The wedding took place in Eilinsfeld's home city of Philadelphia, PA, and by the looks of both Wilson's and Eilinsfeld's Instagram story photos, it looks like a wonderful time was had by all. Eilinsfeld took to social media on December 2, announcing it was the week she had been waiting for.

"IT’S OFFICIALLY OUR WEDDING WEEK!!!," she wrote on Instagram. "This is the earliest photo we have together. We were NOT dating, but I secretly had such a massive crush. I made sure not to stand too close to him here for fear he’d figure it out and it’d 'ruin our friendship'. Well, he did find out. And the friendship was over… because he felt the same way! Now, over 5 years later, I get to marry my crush and I CANNOT WAIT. Love you @sawandiwilson."

According to Soap Opera Digest, Wilson and Eilinsfeld became engaged right before he landed the role of Isaiah on GH while still living in New York. They have both since relocated to Los Angeles.

According to Playbill, Eilinsfeld has numerous Broadway credits, starring in musicals such as Wicked, Pretty Woman, Kinky Boots, and American Psycho. She has also appeared on TV on Prodigal Son and Royal Pains.

After a whirlwind weekend, Wilson posted that he and his new bride were back in Los Angeles by Sunday night.

Isaiah's Port Charles love life

On-screen, Isaiah has taken an interest in Deputy Mayor Jordan Ashford (Tanisha Harper). She is advising him on negotiating his new hospital contract, and he just asked her out to dinner.

Isaiah also shared scenes with Molly (Kristen Vaganos) when he found her alone on her birthday at Bobbie's reading Little Women. Although those were Isaiah and Molly's only scenes so far, now that Molly has split with TJ and is single, anything can happen. Considering Jordan's interest in Isaiah and the fact that she is TJ's mother, it could get complicated.

Thankfully, Wilson's real-life romance seems a little less soapy.
