The original story continues below.
After famously getting engaged 20 times, Danielle Staub has finally found the one. The Real Housewives of New Jersey mom married Marty Caffrey on Saturday, May 5, Us Weekly reports.
Danielle and Marty wed on Bimini Island in the Bahamas. She told Us Weekly that she was "excited to be a wife." “It’s different when you’re a girlfriend, and then it’s different when you’re a fiancée, the stages are all different. When it gets real, and we did our rehearsal last night, and we did our fake I do’s, it’s like, oh my God, we’re almost married,” she said. “This is happening I felt like, when I saw his family last night for the first time after our rehearsal, on the beach, I felt them looking at me like I was a wife. And to me, and my daughters, looking at him like he is my husband. And I think it definitely made it super profound for me.”
Danielle's bridal party was full of familiar faces to RHONJ fans. Danielle previously told Andy Cohen during this season's reunion that she had invited Teresa Giudice to be her matron of honor, along with her daughters Christine and Jillian Staub also serving as maids of honor. She also said that she asked Melissa Gorga and Margaret Josephs to be in her bridal party, along with 12 other people.
Fans got to see the moment Marty proposed to Danielle this season of RHONJ (clip below). Marty surprised Danielle when he popped the question in front of Teresa and Margaret with dancers and a violinist playing in the background. "The engagement was simply beautiful," Danielle gushed at the reunion. "He is such a gentleman."
Believe it or not, no one was happier to see Danielle get engaged than her foe-turned-friend Teresa. "From knowing Danielle in the past, she hasn't had the best experience with men," Teresa said on RHONJ. "It took her a while to find Marty, but sometimes you have to kiss a lot of frogs before you find your prince, and I'm really, really happy for Danielle."
Danielle previously shared with The Daily Dish how she knew Marty was someone special when they first met. "Marty and I, we met, and it just seemed like we immediately were drawn to one another," she said. "There's something about him I hadn't seen in anyone except for, believe it or not, the father of my children. Very caring, very sweet."
