Call her Mrs. Hill! The Real Housewives of Atlanta star Cynthia Bailey finally tied the knot with fiancé Mike Hill, and she looked like an utter goddess while saying her vows. Cynthia, 53, walked down the aisle on October 10 wearing a breathtaking down gown designed by Nneka C. Alexander of Brides by Nona according to People magazine — see photos here. She looked like an absolute princess in the dreamy piece, which included sexy mesh. She added to the look with a stunning headpiece from Bridal Styles Boutique, along with Badgley Mischka shoes.
“Mike and I are elated that today has finally come! 10/10/20 is and always will be our perfect date. We are not perfect, but, are perfect for each other,” the couple said in a joint statement to the magazine, acknowledging their choice to go forward with plans during the COVID-19 pandemic. “We are living in a very different time, and now more than ever we realize that life is too short, and to never take anything for granted. We are so grateful to have found each other. Love with the help of God conquers all,” he also said.
Fans were desperate to see what the model would be wearing when she made #CHill official. She actually dropped a huge hint about her ensemble in an interview conducted nearly a year ago. “I’m not a traditional mom. I’m not a traditional girlfriend. I’m not a traditional anything. And I most definitely will not be a traditional bride,” she told Page Six Style. “I kind of march to the beat of my own drum,” she added, noting that it wasn’t going to be anything like the silver ballgown she wore at her first wedding to ex-husband Peter Thomas.
Cynthia and Mike’s wedding was a massive bash, held at the swanky Governor’s Towne Club in Atlanta. Despite the coronavirus pandemic, the couple welcomed 250 guests to their reception; they reportedly did temperature checks, and gave attendees custom protective face masks made by The Real Housewives of New York alum Jill Zarin! Truly, only the best for Cynthia and her Bravo ladies on her special day.
