The source added that their legal city hall wedding was “exactly what they wanted. It was intimate and meaningful, and they were surrounded by loved ones. They had a small celebration after the ceremony and are so excited for what’s still to come.”
A week later, the pair had a lavish 3-day celebration of their romance in Palermo.
Last June, the singer told British Vogue that the “Eternity” actor had proposed with a ring that he had made for her.
She admitted she “never really understood the weight of” marriage until her engagement. “This decision to grow old together, to see a life and just, I don’t know, be best friends forever – it’s a really special feeling,” she said.
