American Idol star Katharine McPhee has married her long-term partner Nick Cokas.

A representative of the singer confirmed that the wedding took place in Beverly Hills on Saturday.

McPhee, 23, told People magazine: "[Nick] is the love of my life. This is a once in a lifetime occasion and everything is just perfect."

She met Corkas, 42, in 2005 and they got engaged last year.

The singer's fellow American Idol contestants Kellie Pickler and Mandisa were among the guests at the ceremony.

McPhee, who lost out to Taylor Hicks in the final of the 2006 reality TV show, reached number two in the US album charts with her debut LP in 2007.
