Looks like former child star Hao Shao Wen, 33, could not wait to get married.

After a one-year engagement, the Taiwanese actor tied the knot with Chinese make-up artist Lin Ningrui, yesterday (May 15) in Hangzhou.

In the afternoon, Shao Wen took to Weibo to share pics from their wedding earlier in the day.

"Getting married to Lin Ningrui. Is it too early to say ‘I do’?" he captioned the post.

The wedding appeared to take place in a resort, and Shao Wen was smartly dressed in a shirt and tie to fetch the bride, who was in a breezy dress. He later changed into a more casual striped shirt.

He also posted pics from their wedding banquet at night.

Besides photos of the newlyweds, there were also snaps of Shao Wen with family as well as his groomsmen.

Among them was a familiar face, fellow former child star Shi Xiao Long, 35.

The Chinese actor, who starred alongside Hao Wen in 1994 kungfu comedy Shaolin Popeye, and its spin-off Shaolin Popeye II: Messy Temple, was his best man. 

Not only did he help shoot videos of the couple, he also hosted the tea ceremony.

Taking his best man duties seriously

Fans were thrilled to see the pair reunited and many commented that it brought back childhood memories.

There were comments like “So nostalgic!”, "I watched a lot of their movies when I was young", "It's great, they can still be good friends after so many years", and "So blissful to have such a good childhood friend as your best man and wife who loves you so much. Best wishes."

The bromance is strong

Some also remarked that they don’t seem to have changed, having grown up “proportionally”, physique-wise.

There were also netizens who commented that it’s a pity Hong Kong comedian Ng Man Tat, who starred alongside them in the films, has passed away and wasn’t there to complete the reunion.
