Clint Eastwood's daughter Alison has married her longtime boyfriend Stacy Poitras over the weekend.

The legendary actor's daughter, also an actress, said tied the knot during a small ceremony in Calabasas, Calif., where the couple's family members attended.

"We are thrilled to be surrounded by our family for this very special day and appreciate their love and support as we begin our married life together," Eastwood and Poitras said in a statement to People magazine.

Among those present at the wedding was Eastwood's famous father, her mother Maggie, brothers Kyle and Scott Eastwood, sister Kathryn Eastwood, as well as Clint's wife Dina Eastwood and Poitras's brothers Mark, Matt and Bobby.

The small gathering of family and friends took place at the Saddlepeak Lodge in Calabasas, where Clint Eastwood lives with his family.

Eastwood wore a 1930s-inspired wedding dress by Les Habitudes at the Friday night nuptials, and Philip Press designed the couple's rings, according to People.

Oscar-winning actor Clint, 82, walked his daughter down the aisle during Friday's ceremony.

Following the "I do's," guests enjoyed salmon and elk.

Eastwood and Poitras of television's "Chainsaw Gang" announced their engagement last year.

"I feel like I am the luckiest guy in the world because Alison is truly an angel, we are both very happy," Poitras said after their engagement was revealed.

The artist designs sculptures out of chain saws, and met Eastwood through the "Chainsaw Gang" reality series.

Like her father, Eastwood is also a producer and director who has appeared in several nature documentaries. The 40-year-old bride has also launched the Eastwood Ranch Foundation, which raises funds and awareness for animals in need.

Alison is not the first child of Eastwood's to make headlines. The director's younger daughter Francesca was named Miss Golden Globe 2013 and wowed fans on the red carpet during the January event.
