"Yesterday we took one last walk down the aisle - this time in my little church," the Ugly Betty star wrote on Instagram. "Officially wedded Catholic. Amen! #MyJim."

Williams wore a sleeveless Pamella Roland gown and accessorized with sparkling drop earrings.

She and Skrip married the first time at St. Stanislaus church, where Skrip's own parents wed, in Buffalo, N.Y., in July 2015. It is unclear whether the Catholic church at the time recognized this wedding as the sacrament of marriage.

"Jim is a real man," the actress told People magazine at the time. "You want somebody in your life who has integrity, who is solid, who knows who he is. He's romantic and he's a great guy."
