Talk about a “who knew?” moment. People revealed this morning that it was none other than Survivor host Jeff Probst who officiated The Office star Jenna Fischer’s wedding.

Probst and Fischer have known each other as far back as the 1990s, around the time Probst was ordained as a minister into the Universal Life Church. Fischer called on her friend’s officiating powers to perform the ceremony as she wed writer Lee Kirk on July 3.

The Survivor host even made a special visit to help his pal out. He’s currently in Nicaragua filming the CBS reality show’s 21st season, so he made a quick 24-hour jaunt up to Malibu to lend a hand at the nuptials.

This isn’t Probst’s first go around at a wedding either. People reports that not only has he performed the ceremonies at multiple friends’ weddings, but he also presided over his parents’ vow renewal for their 35th anniversary.
