Salma Hayek and French businessman Francois-Henri Pinault spent their Valentine's Day making it official.

The Frida actress, 42, and the father of their 17-month-old baby, Valentina Paloma Pinault, were married in a Paris town hall over the weekend, mayor Jean-Pierre Lecoq confirmed to the Agence France-Presse.

Surprisingly, the couple, who met in 2006, announced their engagement in March 2007, but called it off in July 2008. Reports only recently began surfacing that the former Oscar nominee and billionaire had reconciled.

This is the first marriage for Hayek, who's been seen lately guest starring on 30 Rock and breast-feeding a poverty-stricken child. Pinault, 46, who owns Yves Saint Laurent, Gucci and other luxury brands, has two children from a previous marriage that ended in 2004.
