Tracey Edmonds wed the actor on a beach

Eddie Murphy rang in the new year by saying, "I do."

The actor and fiancee Tracey Edmonds tied the knot on a private Island off Bora Bora on Tuesday, Jan. 1, reports People.

The sunset beach ceremony was performed in front of 25 close friends and family members. Although Edmonds wore a Sugia Nazel and Jill Baracci-designed gown, she opted to go bare for her footwear.

Among the guests were fellow former New Order singer Johnny Gill, who acted as best man. A private dinner and after party kept things hopping.

Edmonds' divorce from singer Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds was finalized in June, while Murphy's own divorce from Nicole Mitchell Murphy was done last April. Although the actor then began seeing former Spice Girl Melanie Brown shortly afterwards and even fathered a child, Angel Iris, with her, he began dating Edmonds before the pregnancy became known. They became engaged last July.

Murphy, 46, received an Oscar nomination for his supporting role in "Dreamgirls." His other recent credits include the "Shrek" films, "Doctor Dolittle 2," "The Haunted Mansion" and "Norbit."
