It was wedding bells today for Nick Lachey and Vanessa Minnillo.

The couple tied the knot in a small ceremony on top of a cliff on the gorgeous and secluded Necker Island, owned by Sir Richard Branson.

Minnillo, who donned a two piece Monique Lhuillier wedding dress (Lachey wore a Dolce & Gabbana suit) said guests were in the dark about what was really going on.

“Nobody knew where they were going,” Minnillo revealed.

“Our wedding invitations were in the form of a plane ticket,” Lachey added. “We told them they were going away and the attire was ‘island chic.’ It was all very vague.”

While Lachey, 37, and Minnillo, 30, exchanged vows, a TLC camera crew was on hand to document the nuptials for an upcoming special.

The singer said he and Vanessa thought long and hard before saying yes to the cameras at their wedding.

“We kind of wrestled with that for a while, for obvious reasons,” Lachey said. “Having done reality TV in the past, I didn’t necessarily want to jump right back into it without having thought it through to great length, and we did.”

Lachey is no stranger to reality TV programming. He and his first wife, Jessica Simpson, were turned into huge stars with their MTV show Newlyweds: Nick and Jessica. Minnillo hosted the Ashton Kutcher-produced reality competition True Beauty.

Lachey and Minnillo began dating in 2006 and became engaged in November of 2010.
