Congrats are in order for Christina Hendricks!

The “Mad Men” star tied the knot with George Bianchini at the historic Napoleon House in New Orleans on Saturday, the actress confirmed to People.

Hendricks told the outlet that she and Bianchini – who first met on the set of her TV show “Good Girls” – chose the Big Easy as they share a special connection to the city.

“And then when we first started dating or meeting up, because we lived across the country from one another, it was the place in the middle. It just feels like our city together, even though we both loved it individually [first].”

The couple chose the historic Napoleon House as their venue for the romantic ceremony. The landmark was once home to New Orleans mayor Nicholas Girod, who offered Napoleon Bonaparte refuge during the French leader’s exile.

“It’s got this rustic Cuban, Spanish, European textured, high-low feeling to it, which I guess is how we feel about ourselves a little bit — a little high-low,” the “Drive” star, 48, shared.

“It’s got the most gorgeous walls with paint peeling off, and then you walk upstairs and there’s these grand dining rooms with the beautiful ceilings.”

According to People, the lovebirds invited 76 guests for a three-day wedding extravaganza, which kicked off with a welcome cocktail party followed by a ghost tour in the French Quarter.

“It was super exciting for us because I really think [Manson] is one of the most extraordinary writers and poets,” Hendricks revealed. “We just look at her and her marriage to her husband [record producer] Billy [Bush], and they are couple goals for us.”
