Morgan told the publication that she and Tanner initially thought of eloping, but then decided on a small celebration with 130 guests, including close family and friends. "I feel like our wedding was the perfect in-between because it was as intimate as it could be (with a huge family like mine), but still lively," she explained.

Morgan's siblings, mother Dina Ruiz, and her husband Scott Fisher were also in attendance. Ruiz was married to Clint from 1996 to 2014 and was his second wife. She expressed her joy on Instagram, commenting on her daughter's recap post of her special day, saying, "If there is such a thing as perfection, we all just experienced it. You are the most loved couple this side of the moon. We love you so much."

Clint also recently demonstrated that age is just a number by making a notable public appearance at Dr. Jane Goodall's "Reasons for Hope" event in Carmel-by-the-Sea, California on March 24. The director, who resides in the area, attended the event at the Sunset Cultural Center, casually dressed and looking full of energy. Despite showing some signs of aging, Clint exhibited a vibrant demeanor, later taking the stage independently while being assisted throughout the evening.
