It didn't take long for Jewel Kilcher to take care of some personal business following Nashville Star's live sixth-season finale on Monday night.

Jewel and her longtime boyfriend Ty Murray eloped to the Bahamas and were wed in a private ceremony at The Cove Atlantis on Thursday night, her rep told People.

"The couple is very happy and look forward to enjoying their honeymoon," added the rep.

The Nashville Star sixth-season judge and star of CMT's Ty Murray's Celebrity Bull Riding Challenge have been together for 10 years but had never announced an engagement. 

Still, they were apparently prepared for the nuptials upon arriving in the Bahamas -- or at least Jewel was.

"She wore a traditional wedding gown, while Ty wore his favorite blue jeans, white shirt and cowboy hat," Jewel's rep told People.

The couple currently resides on a 2,200-acre ranch in Stephenville, TX.

In addition to Jewel's current Nashville Star judging stint, she also served as host of the show's fifth season last year. 

Both she and Murray also appeared as contestants on last summer's Fast Cars & Superstars - Gillette Young Guns Celebrity Race, an ABC reality series that saw celebrities try their hands at stock-car racing. 

Most recently, Murray was rumored to be a Dancing with the Stars seventh-season celebrity participant.
