These days it’s pretty rare to see Jakey poo out with anyone other than his ladylove Reese Witherspoon but he managed to wrestle himself away from her presence in order to spend time fraternizing with his sister and her husband for an afternoon. It looks like a very nice and relaxing afternoon with family … and hey, any photos of Jake sans Reese are winners in my book :)

Maggie Gyllenhaal and Peter Sarsgaard made it official on Saturday: The longtime couple, who have a daughter together, tied the knot in a romantic wedding in Italy. “We are happy to confirm that Maggie and Peter were married on Saturday, May 2,” the actress’s rep said in a statement to PEOPLE. The celebration took place in a small chapel in Brindisi, according to European news reports. Among the guests were Jake Gyllenhaal and Reese Witherspoon … In March, Gyllenhaal celebrated her impending nuptials with a bridal shower attended by friends, including Witherspoon, a source tells PEOPLE. Gyllenhaal, 31, and Sarsgaard, 38, are parents to daughter Ramona, 2 ½. The couple announced their pregnancy and engagement exclusively to PEOPLE in 2006 after being together for more than four years. The pair costarred in 2003’s In God’s Hands, a low-budget feature produced by Steven Soderbergh.

I have to say that I really believed that GyllenGaard was one of those couples (like Brangelina, for instance) that I never thought would get hitched. They seemed like the kind of couple that seemed totally uninterested in legalizing their relationship and were happy with their own personal commitment to one another. A three year engagement is a long one … I’m happy to know that they finally decided to go thru with their wedding. While it’s very nice that Jake Gyllenhaal and Reese Witherspoon were in attendance at his sister’s nuptials, I hope they didn’t get any funny ideas from the ceremony. In any event, much love and congrats goes out to the happy couple! May they live a long and healthy life together in happily wedded bliss!

There were lots of jubilant smiles and happy faces … it’s nice that the stars of The Dark Knight can celebrate their new movie (reportedly a tour de force for Heath Ledger) without having to cast any mournful sadness on the event over the loss of Heath Ledger. After the jump, check out more pics from the black carpet arrivals at the movie premiere and a few photos of some of the attendees at the movie’s afterparty at the Mandarin Oriental …

Here are a few more guests walking the black carpet at last night’s movie premiere:

It looks like any celeb who was in the NYC vicinity was able to make their way to the movie’s premiere … and who could blame them? The Dark Knight promises to be the summer’s biggest blockbuster and will, most likely generate massive buzz for the rest of the year. Considering there is Oscar talk already, well, there’s no telling how huge TDK may turn out to be. I, for one, am counting down the seconds until I am able to see the movie this Thursday night at midnight.

Here are a few pics of some of the guests who attended the premiere afterparty at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel, including Kim and Kate Ledger (Heath’s father and sister respectively) and various hotties:

I understand that Heath’s mother, Sally Bell, was also at last night’s premiere and/or afterparty but no members of the Ledger family gave any interviews to the press. Heath’s father was asked what he thought about the movie and he reportedly gave a thumbs up. I cannot imagine how difficult it must be for the family to watch this movie … but, again, I understand that Heath gave a phenomenal performance … one that will prolly live on as his legacy.

I believe there will be another premiere event for The Dark Knight here in LA this week … and then the movie will open for the rest of us to see. I am so excited!!!

Seriously, these are the cutest pics ever. Ramona, who will be 2 years old this October, has gotten so big! I’m just shocked at how fast these little celeb babies grow up. She looks relatively well-adjusted … well, for a 1 1/2 year old. Anyways, Maggie will be starring as Rachel Dawes in the upcoming Batman sequel The Dark Knight (taking over for Katie Holmes who originated the role in Batman Begins) so we can expect to see her on the promo circuit and on red carpets all over the place very soon. It’s nice that she’s able to spend this time with her family before the promo whirlwind kicks into gear. Oh, happy day!
