\n Chris Harrison and Lauren Zima are married.<\/p>\n

\n The former host of The Bachelor <\/em>and its spinoffs, including The Bachelorette <\/em>and Bachelor in Paradise, <\/em>wed the producer on Oct. 14 in Napa Valley, Calif., and again on Nov. 4 in Austin, Texas, where the couple live, People<\/em> reported<\/a>. They couple also each posted<\/a> a photo on Instagram. \u201cWe\u2019re married \u2764\ufe0f Let the journey begin \u2026,\u201d Zima wrote in her post.<\/p>\n

\n They described the Napa Valley nuptials as an \u201cemotional\u201d and \u201cjubilant\u201d ceremony that was more intimate, with just family and their closest friends, while the Austin celebration was more of a \u201cblowout bash\u201d where they expanded the guest list to include several Bachelor<\/em> franchise alums, including Wells Adams and Sarah Hyland, Ben and Jessica Higgins, Arie Luyendyk Jr. and Lauren Burnham, Sean and Catherine Lowe, JoJo Fletcher, Trista Sutter, Colton Underwood and Jordan C. Brown, Bob Guiney and Jessica Canyon.<\/p>\n

\n The group got together \u201creminisce\u201d the night before the ceremony, Harrison told People<\/em>. He also joked that at the end of the night, he was \u201cgoing to tell 10 of them that they will be going home broken-hearted and can\u2019t come to the wedding.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n Signature cocktails at the event bore names with a winking nod to Harrison\u2019s former gig, such as \u201cThe Final Rose\u201d and \u201cThe Bachelor No More.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n \u201cThe running joke was whether we could find a way for Chris to officiate his own wedding, since he has so much experience,\u201d Zima told People<\/em> of Harrison, who has officiated several Bachelor<\/em> franchise weddings. \u201cBut instead we had Mike Levitt, Chris\u2019 longtime friend.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n

\n Meanwhile, Napa Valley has special meaning for the couple as it\u2019s where Harrison proposed to Zima in 2021.<\/p>\n

\n The night before the Oct. 14 ceremony, former Bachelor Andrew Firestone emceed a welcome party at a local winery. During the reception the next night, Harrison\u2019s daughter Taylor serenaded the couple with a cover of Leon Bridges\u2019 \u201cBeyond,\u201d one of their favorite songs.<\/p>\n

\n \u201cAs we thought about what we wanted to do, we wanted to make sure we had those emotional, intimate moments with our family and our very closest friends,\u201d Zima told People<\/em> of why they decided to have two ceremonies. \u201cI\u2019ve just heard a lot of people say that on your wedding day, you don\u2019t get the time with everybody, so we decided to do a really small, intimate ceremony, with the people who have really been there with us since the beginning of our relationship.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n The couple first met when Zuma, a former correspondent for Entertainment Tonight,<\/em> interviewed him in 2016. She interviewed him several more times before they started dating.<\/p>\n

\n Harrison \u201cis my teammate and supports me in everything,\u201d Zima said, while Harrison described Zima \u201cnot just brilliant, but she is kind and she will love others to exhaustion.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n Harrison was previously married to Gwen Harrison. They announced their split in 2012, after 18 years of marriage.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
