Just three months after getting engaged, gospel singer Israel Houghton and "The Real" host Adrienne Bailon have tied the knot in Paris.

The newlyweds shared a sneak peek of their wedding, which was attended by 70 close friends and family members, according to the Gospel Herald. Some of their guests include Bailon's "The Real" co-hosts Loni Love, Jeannie Mai, and Tamera Mowry.

The happy couple shared tonnes of photos of their wedding on their Instagram accounts. On his page (@ihoughton), the gospel singer gave thanks to God after saying "I Do" to Bailon.

"My heart is absolutely full to overflowing. I've never experienced such a love, and I never will again. If grace only worked for people who deserved it, THIS picture would not exist. Grace cannot be achieved, it must be received. And I have received God's grace in immeasurable ways in the form of my wife, my soulmate, my present and my future. Por Siempre y Siempre," he wrote.

This is Houghton's second wedding and Bailon's first. Houghton was married to first wife Melissa for over 20 years, and got divorced earlier this year. In August, he announced his engagement to Bailon with a picture of her hand in front of the Eiffel Tower in Paris, sporting a massive engagement ring.

"I have seen and felt the essence of God's grace through the life, the kindness and the courage of this woman," he wrote. "I've seen her attacked, lied about, wrongfully accused, mocked, laughed at, and misunderstood. But, I've also seen the shining example of the eagle she is that rises above the cacophony of the noise of ignorants — I'm learning from her example. She loves Jesus. She loves her family. She loves people. Even the ones that don't love her back."

"I pray God give me that same grace in my life. I've taken a giant leap of faith in asking her to share life with me forever and to give me a shot at getting it right this time," he said. "She has graciously granted my request... She said yes. Thanks Be To God. Thank you @adriennebailon for graciously loving me."
