    Comedian Will Forte officiated. Ward wore a dress by Carolina Herrera and walked down the aisle to "Crimson and Clover" by Tommy James & The Shondells. Carney was accompanied down the aisle by the couple's Irish wolfhound Charlotte. The wedding party included Ward's sister Danielle Shuster and brother Henry Ward, while Carney was accompanied by his brothers Will Carney, Michael Carney and Barry Stormer.

    Dan Auerbach, Carney's bandmate in the Grammy Award-winning rock 'n' roll duo, also attended.
