Joe Keery dressed up in his Scoops Ahoy best for one extra sweet occasion.

The 33-year-old actor and musician officiated the Halloween-themed wedding of his close friend and Post Animal bandmate Matt Williams and Veronica Capaldi in Simi Valley, Calif., over the weekend. And, naturally, he did it while dressed as his *Stranger Things* character, Steve Harrington.

Keery can be seen wearing Steve's sailor-themed work outfit while standing at the altar alongside Williams and Capaldi in video footage from the event posted on social media.

"And by the power invested in me by the state of California… yesterday," Keery says in the clip. "I now pronounce you husband and wife."

Keery donned the iconic blue ensemble in season 3 of *Stranger Things*, which saw Steve pick up a job at the local ice cream shop at the mall. It's there that he befriended Robin Buckley (Maya Hawke), who would go on to help him and the gang crack a bunch of secret Russian codes.

In addition to starring on *Stranger Things*, Keery is also a successful musician who performs under the moniker Djo. He was previously a member of Post Animal alongside Williams prior to joining the cast of the hit Netflix series, and officially rejoined the band with the release of their album *Iron* earlier this year.

Since then, Keery and Post Animal have been on the road together for a majority of the year as part of Djo's Back on You World Tour. The groups teamed up once again for an extension — called the Another Bite Tour — which came to a close following two sold-out shows in Los Angeles last week.

Fans will see Keery next when he appears on the fifth and final season of *Stranger Things*, which will be released in three separate installments beginning on Nov. 26. The eight-episode season is set one year after the events of season 4 and will see the reunited Hawkins gang on the hunt to kill the villainous Vecna (Jamie Campbell Bower) once and for all.

"This is the biggest season we've ever had in terms of action, in terms of visual effects, in terms of story," co-creator Ross Duffer said in a behind-the-scenes featurette. "Ultimately, what people want is to see these characters together one last time."

The first volume of season 5 will be released on Nov. 26 at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT, with the second volume following on Christmas Day at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT, and the finale on its own on New Year's Eve at 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT.
