Kelly McGillis has found someone who takes her breath away!

The actress — who romanced Tom Cruise onscreen in 1986's Top Gun — wed girlfriend Melanie Leis in a civil union on Wednesday in Collingswood, NJ, the New York Times reports.

McGillis and Muzak sales executive Leis, 42, met in 2000 in Key West, Fla.; Leis was a bartender at a restaurant owned by McGills and her second husband Fred Tillman.

McGillis told the New York Times this week of last year's surprise "coming out": "That was one of those moments when somebody asked me a question, my kids had gone from home, so I really didn't have to protect anyone by skirting the question, and I just decided to be absolutely honest."
