Ellie Kemper marries

Bridesmaids star Ellie Kemper was a bride on Saturday (07Jul12) as she married her writer partner in New York.

The actress wed Michael Koman in a romantic ceremony in front of family and friends, including her The Office co-star Mindy Kaling.

Kaling revealed the news on her Twitter.com page on Saturday morning, writing in a post, "Today a member of the only fictional band I've ever been in is getting married. Not edhelms or bjnovak, the lovely Ellie Kemper. Xoxo."

Days before the ceremony, Kemper told E! News, "In real life, I've been a bridesmaid like a dozen times and after doing that movie I thought maybe I'll have some insight into wedding planning, but I took none of that insight. I'm as, panicky, as uptight as any bride ever was."

Kemper announced her engagement to Koman in December (11) and in May (12), host Ellen DeGeneres surprised the star with a stripper in a mock bachelorette party skit on her TV show.
