Carson Daly shares details on officiating Blake Shelton & Gwen Stefani's wedding

Blake Shelton and Gwen Stefani married July 3 in a chapel Shelton "built just for the occasion" at his Oklahoma ranch, but the ceremony called back to the beginning of their relationship on NBC singing competition series The Voice.

Carson Daly officiated the wedding. 

The 48-year-old, who has hosted The Voice since its 2011 debut, spilled a respectful amount of tea on Tuesday's (July 6) Today:

"I worked on it for months with them and without them to get the ceremony just how they wanted it," Daly shared. "One of the things, I went to them months ago and said, 'I think you guys should write your own vows. We shouldn't just do the repeat after me.' And they were really reluctant to do that, but they decided to."

He continued:

"At the wedding, Gwen starts, and she wrote this—I mean, like, 'Since I was a little girl...,' bah, bah, bah. And she crushes. Not a dry eye in the church. And it was so perfect that I said to Blake when she was done, I'm like, 'Top that, buddy.' And Blake starts by saying, 'Gwen's always given me a hard time about not writing enough songs, so I wrote a song.' Guitar comes in frame, stool, next thing you know he wrote her a song. And he sings her a song while he's crying that he wrote specifically for her. 'Reach the Star,' I think it was called. Not a dry eye in the house."

Shelton, 45, is the last remaining OG coach on The Voice. The happy couple first met when Stefani, 51, joined the show as a coach for Season 7 in late 2014. (The former No Doubt frontwoman has been on a coach intermittently in seasons 7, 9, 12, 17 and 19.) 

Their respective marriages ended in summer 2015, and their aspirational romance truly began that fall.

The country star and Grammy-winning songstress announced their engagement last October:

Stefani has three sons—15-year-old Kingston, 12-year-old Zuma and seven-year-old Apollo—with her ex-husband, Gavin Rossdale. The boys reportedly had "a large part" in the wedding, and Stefani's Vera Wang gown honored them as well:
