Alex Saxon, known for his role in “Nancy Drew,” and Hannah Marks, the director of “Turtles All the Way Down,” have officially become husband and wife. The couple exchanged vows in a charming ceremony at the Madonna Inn in San Luis Obispo, California. Notable author John Green, who penned the book adapted into the movie directed by Marks, was present among the esteemed guests at the wedding.

The picturesque wedding captured the love and joy shared between Saxon and Marks as they danced and kissed in a beautifully adorned white pickup truck with a “Just Married” banner. Saxon looked dashing in a classic black suit while Marks stunned in an embellished tulle dress with cascading ruffled tiers. The celebration was further elevated with a pink wedding cake adorned with graceful swan cake toppers.

The event also brought together a mini reunion from the cast and crew of “Turtles All the Way Down,” featuring Laura Quicksilver, executive producer of the 2024 movie, alongside author John Green and star Isabela Merced. The magical atmosphere of the wedding was described by actress Cassi Thomson as “an unforgettable weekend filled with enchantment and whimsy.”

Among the guests at the California nuptials were Violett Beane of “Countdown” fame, along with actresses Haley Ramm and Francesca Reale.

The couple has shared sweet moments together, as seen in Marks’ Instagram posts from September 2021 and July 2019 marking significant milestones in their relationship.

Collaborating on various projects over the years, the pair worked together on films such as the 2021 rom-com “Mark, Mary & Some Other People” and the 2018 movie “After Everything,” both of which were co-written and directed by Marks. The wedding was a culmination of their personal and professional journey, surrounded by friends and loved ones who celebrated their union with joy and love.
