Scarlett Johansson and Colin Jost did not fret about the nitty gritty details of wedding planning such as seat placement and floral stands.
That is because the 35-year-old Black Widow actress and the 38-year-old SNL star took only ‘weeks’ to plan their surprise nuptials, according to a Wednesday report from People.
The site added that the two said ‘I do’ at her historic four-bedroom home located in the New York suburbs which she purchased for $4M in 2018.

Plans for their wedding day was thrown into chaos in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
‘This is not the time to get all your elderly, at-risk relatives together in one big group,’ Jost recently told Andy Cohen. ‘I don’t know when that moment will be.’
During his appearance on Ellen, the A Very Punchable Face author addressed rumors he is planning to leave SNL, insisting he doesn’t have a ‘timeline’ in mind, and for the moment, he’s just grateful to be working.
He said: ‘I don’t have a real timeline. I just mean, like I started to potentially psychologically brace for the concept of leaving, which I hadn’t really done. Certainly quarantine makes you appreciate having any job.’
Meanwhile, Colin previously admitted he was ‘so scared’ of marriage before getting engaged to the Hollywood actress.
He said: ‘I’m getting married and it’s such a crazy thing. I was so scared of marriage for so long because every time I talked to someone who just got married, or was about to get married, is like, ‘Oh my God, you got to do it … What could go wrong?’ Then you talk to someone who’s been married for five years, and they’re like, ‘Don’t rush into it … you have your whole life ahead of you.’
Past husbands: The Match Point actress has been married twice before: to Ryan Reynolds from 2008 until 2011 (he is now wed to Blake Lively). And to French journalist Romain Dauriac from 2014 until 2017. Together they share daughter Rose Dorothy Dauriac, aged six.
The wedding news comes on the same day that Scarlett appeared on the cover of Marie Claire magazine to promote Black Widow.
She stressed the importance of being able to ’empathize’ with her versatile characters.
Scarlett added: ‘I look for women who I feel I can relate to on some level, that I have empathy for. That’s a bit complicated, obviously, because you can have empathy for people in different ways, and for different reasons.
‘But if I can empathize with a character, no matter what their moral compass is, then that’s important to me.’
For the cover shoot, the blonde beauty stunned in a white off-shoulder dress, which was styled with a slick of deep red lipstick.
