Hard to believe but the Girls Gone Wild guy has finally settled down.

After spending his bachelor years building his X-rated boobcentric empire, Joe Francis  took himself off the market by tying the knot with girlfriend Christina McLarty in a civil ceremony over the weekend, E! News confirms.

And surprise! everyone kept their top on.

According to sources, the baby-faced Wild man and his betrothed traded vows before some 200 guests at his luxury beachfront palace in Punta Mita, Mexico. However, it wasn't what you'd call a traditional union.

The couple actually chose to join themselves in a civil domestic partnership because, as Francis previously said, they didn't feel it was right to get married when their gay and lesbian friends don't have the same legal rights to do so (so technically they're not legally husband and wife).

The nuptials were officiated by Hollywood über-agent Kevin Huvane, cochair of CAA. Also in attendance were members of the Keeping Up With the Kardashian clan, including Kris and Bruce Jenner and daughters Kylie and Kendall. Music legend Quincy Jones reportedly served as best man.

The 37-year-old Francis got engaged to McLarty, an L.A.-based CBS News entertainment reporter, while the two were vacationed in St.-Tropez in June. They had been dating for four years.
