Exiting her car at the Hummingbird Nest Ranch, Kaley carefully made her way up the aisle in her fairytale dress to marry Ryan, who she has been dating for the past six months.

Following the ceremony, Kaley changed into a plunging red dress which was more in theme with the wedding's fire and ice theme.

The short-sleeved, above-the-knee minidress highlighted the bride's figure in all the right places, with Kaley finishing off her ensemble with a pair of black peep-toe heels.

Fire and ice parties combines elements of light and dark and require that ladies either wear white or red, while the guys can opt for red or white ties.

And Kaley and Ryan certainly went all out with the decorations for their wedding.

As well as fire-breathing entertainers, there were also characters on stilts who entertained the 150 friends and family invited to the ceremony.

I wish her the best in her marriage. She chose such a lovely venue and looked so beautiful. I guess it doesn't matter how long you know the guy, as long as you're happy.

God bless them. She seems the most genuine that Hollywood has to offer. For you naysayers, you are a bitter bunch.

It's up to them I guess, but I'm sure there was a fair few guest leaving that wedding with the same thoughts as everyone else...it's not going to last. Getting married after six months may seem romantic to them, but it really just shows how immature and silly they both are. Nobody knows anyone well enough to make the decision to spend the rest of their life with them after just six months. Why the big rush? Why not enjoy your time as boyfriend and girlfriend or even get engaged and have a long engagement? Just seems like a bad move.

At least she put them on her own account and didn't sell them to a magazine unlike some celebs! Congratulations to the happy couple!

Love the dress, refreshingly different, I dated my husband for 2 years he proposed and 6 months later we got married. I thought that was quick lol, but when you know you know. I would of married him after a month. Good men are hard to find and a good woman is even harder. When you find love grab it, follow your heart.
