Sarah Hyland's wedding to Wells Adams included an age-old tradition.

The Modern Family alum, 31, shared a black-and-white Instagram photo on Thursday of her wearing a garter — along with a silk pajama set and a sheer robe — before walking down the aisle during their Aug. 20 ceremony outdoors at the Sunstone Winery near Santa Barbara, California.

She captioned the snap: "She wore a garter on her wedding day."

Adams, 38, was quick to respond in the comment section, teasing, "You didn't wear it for long 😏"

In addition to the Bachelor in Paradise bartender, the pair's celebrity pals also weighed in on the photo.

Chrissy Teigen responded, "OOOF 😍😍😍 congratulations to you both!!" while celebrity stylist Brad Goreski quipped, "Omg I was wearing one too."

Hyland wore two romantic gowns by Vera Wang for her nuptials.

The actress first wore an ivory silk Vera Wang Haute Couture ballgown featuring a sweetheart neckline, hand-pleated bodice, tulle sleeves and a thigh-high slit. She finished off her ceremony look with a cathedral-length tulle veil with an Italian macramé lace trim.

"Charm personified. So happy to share in your happiness! Much love. XXV," Wang captioned a beautiful bridal shot of Hyland on Instagram.

For the afterparty, the Love Island USA host changed into a strapless lace Vera Wang Haute Couture gown featuring a draped neckline and hand-detachable tulle sleeves. Her groom looked dapper in a black suit and skinny tie.

The couple originally planned to wed in August 2020, but delayed the nuptials multiple times due to COVID-19 concerns amid the pandemic.
