While you weren't paying attention, Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux got married


Today in celebrity weddings: Jennifer Aniston and Justin Theroux are married. The couple's extended three-year engagement, which led to endless tabloid speculation about their relationship, reportedly culminated in a top-secret wedding at their Bel Air mansion on Wednesday, August 5. TMZ reports that Aniston attempted to keep the wedding a secret from paparazzi by framing it as a surprise birthday party for Theroux.
Though the wedding was largely kept under wraps, in a story that promises "Details!" Us Weekly provides the few they've been able to acquire: There were outdoor tables, a dance floor, and a cake topped with little Aniston/Theroux homunculi puppets (which are, quite frankly, kind of unsettling to look at).
Congrats to the happy couple.
