Mistresses star Rochelle Aytes is officially a wife! The star’s rep confirms to The Knot that the bride and her fiance, CJ Lindsey, got married this past Sunday, August 28, in Tarrytown, New York.

The bride, 40, and groom exchanged vows at the Tappan Hill Mansion in an outdoor ceremony that included sweeping views of the Hudson River and its surrounding landscape. The wedding itself was intimate and only involved the couple’s closest friends and family members. No costars or celebrities attended the nuptials.

The bride and groom opted for an elegant wedding theme, with a red, white and black color scheme. Aytes looked stunning on her wedding day in a form-flattering, strapless gown featuring a lace bodice. Her husband could not keep his eyes off her in a crisp white blazer and black bow-tie.

Lindsey penned a sentimental and sweet message via Instagram the morning after the wedding. “Last night I got to marry the woman of my dreams,” the In the Morning actor wrote, alongside a photo of himself embracing his wife on the dance floor. “God is Good! Thank you to all our friends and family that come to share the special day with us. By far one of the greatest days of my life. Thanks for capturing a great moment@misterpaley.”

Lindsey proposed to his longtime love in July 2015. Aytes adorably announced the news to fans on social media. "He asked me to marry him and I said Yes!" she wrote at the time. "I feel so blessed to have this amazingly beautiful man in my life! God is so good. All the time!!”
