauren Conrad, Colletti’s former high school sweetheart whom he starred alongside in the MTV reality show Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County.

Actress Jana Kramer commented, “Ahhhhhhhhhh congrats!”

“Congratulations!!” added Lo Bosworth Natale.

Colletti and Weaver started dating in 2021. Two years later, Colletti popped the question in Rome.

Speaking exclusively to PEOPLE following their Italian engagement on Nov. 15, 2023, the couple revealed how Weaver was thrown off the scent of the proposal, which took place “exactly two years” after their very first date. 

“He gave no tells that that day was the big day,” Weaver said at the time. “In secret conversations with my mom, he was told to make sure I was dressed appropriately with my hair done and makeup on so Stephen suggested we take our ‘Christmas card photo’ as his sneaky way of getting me to dress nice.”

And the secretive planning paid off, as Weaver admitted she was “completely unaware of what was about to happen” when her now-husband got down on one knee in Rome’s Giardino degli Aranci park overlooking the capital.

“We arrived at the park, and I started taking photos of Rome’s skyline,” Weaver said. “Stephen, very cleverly, communicated with a local photographer he had hired to snap photos of the proposal using hand signals they had discussed over email. He reached into his backpack and pulled out a black ring box. I then caught on and was overwhelmed with emotions. He got down on one knee and opened the box with the most beautiful ring that he helped design with Ring Concierge.” 

At the time, Weaver told PEOPLE she and Colletti were “looking forward to future special memories with family and friends.”
