Lemon told People that the ceremony was a big deal, as they wanted the people closest to them to witness their commitment to each other and their love.
"A confirmation of our love and our commitment to each other," Lemon said. "It's also about celebrating our relationship, and our relationship with the people who are most important to us in our lives."
