Jost popped the question in May after the couple had been dating for two years.
Not long afterwards, Johansson appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show but would not divulge many details about the “very special moment”.
However, she did tease that Jost’s proposal was “surprising” and a bit James Bond like.
"He killed it," she said, calling her then fiance “very charming and very thoughtful and romantic”.
The marriage is the first for SNL writer and comic Jost, and the third for Johansson.

She and Dauriac welcomed a daughter named Rose that same year but their marriage came to an end in 2016.
