Deena got ready with her mother Joann Cortese, future mother-in-law Julie Buckner, and bridesmaids — sister Joanie Maiorella, childhood friend Mallory Pazder, and future sister-in-law Shannon Buckner — by her side.
Before tying the knot, Deena admitted she couldn’t “wait to marry Chris and then party!” “I think it’s going to be a lot of fun, and I can’t wait to celebrate with all my friends and family,” she told OK! exclusively.
Deena went with a classic ball gown for her walk down the aisle. "When Deena tried this particular dress on, she cried," Deena's mom told OK! "She continued to try other dresses on, but we said we would hold this dress to the end. She put it on again, and she cried and said, 'Ma, this is the dress.'"
Before saying "I do," Deena and Chris had their "first look" at Laurita Winery.
"He looked exactly like I imagined. Handsome and amazing," Deena said of seeing Chris for the first time.
Deena and her crew had fun posing for pics throughout the vineyard grounds! They were joined by Chris' two best men, his brothers James and Nick Buckner.

After saying "I do," Deena and Chris stole a look at each other before heading down the aisle as husband and wife.
