Scarlett Johansson attends “A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Cure Parkinsons”, a benefit by the Michael J. Fox Foundation, held at the Sheraton New York Hotel and Towers in New York City.
Scarlett Johansson and Ryan Reynold’s Canadian wedding location wasn’t just to paparazzi-proof their nuptials last weekend, but to allow the couple and their guests to enjoy the great outdoors on Vancouver Island, PEOPLE reports in its latest issue, on sale Friday.
Even the groom, 31, took advantage of the setting – fishing for salmon and halibut while other guests went horseback riding and mountain biking on the grounds of the Clayoquot Wilderness Resort, a luxurious outpost of 20 canvas tents that caters to nature lovers.
“Scarlett wanted a ceremony with just family and a few select friends,” says a source close to the 23-year-old bride. Less than 40 people attended the wedding – but those who didn’t make the cut shouldn’t feel left out.
According to a friend, plans are afoot to throw a larger celebration for the couple, who began dating in April 2007 before announcing their engagement in May.
“They make a great couple and they’ll make an even better married couple,” says the source.
Scarlett Johansson and Ryan Reynolds made it official with a quiet wedding this weekend, a source close to the couple tells PEOPLE.
Reynolds’s rep also confirmed that they were married.
This is the first marriage for both. The couple had announced their engagement in May.
Johansson, 23, began dating Reynolds, 31, last year shortly after his split from singer Alanis Morissette, who recently expressed well wishes on her ex’s engagement.
Scarlett Johansson wants you to get in the spirit of recycling your cell phones.
Seriously.
Playing off posters for Johansson’s upcoming comic-book thriller The Spirit, the Environmental Media Association and Lionsgate studio have created PSAs encouraging folks to recycle their used cell phones. The ads feature one of the movie’s taglines, “Answer the call!”
The magazine ads—first appearing in People on Friday—will also include Johansson’s costar Eva Mendes.
EMA’s goal is to lower the amount of carbon dioxide emissions created by the production of new phones.
This isn’t the only good deed Johansson has been up to recently. She just completed a four-day visit to Rwanda, where she visited AIDS clinics with (RED), Bono and Bobby Shriver’s initiative to raise money for women and children affected by AIDS in Africa.

Scarlett Johansson has hit back at claims her close friendship with acclaimed director Woody Allen sent producers scrambling to manage her diva-like behavior on the set of new movie Vicky Cristina Barcelona.
Johansson, 23, has been touted as the Hollywood director’s latest inspiration since the pair teamed up for 2005 film Match Point.
A source tells the New York Post, “Scarlett isn’t the same… She’s turned into the biggest prima donna… everyone said she was a sweetheart… now they say, ‘Scarlett’s let it get to her head’.”
Just last week, the star defended allegations of her behavior, insisting she lives a ‘very modest and private lifestyle’.
A spokesperson for the actress adds, “Scarlett loves the movie and enjoyed working with everyone on it.”

Scarlett Johansson has denied she is prone to “diva-like” behavior – and insists she lives a “modest and private lifestyle.”
The 23-year-old actress has hit out at reports suggesting she is difficult to work with, claiming doesn’t let her success go to her head.
She says, “I’m not (a diva). I live a very modest and private lifestyle. I’d never invite any of that kind of thing. Things get crazy with the media, but am I demanding or travel with a huge entourage? No! I’m not a terrible person to work with.”

Jonathan Rhys Meyers was forced to halt filming on Match Point while kissing co-star Scarlett Johansson – so that he could have a shave.
Actor Meyers, who played Johansson’s lover in the 2005 Woody Allen-directed drama, held up production while filming an intimate scene so that he could de-fuzz.
Johansson says, “Kissing him wasn’t that bad, but he did have to stop and shave in the middle of a scene, even though he’d shaved that morning. The man has really got some serious beard on him.”
