Patrick J. Adams and Troian Bellisario officially became husband and wife during a romantic three-day wedding celebration in December 2016. <p>Troian walked down the aisle in a gorgeous bohemian design by Cortana, which she accessorized with a headpiece by Amaroq, while her groom looked equally as dapper in a three-piece Ralph Lauren suit. </p> More than 200 guests watched the couple tie the knot at the Rancho Dos Pueblos in Goleta, Calif., before they danced the night away under the stars. <p>Here, Patrick and Troian share photos and reflections from their magical day exclusively with <em>Hello!</em></p> Photo: © Max Wanger
The couple's three-day wedding affair included camping! "It was important to us that it was an outdoor experience. I think having people come and be out of their comfort zone was what we always wanted. It would make the wedding even more powerful, because everyone would have the chance to get to know each other," Patrick told <em>Hello!</em> <p>To honour nature and a cause close to their hearts, Patrick and Troian asked guests to make a donation to the David Suzuki Foundation and SickKids Hospital in lieu of gifts.</p> Photo: © Max Wanger
The groom travelled from the campsite to the ceremony in a bus with his family and friends. His pals made sure to get him there on time – even when their bus got stuck. <p>Photo: © Max Wanger
When it came time to write their vows, Patrick says he and Troian "wrote them out together." He adds: "We knew that we didn’t want to just use conventional vows. As the day approached, we also took the time to write the things that we wanted to say to each other on the day. We had the two notebooks that we’d written in, and my father carried my book down the aisle and Troian’s mother carried hers." <p>Photo: © Max Wanger
The couple shared their first dance to Ryan Adams’ ‘Wonderwall.’ Patrick tells <em>Hello!</em> "It was electric. We love to dance. Everybody was itching to dance from the start of this wedding. The last song of the night was “All My Friends” by LCD Soundsystem. Troian and I were smiling and dancing together, then we noticed the entire crowd spinning around us in circles and screaming the words to our favourite song." <p>Photo: © Max Wanger
Patrick explained to <em>Hello!</em> the romantic meaning behind "Fort Day" - the theme of their wedding. "[After meeting] We began this inside joke about how wonderful it would be to build a pillow fort, a safe space where you could be yourself and have fun.” <p>In December 2009, he surprised his sweetheart with the first ever “Fort Day” – inviting her to spend the day in a pillow fort adorned with fairy lights – and they’ve kept that custom going ever since.</p> Photo: © Max Wanger

"In some ways, you think about what that moment will feel like your whole life. I felt really excited. We’ve been together for a long time, so this felt like a celebration of not just what was happening that day, but everything we’d accomplished together," reflects Patrick. <p>Photo: © Max Wanger
