Meg White had a memorable start to her Memorial Day weekend.

The 34-year-old White Stripes drummer tied the knot last Friday with fiancé Jackson Smith in Nashville, the couple confirmed in a statement today.

White and Smith, the son of punk legend Patti Smith and the late Fred "Sonic" Smith of MC5, exchanged vows in the backyard of Meg's musical partner in crime, Jack White, with close family and friends in attendance. 

The intimate nuptials was part of a double wedding bill that also saw Jack Lawrence, the bass player for Jack White's side bands the Raconteurs and the Dead Weather, make it official with his gal-pal, Jo McCaughey.

This is the second marriage for White, who used to be Mrs. Jack White (né Jack Gillis; he took her surname as his stage moniker). They were married from 1996 to 2000 before divorcing, but they famously pretended to be brother and sister as the White Stripes hit the big time.

White and Smith will continue to make their residence in Motor City, where the Stripes and MC5 got their start.
