Ellie Kemper and longtime boyfriend Michael Koman tied the knot Saturday.

Ellie Kemper has finally made the crossover from bridesmaid to bride after she walked down the aisle Saturday.

"The Office" actress, 32, wed her longtime boyfriend Michael Koman in a New York City ceremony, her rep confirmed to People.

Kemper and Koman, a former writer for "Conan," were joined by a host of family and friends, including the actress' comedienne pals Kristen Wiig and Mindy Kaling.

"Today a member of the only fictional band I've ever been in is getting married," Kaling tweeted Saturday of her "Office" costar's nuptials. "Not @edhelms or @bjnovak, the lovely Ellie Kemper. Xoxo."

In planning for her wedding, Kemper admitted that she wasn't able to be as calm as she thought she'd be.

"In real life, I've been a bridesmaid like a dozen times and after doing that movie I thought maybe I'll have some insight into wedding planning, but I took none of that insight," she told E! News. "I'm as, panicky, as uptight as any bride ever was."

Koman, Kemper explained, would be in charge of planning their two-week honeymoon in France.

The happy couple first revealed their engagement on "Conan" back in December.

"My family likes him a lot," she told O'Brien of her fiance at the time. "THey've met him many times. My parents are very warm, welcoming people to begin with, but also, Michael's a delight."
