The wedding took place at Kesaranta – the prime minister’s official residence – on Saturday, Finland’s government said.
It was attended by the couple’s family and closest friends.
Ms. Marin wore a satin gown while the groom was dressed in a black tuxedo, and the pair were seen holding each other and smiling.
Wedding photographer Minttu Saarni said on Instagram it was a “great honour” to capture their special day.
The couple have been together since they were teenagers and have a two-year-old daughter.
