He recalled, “That was the first time I’d seen her in a dress and it was one of the most stunning moments…I mean, she just looked unbelievable.”
He continued, “I told her after the wedding, it was so cool because, I felt like all night, me and her were just together in our own little world. And yes, we saw all of our friends and family, but we really made the night about me and her and it was great.”
Wilson added, “It was perfect.”
