Harry Shum Jr and Shelby Rabara tied the knot in Costa Rica at the weekend

Harry and Shelby have been in a relationship since 2007, and got engaged nearly two years ago, while on holiday together in Hawaii. "They have been together for years and are so great together," a source said of the couple at the time.Harry is best known for his role playing dancer Mike Chang on the hit US TV show, which came to an end in March of this year. At the start of next year, he will appear in fantasy series Shadowhunters, starring as Magnus Bane, the 'High Warlock of Brooklyn'.Shelby is also an actress and dancer – she co-starred with Harry in two episodes of Glee back in 2009 and 2010, as fellow high school student Shoshandra. She has also appeared in the movies 17 Again, Dance Flick and Fame.Last year, Harry opened up about his romance with Shelby, and revealed how the couple's dynamic had changed since getting engaged. "As a dude I thought I would be like, 'It's more for her'. But it was for me too. I'm super happy," he told People."You feel this different air between you. I guess it is that commitment that changes from a boyfriend-girlfriend commitment. I didn't realise it would change until I did it."
