‘Mean Girls’ actor Jonathan Bennett and TV host Jaymes Vaughan are married! The two got married in front of their friends and family in an intimate ceremony in Mexico on Saturday after being engaged for over one year.
Confirming the wedding, Vaughan told PEOPLE, “When you’re part of the LGBTQ+ fam, not everything in the wedding space is for you yet. The whole purpose of our wedding is to come together and join the two of us together, join our families together and start a new family.”
“And all that, as we were going through this process, we realized that our wedding is also more than just about us. It’s about the entire community,” Bennett told the outlet.

The couple got engaged in November 2020.
While speaking to PEOPLE about the proposal, Vaughan had said, “So while he was in Canada filming The Christmas House for Hallmark, I took a melody that up until now had only be accompanied by chopsticks on my voice notes, and got together with my friend Tanzer, who happens to be a really talented producer and my favorite person to write songs with, and said ‘Let’s make this magical for Jonathan.'”
“From there we got a guitar, plucked it out, and just kept building and building and building until we ended up with this huge song that I knew was the one. It’s amazing what magic can happen with a friend and a guitar when you’re trying to create something to tell someone you want to spend forever with them. Thank God he was filming in Canada for six weeks, otherwise I don’t know how I would have pulled this off,” he had told the outlet.
