For their big day, the bride wore a wedding gown she custom designed with stylist Shany Lasry that was made of a clean chiffon fabric with an Italian crepe corset. The groom, meanwhile, donned a custom linen suit. The couple’s guest list included Lavi’s Lucifer co-stars, including Tom Ellis, Aimee Garcia, Rachael Harris, DB Woodside, and more.
