A year after meeting, the two divorced their respective partners and began dating.
After nearly 5 years of dating, the two proved that they were in it for the long haul.
Stefani and Shelton’s weddingproves that when a cowboy meets a pop star, magic happens.
Here’s everything you should probably know about this magical wedding.
Her ceremony dress was an all-white gown with a V-shaped neckline.
For the reception, Stefani stepped out in a rockstar-style strapless mini dress.
The cake at Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton’s wedding was a jaw-dropping masterpiece crafted with love.
The loving tribute was designed by Fancy Cakes By Lauren, who revealed the special tribute on theirInstagram.
“Our bride wanted to make a sentimental statement by recreating her parent’s wedding cake.
Both of Gwen’s parents were there to see her honor them with this cake.”
Choosing this classic design was the right choice for the couple and they might have made it trendy again.
The couple landed on a name we all recognize Carson Daly.
Stefani is close friends with Daly, whom she first met during his TRL days.
The singer felt it was only right to give him that special honor.
“He was going to be a priest at one point, you know what I’m saying?
He’s Catholic, so we had that together.”
“I’ve known Gwen for 25 years.
I was friends with them both when they met separately,” he explained.
“I love Blake to death, he’s like the brother I’ve never had.
We think you’re perfect for it.'”
However, the couple didn’t need to panic or spend months narrowing down their venue choices.
Thanks to Shelton, they had the perfect spot for their ceremony.
The couple held their wedding at Shelton’s lavish ranch in Oklahoma.
According to a source close to them, the chapel holds special meaning to the couple.
The private chapel is the location Shelton picked to pop the question in 2020.
“Blake built a chapel on the grounds of his Oklahoma ranch.
He did it himself with help,” a source toldUs Weeklyat the time of their engagement.
“It’s really a tribute to their love.
They are going to get married in the chapel, most likely early next year.”
Their lively reception also took place at another part of the ranch.
The ranch now has a sentimental feature to honor the occasion.
One is a country boy at heart, while the other is a glamorous punk-pop princess.
For their summer wedding, Shelton and Stefani found a theme that represented them both: country glam.
No one loved the country glam theme more than their officiant, Carson Daly.
“The best way to describe it is it was perfectly them the whole weekend and the marriage itself.
The complicated wedding plans
During a worldwide pandemic, everyone’s plans were derailed.
In Hollywood, award shows were postponed, filming was halted, and concerts were canceled.
“I would say I just want my parents there at this point,” Stefani said.
Like, I would rather not have masks and that kind of thing.
With the wedding plans postponed, the singer was given extra time to plan her wedding.
Shelton was more than happy to hand over control.
He joked toUSA Todaythat the wedding was better off without his input.
“If I was picking our meal, it would just literally be everything fried,” he said.
“French fries, chicken tenders, you know, all of that stuff.
I think she knows that it would be a pretty classless wedding if I was in control.”
We don’t know what was served at the wedding, but we do know Stefani got her wish.
Her parents were there to see her walk down the aisle.
At Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani’s wedding, it was no different.
After some encouragement from their officiant, Carson Daly, the couple decided to write their own personal vows.
During Stefani’s vows, she paid tribute to Shelton’s late father and brother.
Her personal words left her groom feeling emotional at the altar.
“Man, it hit me.
Like, I couldn’t believe how hard it hit me,” Shelton toldPeople.
“I felt like at this point, I’ve kind of gotten calloused.
I guess I’m not because that absolutely slayed me.
It’s hard to even remember what else she even said.
I’ll never forget that feeling.”
Shelton had a tough act to follow, but he had a special trick up his sleeve.
“Not a dry eye in the house,” he recalled on the “Today Show.”
Despite being apprehensive about writing their own vows, Shelton said it couldn’t have gone any better.
“Everything happened exactly how it was meant to happen,” Shelton shared (via People).
“It just like, ‘Wow, we did it.
I have a song about my wife.’
It was so exciting to me.”
The three young boys looked extra dapper at the wedding with their custom suits.
Their famous mom shared photos onInstagramof them rocking the matching suits alongside Shelton at the wedding.
The dazzling bride was also a proud mom at the wedding and had touching tributes to her three boys.
TheVera Wang custom dressshe wore for the reception featured intricate details.
Leading up to Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani’s 2021 wedding, the couple joked about their wedding details.
“It’s ‘If You Leave’ from the “Pretty In Pink” soundtrack.
We talked about this.
We both love the song.
We’re both fans of the ’80s, why not?
Don’t you think that would be a great one, though?
We’ve literally talked about that,” the singer jested (ViaEntertainment Tonight).
Fallon wasn’t too sold on the idea and apparently, neither was the couple.
After their wedding,TMZpublished an exclusive video of their first dance.
The couple actually chose Peter Gabriel’s “In Your Eyes,” as their first dance song.
She personally selected the group to perform.
The group shared anInstagram photoof the bride and groom with a special message to them.
“Thank you for inviting us to be a part of your big day!
As musicians, it was an absolute honor to play at the wedding of two music industry legends.
We’re raising a glass to you both…,” the caption read.
After landing the special gig, the group spoke withWFAA 8about their performance.
They revealed that they performed at the ceremony and entertained the special guests during the cocktail hour.
“We loved being there and they made us feel very special to be a part of it.”
With only 40 guests, the couple chose only their closest friends and family to attend.
“I’ve had awkward conversations with so many of my friends.
‘Oh, oh, yeah.
I read about that.
How was that?’
Listen, we kept [the wedding] small, get over it,” said Shelton.
“That’s not about you.
So, there’s a lot of them.”
Also not on the guest list was talk show host Jimmy Fallon, who called Shelton out on air.
Duringan interview, Fallon teased him about the wedding.
“I just thought it was beautiful,” he said.
Are you busy this week?'
You know what not much planning went into it.
Who puts planning into a wedding, you know?
Anyway, I just remember not being invited.”
