The couple's infant daughter, Winter Victoria Parker, who was born in January, was also at the wedding.
Among the 300 guests in attendance, some famous faces included Sting, Olivia Munn, Emma Watson, Paypal co-founder Peter Thiel and Newark Mayor Cory Booker.
Leading up to the couple's nuptials, several reports claimed that Parker and Lenas were planning a "Game of Thrones"-themed wedding. While the wedding took place in a lush, green California forest worthy of a scene from the hit HBO series, it was a traditional wedding, sans any dragons or sword fights - or themes.
In April, Parker took to Twitter to clarify that his wedding would be "modern" and that there was nothing "medieval" about it. But he did confirm then that his guests' would be offered costumes designed by Academy Award winning designer Ngila Dickson, who was the designer for "The Lord of the Rings" film trilogy.
This is not a "theme" wedding, and there will be nothing medieval about it.

The groom's wardrobe, the couple's daughter's dress and the flower girls' dresses were also designed by Dickson. As for the bride, Lenas wore a dress by designer Elie Saab.
Wedding goers danced the night away to live performances from the band, The Good, The Bad and The Ginger, and Loreena Mckennit.
Parker's rep declined to comment on the cost of the wedding or honeymoon details.
Parker was instrumental in launching the music-sharing website Napster in 1999 when he was just 19 years old. Years later, he took on the record industry in federal court. He is now worth billions since Facebook went public - Forbes estimates Parker has a net worth of $2 billion - because he was an early adviser to the company and served as its first president.
Parker's role in Facebook's success was dramatized in the 2010 film, "The Social Network," in which he was played by Justin Timberlake.
