According to E! online, Elton John performed at the reception while director and produce Pam Fryman officiated the wedding. Both grooms reportedly wore custom Tom Ford tuxedos.

In 2011, Harris told Out magazine he's been wanting to call Burtka his husband for a long time: "I've been saying 'better half' for as long as I've been able to. I think it's a little self-deprecating and clearly defines that we're in a relationship, but it would be nice to say 'my husband.'" Now the two legally can.
