According to TMZ, the couple’s ceremony took place in the backyard of their Los Angeles home and was extremely intimate.

Earlier this month, the bride’s sister, Haylie Duff, told Us Weekly that their parents wouldn’t like it if her sister eloped. “She will have a wedding [because] she’s the good daughter that does like everything the way she’s supposed to,” the Real Girl’s Kitchen author, 34, told Us exclusively of Hilary, 32, on December 13, at the Disney on Ice Holiday Skating Party celebrating the arrival of Disney on Ice presents Mickey’s Search Party. “I’m not really helping her plan. … She’s planning her own little thing. We’re very different. She’s more like the traditional, like, do all the steps [one].”
