NEW YORK, Oct. 4 (UPI) -- Actor Peter Scolari told UsMagazine.com Friday he married actress Tracy Shayne, his girlfriend of more than eight years, in New York June 21.

He said they tied the knot in a friend's apartment after which Scolari's co-stars from the late Nora Ephron's play "Lucky Guy" threw them a surprise party at the Glass Tavern restaurant in Manhattan.

"Everyone in the cast gave so many amazing toasts. I honestly wasn't prepared for that to happen, but it was really all very sweet," the actor told the magazine. "It may sound cliche, but there is no surprise that Tom [Hanks'] toast was full of the nicest things that anyone's ever said. I thought it was going to be something of a roast but it wasn't that at all. I sent him a note a few weeks after saying I'm not sure how I'd be able to repay that."

In addition to co-starring in "Lucky Guy," Scolari and Hanks also acted together in the 1980s sitcom "Bosom Buddies" and the 1996 film "That Thing You Do!"
