DeVon Franklin has gotten married at second sight.
Approximately seven months following the movie producer’s engagement to fitness trainer Maria Castillo, they exchanged vows in a beautiful California wedding ceremony on August 2.
Franklin shared with People magazine in an interview on August 4th that they aimed to design an event reminiscent of their love story’s inception. Typically, a wedding is seen as the conclusion of a love tale, but it’s merely the start. This event was meant to reflect that, allowing guests to truly feel our affection for each other.
As a devoted admirer, I can’t help but share the excitement of the couple who made their romantic debut last September. Their wedding day was graced by an illustrious gathering of celebrities, such as Kelly Rowland, Tyler Lepley, LeToya Luckett, Adrienne Bailon-Houghton along with her husband Israel Houghton, Robin Thede, and many others, who were all privileged to bear witness to their joyous union.
Franklin and Castillo, aged 30, infused the ceremony with a mix of classic sophistication, love, and coziness. Exchanging their promises near a field of white roses, the couple later unwinded at the reception, which showcased lace and even more cream-hued florals within the Los Angeles venue.
The vibrant colors and fabrics were equally striking in their attire. While the actor from “Divorced Sistas” donned a stylish black Giorgio Armani suit, his partner graced the aisle in an exquisite Galia Lahav gown, featuring delicate sleeves, a long train, and intricate lace detailing.
The fitness influencer described her ideal wedding dress as one that embodies traditional lace patterns, a hint of dramatic elegance, and a distinct Spanish influence. She wants it to be a beautiful blend of timeless sophistication and daring boldness, infused with a touch of tradition and passionate flair.
This private event takes place almost four years since Franklin concluded his romantic relationship with Meagan Good. (It’s worth noting that she tied the knot with Jonathan Majors earlier in 2021.)
Following the conclusion of his nine-year marriage with the relationship expert from “Married at First Sight” in December 2021, he took some time to ponder over their choice to separate.
“He posted on Instagram that he’s feeling both physically uncomfortable and contentedly at ease as we step into 2022. He added that this is where he truly belongs. As the philosopher Wyclef once sang, ‘I’ll be gone till November,’ indicating a temporary retreat from social media. Although he may return before then, his message is clear. Thank you for your well wishes.”
