Finally, wedding bells rang for “The Bachelorette” star Zak Waddell, as he married fiancée Elizabeth Coulon in a romantic wedding ceremony in Ireland on June 13. The newlyweds also recently celebrated their union with friends at a country club in Texas Saturday night.

“The Bachelorette” alum and his lovely wife invited their friends for a closer-to-home wedding party at the Las Colinas Country Club in Irving, Texas, with familiar faces such as Juan Pablo Galavis, Drew Kenney, Dan Cox and Michael Garofola attending the celebration. According to E!News, the party felt like a “full-on Bachelorette reunion!”

Garofola shared with E! that this was the first time they “were all together dressed in suits” since the end of bachelorette Desiree Hartsock’s season. "Outside of Chris Siegfried who married Desiree, Zak is the first one of us to tie the knot," said Garofola. "Zak and Elizabeth are both amazing people who complement each other so well. Over the past two years they've been a couple and it's been great to see them take on each other's best qualities. Now, they're expanding their horizons together."

Weddell popped the question late last year, when the couple were vacationing in Ireland, reported People on yesterday. After a romantic wedding ceremony which was also held in Ireland two weeks ago, Weddell shared a funny Instagram photo of himself with his new bride from the Gougane Barra Hotel, captioning it: "Married… Thanks for saying yes @e_coulon."

The photo was taken by fellow “Bachelorette” contestant Ben Scott, who also shared a double couple shot of the newlyweds and himself with his own fiancée Lindsay Higgins, writing, “It was a tear jerker having to give my boy @realzakwaddell away today but I know @e_coulon will take good care of him! So happy for the two of you! Gougane Barra was beautiful, Thanks for having us!”

Meanwhile, Zak Weddell and most of his Texas wedding party guests are alums from “The Bachelorette” Desiree Hartsock season. Weddell finished fourth on the ABC reality show, Garofola on fifth place, with Dan Cox landing the fifteenth slot. Hartsock eventually choose Chris Siegfried, and the two tied the knot on January 18, as reported by Us Weekly.
