Earlier this week, we reported that the singers Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani got married in Oklahoma last Saturday. Now, sources are speaking out to describe the wedding as a “fairy tale experience.”

“It was absolutely a picture-perfect intimate wedding with family,” one source told Entertainment Tonight. “Everyone at the wedding was so thrilled to see Gwen and Blake finally get married. They have been talking about a wedding for so long and wanted nothing more than to officially call themselves a family. It was a fairy-tale experience even for the guests.”

“Everyone who attended the ceremony was talking about Gwen and Blake’s love for one another,” the insider added. “They have been so careful because they’ve had their hearts broken and this wedding made everyone feel like dreams do really come true. They have both been through a lot and deserved to find each other. They were meant to be a couple in every way.”

Carson Daly, the host of “The Voice” who also officiated the wedding, revealed this week that he’d challenge Shelton to write a song for Stefani as his vows. Despite being reluctant to do so at first, Shelton ended up taking the challenge, telling wedding guests, “Gwen has always given me a hard time about not writing enough songs, so I wrote a song.”

“Guitar comes in, stool, next thing you know, he wrote her a song, and he sings her a song — while he’s crying — that he wrote specifically for her. ‘Reach the Star,’ I think it was called,” Daly said. “Not a dry eye in the house. That was a highlight.”

Daly went on to add that the vows between Shelton and Stefani were just one of “a bunch of pinch me moments” at the intimate celebration.

“It was perfectly them, the whole weekend and the marriage itself. It was as elegant, and refined, and cool as Gwen is, and it was as country, and down home, and fun as Blake is,” Daly said. “They just work. They’re an unlikely pair. They’re like if you paired delicious fried chicken with a glass of champagne. On paper, on the menu, it doesn’t seem to work, but it works.”

“They’re comfort food with class and everybody roots for that,” he continued. “… It was just their family. It was small and it was perfect.”
