Meyers has previously mentioned that he met Ashe at actor Chris Kattan's wedding. The couple reportedly started dating in 2008 and got engaged in July 2013. Meyers revealed to Jimmy Fallon that he used his dog Frisbee to propose to Ashe. He said that he tied the ring to Frisbee's collar.

Seth added:

"I just had to sit there looking at the dog. I was like, 'The dog's going to eat the ring!'"

Seth and Alexei got married in Martha's Vineyard, Massachusetts, on September 1, 2013.

According to Seth's Saturday Night Live (SNL) alumni, John Mulaney, Ashe reportedly became sick right before their wedding. However, in Mulaney's column on The Fashion Bible, he mentioned:

"Adam Bennett, the team doctor for the Chicago Bears, was a guest that weekend, presumably in case there were head injuries when the bride and groom danced the hora. Bennett gave Alexi NFL-style treatment, and she walked down the aisle brave and beautiful."
