Ben Platt and Noah Galvin have tied the knot.

The actors, who have both played the lead in Dear Evan Hansen on Broadway, married on Sunday, Sept. 1, at Pioneer Works in Red Hook, Brooklyn, according to Vogue. The couple's celebration kicked on Friday night with a Shabbat welcome dinner at the Angel Orensanz Foundation on the Lower East Side.

“Since some of Ben’s family are observant Jews, we couldn’t get married until Sunday when Shabbat was over, so to keep the party going we had a bar hang with some games and Lombardi’s pizza on Saturday night at Cellar Dog in the West Village,” Galvin told Vogue.

On Sunday, the pair wed in a ceremony officiated by Platt’s longtime Rabbi, David Wolpe.

“Our greatest hope was to give everyone a joyful, low-stress weekend full of warmth and a window into our relationship and the life that we are building,” Platt told Vogue. “And we wanted the dancing to go off. We feel that all missions were accomplished!”

The ceremony concluded with a duet performance by their moms of a classic Jewish wedding song. “And then, we both stepped on glasses,” Galvin told the publication. “And they broke, thank god!”

Following the nuptials, guests celebrated at Sunny’s bar for the afterparty which included "Shake Shack and a Marie’s Crisis Café-inspired musical theatre singalong."

Platt told Vogue, “We were overwhelmed with love, sweaty, and sobbing most of the time. We took our coats off halfway through—we were emotionally overheated.”

In another post on his Instagram Story, Platt showed off his own rectangular-shaped engagement ring with a sapphire gem in the middle, which Galvin proposed with.

“He proposed back 💙,” Platt wrote over the photo of the sapphire ring on his left hand.

According to Vogue, the couple first crossed paths in the fall of 2014 when Galvin asked Platt to be a guest on a web series he was working on with mutual friends.

Galvin later replaced Platt as main character Evan Hansen in the Tony-winning musical Dear Evan Hansen in November, 2017. Three year slater, their friendship blossomed into a romance during the Covid-19 pandemic, as the pair began living together in Platt's childhood home and regularly posted about their #QuaranTunes dance parties on their Instagram pages.

Platt later told Kelly Clarkson that the COVID-19 pandemic brought things from "zero to 60" for them and they eventually started "living together with [his] parents in [his] childhood home and seeing each other all the time."
