Anna Paquin (aka Sookie Stackhouse), 28, and Stephen Moyer (aka Bill Compton), 40, exchanged their vows beneath a tent across the street from the beach. According to People: The actors wed Saturday evening at sunset, a source confirms to PEOPLE. Paquin, wearing a white halterneck gown and Neil Lane jewelry with her hair in an updo, and Moyer, clad in a dark suit, exchanged vows under a white tent at a beachside villa in Malibu.
“It was a beautiful evening to get married and the sunset was gorgeous. Anna and Stephen seemed very excited to celebrate their wedding day with their families and close friends,” the source tells PEOPLE.
Celebrity guests included True Blood creator Alan Ball, costars Ryan Kwanten, Sam Trammell, Rutina Wesley and Carrie Preston as well as actor Elijah Wood.
The good news comes after a year-long engagement for the stars of the hit HBO series. Moyer, 40, proposed with a vintage-style ring on the beach last August. Connecting over daily breakfasts at a West Hollywood cafe, they began dating a few months after filming first began in 2008 for HBO’s smash vampire series, now in its third season. On the show, Paquin (a 1994 Oscar-winner at age 11 for her role in The Piano) plays Sookie Stackhouse, the psychic, mortal lover to vampire Bill Compton (Moyer); their first kiss occurred onscreen.
