THE Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine wed Behati Prinsloo on Saturday in an all-star, laid-back affair in Los Cabos, Mexico.
The bride wore a Marechesa gown at the ceremony, held in a tent at Flora Farms.
The 250-plus guests, however, were encouraged to dress informally. Among those in attendance were Robert Downey Jr., Jonah Hill and Jason Segel, as well as Prinsloo’s fellow models Coca Rocha, Erin Heatherton and Candice Swanepoel. Stevie Nicks made a special appearance and serenaded the newlyweds.
Levine’s Maroon 5 bandmates also joined in the festivities. The best man was keyboardist Jesse Carmichael.
Guitarist James Valentine said that Levine wasn’t worried about tying the knot.
Levine started the day with a Facebook post exclaiming, “Let’s do this!”
“The Voice” coach proposed to the Victoria’s Secret model in July last year shortly after rekindling their relationship. Levine, 35, first began dating Prinsloo, 25, in May 2012.
Pre-Prinsloo, the Maroon 5 frontman was vocal about how marriage might not be for him.
“Famous last words, ‘I’ll never get married,’” Levine joked during an appearance on “The Tonight Show With Jay Leno” last October. “I still don’t necessarily think you have to get married unless you meet someone that makes you want to marry them. And then you marry them and it’s wonderful.”
When Levine knew Prinsloo was the one, he asked her dad for permission to propose. “It was extremely nerve-wracking,” the singer revealed.
Those nerves didn’t go away when he finally got down on one... well, two knees.
“I’m a confident person, but I got on that knee and everything changed immediately. I lost my equilibrium. I had to get on the other one.”
Once he was down on his other knee, the typically chatty Levine was at a loss for words, literally.
“I usually have some charming thing to say. I remember one thing about it. I did say at one point, ‘Both knees! Look I got on both knees!’ And it didn’t sound charming at all.”
But before saying “I do,” Levine and Prinsloo said goodbye to their single days in style. The “Love Somebody” singer and a group of about 50 pals headed to Las Vegas on May 21 for his bachelor party.
Prinsloo and a slew of her model gal pals hit Miami the weekend of June 13 for a girls-only bachelorette bash.
