Matching his wife’s elegance and class, Blake opted to wear a smart white and black suit. He paired his ensemble with a black bow tie, a formal white dress shirt, formal shoes, and what appeared to be a flower poking out of his suit jacket’s front pocket.

Blake and Teresa exchanged vows indoors in front of their wedding officiant and beside their pretty bridesmaids and dashing groomsmen. Their altar, which did not join at the top to form an arch, was adorned with beautiful white flowers.

To say Blake’s parents were unbelievably proud to watch their son become a husband is an understatement, they are also elated. His iconic mom, Rosie O’Donnell, has shared several pictures and accompanying captions boasting about her son’s big day.

“[Awwwwww] #newlyweds – 💙💚💛🧡❤️Blake and Teresa O’Donnell #loveuso,” expressed the “Now and Then” star in one of her messages. She penned this alongside a heartwarming photo of Blake and Teresa gazing at each other with nothing but love in their eyes.

Apart from Rosie’s posts, Blake’s stepmother, Anne Steele—who is married to Kelli Carpenter (Blake’s mom and Rosie’s ex-wife)—shared her own pictures. Anne, who is a singer, also sang at the wedding, adding another layer of sentimentality to the affair.

“It’s official! Our son Blake has married Teresa, the love of his life. It was a perfect day filled with love surrounded by family and so many friends,” reads the start of her caption.

“We couldn’t have imagined a better way to welcome Teresa to our crazy family! It was my honor to sing my original song #Timeless for their first dance! I will never forget it. Here’s to a lifetime of love! We can’t wait to see all that comes next for you!” Anne swooned.

She also posted a picture of a special detail the couple added at their wedding—a “memory table” to commemorate loved ones who could not be there to celebrate with them.

Rosie’s picture showed a nostalgic image of her late mom (Blake’s grandmother) Roseanne O’Donnell, and a heartwarming placard featuring a mini bio of who she was.

Other pictures continue to highlight all the fun that was had at the wedding of the couple who got engaged in December 2022.
