And wedding guests dined on burrata caprese, bolognese pasta, roasted fish, two wedding cakes and more.
The Bachelor alum and Mike first met by chance in 2016.
"I was walking into a restaurant with my daughter, and he happened to be walking out with a group of friends. I didn't see him, but apparently, he saw me and asked his friends if any of them knew me," Michelle recalled.
"They happened to know a mutual friend who ended up giving Mike my number. We went on our first date and never looked back! I didn't find out until months later that after he saw me at that restaurant for the first time, he couldn't stop thinking about me, so he left his friend's house and drove back to the restaurant to try and find me, but I had already left!"

But as the pair got to know each other and date, they apparently agreed not to get married.
"We spent the first five years of our relationship with the understanding that we would never get married," Michelle said.
"He was my forever boyfriend and vice versa. After my daughter Brielle got into a really bad longboarding accident where she almost lost her life, I started seeing things differently."
Brielle reportedly spent 26 days in a coma in the hospital after suffering a traumatic brain injury in 2020.
"It became so clear to me that Mike was more to me than just a forever boyfriend," Michelle explained.
"He was the most incredible support to me and Brielle through the hardest time of my life. It brought us closer together in a way I had never experienced, and marriage seemed like a beautiful commitment that I wanted to make to him. Now we can't believe we considered not getting married. He truly is the love of my life!"

Mike proceeded to pop the question in January during the couple's trip to New Zealand.
"We took a helicopter to the top of a glacier where the most incredible glacier lake was. He got down on a knee and asked me to marry him there on the glacier. It was incredible," Michelle said.
Michelle found fame when she competed on The Bachelor's fifteenth season starring Brad Womack in 2011.
When that relationship didn't work out, Michelle appeared on Bachelor in Paradise's first season. She got involved with Cody Sattler, a personal trainer from Andi Dorfman's The Bachelorette season, in Summer 2014, but they had a tumultuous on-again, off-again romance.

Michelle and Cody split in December 2014 but reignited their flame shortly before appearing on Marriage Boot Camp: Reality Stars.
Michelle was a single mom and hairstylist -- who also worked as a model and actress on the side -- at the time she joined The Bachelor cast. She was best remembered for "hot" and seductive looks, being "in it to win it," and making catty comments on the show.
Michelle told Reality TV World in February 2011, "I was definitely there for the right reason... I don't know about the other girls, but I went on the show to find love. I made it very clear that if I felt there wasn't a connection with Brad, that I needed to go home, but I did feel a connection with Brad, and I felt like the connection was reciprocated."
She continued, "I felt like he felt the same way, and so absolutely I went for it. And I think if you don't, I think you're doing yourself a disservice. I think that's exactly why you should be there. You should be there to win it. That's what you want and you should feel like that's the purpose of the show."
Michelle continued in her interview with Reality TV World, "I was 'in it to win it,' but I was 'in it to win it' based on the feelings that I was feeling and based on the way that he felt about me."
Michelle then looked for lasting love on Season 2 of Bachelor Pad, but she was unsuccessful.
