The Sex and the City star Nixon, 46 and Marinoni, 45, began their relationship in 2004 but said they would wait to marry until same-sex marriage became legal in their home state of New York, which happened in the state in the summer of 2011. Both outspoken marriage activists, the couple became engaged at a same-sex marriage rally in New York three years ago. 

Nixon wore a Carolina Herrera dress for her wedding, her rep told People, but did not offer further details.

Marinoni gave birth to their son last year while Nixon has two other children with her former partner.
