Zooey Deschanel Got Married

Zooey Deschanel, the ‘(500) Days of Summer’ actress tied the knot with Death Cab for Cutie frontman Ben Gibbard at a private ceremony near Seattle, Washington, on Saturday, September 19.

Only close friends – including her ‘Your Highness’ co-stars James Franco and Natalie Portman – and family were present and the couple are thought to have now flown out to their secret honeymoon location.

The couple got engaged in December 2008 after dating for nearly a year, with a friend saying at the time, “Zooey was swept off her feet, and Ben is so excited.”

It was recently revealed the actress had been taking ballet classes to slim down before the forthcoming nuptials.

A source said, “Zooey has been taking classes at Pure Barre in Los Angeles to prepare for the wedding. She has been doing workouts which are based on ballet barre work back-to-back.

“She’ll take a class, wait 15 minutes, and then take another.”
