McKenzie and Baccarin chose to go the discreet route for their wedding. Check out some advantages to having a low-key celebration:

1. It’s private: At the end of the day, you and your partner’s wedding celebration should come down to the fact that you love one another. By having a surprise wedding celebration, you’re only inviting the people you two truly want to share this special occasion with, therefore making it a much more private event.
