“And just like that…. SHE CHOSE [the University of Delaware],” Melissa captioned a triumphant Instagram post. “I’m having so many emotions right now! I am smiling, I am proud, I am crying. I am a hot mess!!” But on Antonia’s high school graduation day, Melissa looked like anything but a mess. 

Melissa Gorga’s Chic Graduation Look

For Antonia’s special day, Melissa chose a breezy, summery look in neutral hues. The Envy Boutique owner paired striped wide-legged linen pants with a white top, which she wore under an unbuttoned blazer. She accessorized with oversize sunglasses, dainty gold hoop earrings, and a bright yellow handbag. 

The New Jersey mama kept her beauty look simple and chic, tying her long, dark tresses back in a ponytail and wearing a glossy nude lip, lightly bronzed cheeks, and mocha-hued shadows to highlight her eyes.

Of course, Melissa isn’t the only fashionista in her family. Antonia could not have looked more stylish for her special day (we wonder where she gets it from!).

The rising college freshman paired her white cap and gown with a flouncy white minidress covered in delicate floral embroidery.

The uber-cute dress had a sweetheart neckline and ruffled hem. The newly minted high school graduate paired it with beige strappy heels and white nails. She wore her dark hair long and loose with a middle part. Antonia’s fresh, summery beauty look matched her mama’s subtle glam. 

Joe Gorga looked like quite the cool dad for the ceremony too. The New Jersey contractor posed proudly with his daughter wearing a spiffy checked shirt, fitted black pants, and shiny shoes. He also wore a silver watch and the smile of a parent who couldn’t be more proud.

Both mom and dad wrote the sweetest Instagram messages for their new graduate. In her post from June 22, Melissa gushed, “I will NEVER not see you with an oversized bow and a gigantic tutu. Spread your wings and fly my girl. I love you more than you know.”

Joe also shared a sentimental message for his daughter. “Just yesterday I was changing your diapers,” he wrote, captioning a picture of him planting a big smooch on the graduate’s cheek.
