Right before, she shared a sweet video, where she played around with her white floral veil while getting ready for her big day.

In her caption tags, Gwen revealed that her stunning white off-the-shoulder gown had been designed by Vera Wang, while her trusty stylists Rob Zangardi and Mariel Haenn had helped her achieve her pristine look.
The Voice judges tied the knot on Saturday, July 3 in a ceremony at Blake’s ranch.
He built an outdoor chapel for the wedding with input from his soon-to-be wife.
‘Blake built a chapel on the grounds of his Oklahoma ranch. He did it himself with help,’ a source told Us Weekly in December 2020. ‘It’s really a tribute to their love. They are going to get married in the chapel, most likely early next year.’
Gwen’s Instagram post included many of the people who helped make the wedding possible, among them Carson Daly, the long-running host of The Voice.
According to Page Six, Daly officiated the ceremony for his current and former costars.
The TV host revealed in January that he had urged Gwen not to date Blake, though he seemed to be joking somewhat at the time.

The wedding was an intimate affair for Blake and Gwen, with Today reporting that they only had about 40 guests, which were made up of family and close friends.
Among those seen attending were Gwen’s parents Dennis Stefani and Patti Flynn, though it’s not yet known who else attended.
On Thursday, TMZ reported that the couple had obtained their marriage license, meaning they had only 10 days to get married before it expired.
Blake, Gwen and her children had departed Los Angeles on Friday, June 25, just after the country hitmaker had finished up work on The Voice.
The wedding’s success can be largely attributed to Gwen’s planning.
In May, Blake joked to USA Today that it would be a ‘pretty classless wedding’ if he planned it, which was why Gwen was taking charge.
‘I want her to do all of that stuff and handle it because it’s going to be great. She’s in the middle of planning the thing, and she’s always so mindful … of me,’ he continued. ‘She’s like, “Hey, I don’t want to just take this thing over.” I think she’s having a blast doing it. I mean, I know she’s having a blast doing it.’

Blake and Gwen’s romance goes back to 2015, when they struck up a relationship while working together on The Voice.
At the time, both singers were coming off heartbreaks.
In July of that year, Blake and his then-wife Miranda Lambert announced that they were divorcing after four years of marriage and almost a decade together.
Gwen had her own marital split when she announced her divorce from Bush lead singer Gavin Rossdale in August 2015 after two decades together and nearly 13 years of marriage.
She shares three boys with her ex-husband: 15-year-old Kingston, 12-year-old Zuma and seven-year-old Apollo.

In February, Blake opened up about how much it meant for him to become a stepfather to the three boys during a radio interview for KFROG’s The Ride With Kimo & Heather.
‘I don’t know if it’s as hard or harder or not as hard as being an actual, biological parent, you know?’ he mused. ‘I have a stepfather in my life who’s one of my heroes. I love my stepfather and I look up to him and he’s like a father to me, so I have a good inspiration in my life for how to do this and the kind of stepdad I want to be. And I take it very serious.
‘But I also have a blast with it, I’m not gonna lie,’ he continued. ‘I don’t take it so serious that I’m not enjoying this time because I really am, especially now that we’re five years into this thing.’
Blake added, ‘I can’t imagine my life without these kids now.’
The country singer and Gwen went public with their relationship in late 2015.
Back then, a source told People that Blake ‘wanted to take his time with marriage,’ though he was ‘absolutely committed to Gwen.’
He decided he was ready to move forward on October 27, 2020, when the two announced their engagement.
