The world may still be full of terrorists and other major crimes that need to be solved by the crack team that makes up NCIS: Los Angeles, but when the series airs its finale on May 21, it will end on a happy and hopeful note with Callen (Chris O’Donnell) and Anna (Bar Paly) getting married.

Parade has a first look at several photos from the nuptials, which ends up being more of an impromptu wedding than the big bash that the couple have spent the season planning. Is that a courthouse where the two say their vows? That definitely isn't any of the wedding gowns that Anna tried on.

It’s a wedding that’s been a long time in the making with Callen first learning how to trust Anna, who is Russian and has – depending on how you see it – the fortune or misfortune of having Arkady Kolcheck (Vyto Ruginis) as her father. Then Anna took an undercover assignment that made it impossible for her to return to the United States without some finagling by Hetty (Linda Hunt), and those were just a few of the bumps along the road that will finally culminate with them saying “I do.”

“We try to put everyone in a really good place and Callen and Anna are two of them,” showrunner R. Scott Gemmill told Parade at the series wrap party. “Part of what happens in the finale is Callen getting to a point of contentment and I think that’s why he’s asked Anna to marry him. He’s gotten to a point where he’s much more present and looking to the future, where for 14 seasons, we’ve seen him trying to learn about his past and figure it out. I think he’s in a good place. They both are.”

The two-part series finale was spread over two Sundays with part one airing on May 14, and titled “New Beginnings.” In the first episode, the ATF seeks help from the NCIS team to investigate stolen military-grade weapons and to locate one of its agents who has gone missing. Also, Callen and Anna continue to plan their wedding, Rountree’s (Caleb Castille) sister interviews for medical school, and Sam (LL Cool J) encourages his father to take part in a drug trial.

Then, on May 21, the series wraps up with “New Beginnings, Part 2,” in which the NCIS team continues the case with the ATF and the stolen military-grade weapons. And, Callen and Anna decide on an impromptu wedding.

Part one of “New Beginnings” will air in the NCIS: Los Angeles regular timeslot of 10 p.m. ET/PT on CBS. But part two will air at 9 p.m. ET/PT to make room in the schedule for the special Salute to NCIS: Los Angeles at 10 p.m. ET/PT. Both will also be available to stream live and on demand on Paramount+.
