Wedding bells are ringing in Las Vegas. Lukas Gage and Chris Appleton confirmed that they got married on April 22 after just two months of publically dating and weeks of engagement speculation. The newlyweds shared footage from their Las Vegas ceremony on Instagram, which included the help of two special celebrity guests.

It’s not known exactly when Gage, an actor seen on hit series like Euphoria and The White Lotus, and Appleton, a celebrity hairstylist who works with the likes of Jennifer Lopez and Kim Kardashian, first met. But once they did, they moved quickly, going from Instagram-official to engaged and then married in the span of just two months.

The two initially tried to keep their relationship status vague while making public appearances and joint Instagram posts. But soon enough, they couldn’t hide how in love they truly were. “I feel very happy, very lucky and very much in love,” Gage said on TODAY in March to promote You Season 4, which he filmed in Appleton’s home country. “He’s a good-looking man. Something about being in London, I got a taste of the Brits and couldn’t help myself.”
