Bonnie Somerville, 'Friends' Actress Marries Dave McClain, believes in ‘True Love Now’

Bonnie Somerville exchanges vow.

On April 8 at the Hummingbird Nest Ranch in California's Santa Susana Mountains, the 49-year-old actress, who has been on Blue Bloods, The O.C., NYPD Blue, and Friends, said "I do" to fiancé Dave McClain.

"I never believed in soulmates until I met Dave," Somerville told PEOPLE. "I love everything about him."

To the soundtrack of their favourite movie, Out of Africa, the bride's mother Maureen led the bride down the aisle.

"She raised me alone so she's my best friend and both mom and dad to me," says Somerville. "She always jokes 'Now I can die in peace!' She loves Dave and they have an amazing bond. She calls him her son."

Bonnie Somerville wanted an  'European outdoor vibe'

Somerville said that while looking for a location for the couple's wedding, she realised the property was ideal right away.

"I wanted a rustic, farmhouse European outdoor vibe," she says.

"It's so beautiful with the vineyard and the mountains in the distance. It's just stunning."

His two daughters accompanied him down the aisle as they exchanged personal vows during the wedding ceremony, which was handled by McClain's sister.

Somerville, who had two "bridesmen" and eight bridesmaids, adds, "It's nontraditional". His best man was a 30-year buddy of McClain's.

Bonnie Somerville 'wanted really good food'

Following the wedding, guests took part in a cocktail hour with passing appetisers such chicken satay skewers, pigs in a blanket, small poke bowls, and tomato soup cups with grilled cheese sandwiches. Filet mignon, halibut with pistachio crust, and vegetable risotto were served for the sit-down meal.

"We wanted really good food," says Somerville.

"It was my biggest concern besides music and the venue!" Following dinner, a dessert station with Coolhaus ice cream sandwiches, cookies and brownies was served.
