And the bride wore... : Behati Prinsloo wed Adam Levine in Mexico with a ... - Daily Mail

By Julie Moult

The dress remained a tight-lipped secret right up until the moment she walked down the aisle.

But on Sunday it was revealed Victoria's Secret model Behati Prinsloo chose a custom-made gown by Marchesa to marry Maroon 5 frontman and The Voice coach Adam Levine, according to People.

The pair - who were engaged for just over a year- tied the knot on a stunning organic farm in Mexico on Saturday evening.

They said their vows in front of 275 guests including Robert Downey Jnr model Coco Rocha and Adam's bandmates James Valentine and Jesse Carmichael.

Behati's custom bridal gown was likely influenced by Marchesa's 2014 Fall Collection which, according to fashion watchers, was inspired by the children's classic book, The Secret Garden.

The traditional collection features romantic floor length dresses with delicate re-embroidered lace touches and floor-length veils.

Whatever she wore, the 25 year-old South African-born beauty was sure to have looked stunning.

The model is believed to have worked with Marchesa's Georgina Chapman in New York to make sure her dream dress became a reality.

A source told People: 'She had final fittings a few weeks ago when she was in New York with Adam, while he was doing press for his film Begin Again.

'She finished up her fittings there, then must have had the custom-made Marchesa dress VERY carefully flown to Mexico, where the wedding took place.'

According to the report in People, there was no dress code for the guests but many of the men opted for light-weight linen suits with summer dresses a popular choice amongst the women.

'All the guests were happy and relaxed, an insider told the magazine. 'They were excited to celebrate with the couple on their big day.'

Just hours before his big moment, the groom who once vowed never to marry, showed few signs of nerves.

'Let's do this!' Adam, 35, posted on Facebook.

Adam's nerves were likely tamed by the presence of his friend Jonah Hill, who officiated the ceremony.

According to an insider who spoke with E!, 'Jonah was hysterical. He was telling so many jokes, but then in the middle would be so sweet and sincere.'

The source added: 'He also talked about how sweet Behati is and how perfect they are for one another.'

Guests were treated to an anecdote by the Superbad actor, who shared that while younger, he and Adam would skateboard with Robert Downey Jr. and Stevie Nicks.

'He set up the joke perfectly. His timing was amazing. Everyone was giggling,' the source elaborated.

As well as Jonah officiating, Prinsloo's dad, who is a minister, also gave the happy couple a blessing as they married on the beach in the evening.

During the service the bride and groom read vows that they had written themselves, and afterward guests were treated to a reception with plenty of food and drink.

The source added: 'It was all fresh, seared tuna, lovely salads, everything was organic and amazing. Drinks were flowing. There was every kind of mojito you can imagine.'

Adam and Behati are now set to honeymoon in South Africa.
