Chris Noth, who played character Big in the "Sex and the City" television series and movies, secretly married his longtime girlfriend, Tara Lynn Wilson, in a ceremony in Hawaii Friday.

While Chris Noth's engagement to Tara Wilson wasn't secret- he popped the question in October of 2009- the ceremony was very private, taking place on Maui's Makena Beach last Friday. Nevertheless, photos of the wedding surface in the National Enquirer showing a double-breasted dark suit, a dark silver tie, and a white dress shirt. Wilson wore a sleeveless white dress with an embroidered lace veil for the occasion.

Despite only 10 guests attending the April 6 wedding, sources told the publication that the ceremony taking place at the oceanfront estate was very romantic.

"Chris and Tara married in the most romantic setting possible," said the unnamed source. "Tara was beaming, and Chris had a smile on his face the entire time."

After the ceremony, sources reported that the reception was held at nearby Gannon's restaurant, where guests dined on crab cake, macadamia-crusted island fish, braised short ribs, and spicy wasabi mashed potatoes.

Noth, 57, and Wilson, 30, first met in 2002 at The Cutting Room, a music venue in New York City that opened in 1999. While Wilson worked there, the two met and began dating.

Six years later, the two were still a couple, with Wilson giving birth to their son, Orion, in 2008. The 4-year-old served as the ring bearer for their wedding.

Noth, in addition to acting in shows like "Law and Order," "The Good Wife," and "Sex in the City," is also an entrepreneur along with his new wife. The couple owns Once Upon A Tea Cup, a restaurant "centered on the time-honored tradition of the tea party," according to the website. The couple's restaurant has several branches in Canada.
