One of our favorite comedians from Saturday Night Live, Andy Samberg is officially off the market. Us Weekly is reporting that Samberg is engaged to his girlfriend of five years, singer-songwriter Joanna Newsom.

According to a friend of the couple, 34-year-old Samberg had a crush on 31-year-old Newsom before they met and would attend her shows — awww!

Now for two important questions about their wedding — will Lonely Island perform at the reception? And will the wedding take place “on a boat”? If so, can we come? Congratulations Andy and Joanna!

We could see Kate embracing a pretty, Bohemian wedding style. A small, outdoor garden wedding with a one-of-a-kind flowy white dress created by her favorite designer, Valentino, would be appropriate and beautiful!
