Gellar and Prinze Jr wed

Vampire slayer Sarah Michelle Gellar has married her Scooby-Doo co-star Freddie Prinze Jr in a secret ceremony.

The couple, who appeared together in this summer’s cinema comedy blockbuster Scooby-Doo, wed in Mexico on Sunday, their spokeswoman, Leslie Sloane, said today.

The bride wore a Vera Wang gown and the groom sported a custom-made linen suit, she said. A group of friends and family attended the ceremony, which was kept a closely guarded secret from the public.

Gellar, star of the TV’s Buffy the Vampire Slayer, announced the engagement at her 24th birthday party in April 2001.

The couple met on the set of the 1997 teen film I Know What You Did Last Summer.

They dated for nearly a year before becoming engaged and are signed to star in a sequel to the Scooby-Doo adaptation, in which Prinze, 26, played brawny, mystery-solver Fred and Gellar portrayed sweetheart sleuth Daphne.
