Mena Suvari married her boyfriend of three years in Italy over the weekend.

The 'American Beauty' and 'American Pie' actress tied the knot in the Vatican to her 25-year old concert producer partner Simone Sestito.

The pair became engaged in 2008 after meeting at the Toronto Film Festival the previous year.

For the ceremony the couple decided on a private chapel within the Vatican City for their ceremony as most of the groom's family live around Rome. The after-party was at Castello Odescalchi, in Bracciano.

A guest told People.com: "The ceremony was truly unique and Mena looked breathtaking, They are very much in love."

Sestito told People magazine in 2008: "We just understood each other. She's very caring and understanding. There was a connection."

Suvari has been married before - she wed the 18-years-older cinematographer Robert Brinkmann from 2000 to 2006.

Ironically, the film actress can next be seen in a comedy entitled 'You May Not Kiss The Bride', about a photographer who is forced into marrying a woman he doesn't know who then gets kidnapped.
