Lauren Conrad spent 11 months writing her wedding vows.
The 28-year-old designer, who tied the knot with 34-year-old William Tell at a winery in Santa Ynez, California earlier this month, was determined to blow him away with her poignant words during their ceremony.
She said: "I kept a folder in my phone, and whenever I thought of something, I’d add it."
But William, who was worried "nothing was going to be good enough", broke down in tears while sharing his vows.
She said: "He needed a hankie! I kept it together."
But the blonde beauty admitted she wasn’t tempted to go on a crazy diet beforehand.
She said: "He proposed to me like this, he can marry me like this."
The couple met after being set up on a blind date by mutual friends on Valentine’s Day in 2012.
Lauren admits she has a very different idea for her wedding day growing up.
She said: "I always said I wanted a destination wedding – to be barefoot on the beach. [But] we realised our must-have-them-there list was over 100 people."
And she said their special day involved a lot of planning to ensure it was perfect.
Lauren told Us Weekly magazine: "We wanted somewhere that felt removed, but didn’t require anybody to get on a plane. We didn’t want to be surrounded by structures. But we learned through planning that meant we had to bring in everything from a kitchen to bathrooms to the tent."
The couple, who exchanged rose gold rings, are now looking forward to relaxing now their wedding is behind them.
Lauren said: "We had a busy summer. It will be nice to kind of do nothing."
William added: "Lauren is my best friend who I also think is really hot. We’re very good partners. We challenge each other, in a good way. And we both think we’re hilarious, so we spend a lot of time laughing. Mostly at each other."
