"Seeing her for the first time -- we didn't do a first look -- and seeing her [walk down the aisle] in her dress, [I started crying]," the 30-year-old Bachelor in Paradise alum told Us, although he had been anticipating he "for sure" keep it together.
"Ever since that moment, I've realized how important she is to me. I mean, to cry in front of lifelong friends and family and everything, I've never loved her as much as I do today."
Christina said while she started the day "so calm" and "relaxed," she "literally lost it" when walking down the aisle with her father.
"I just couldn't stop crying," said Christina, who ended up picking a gown that was "completely the opposite" of what she initially thought she wanted.

An hour before Christina walked down the aisle, she and Jordan had exchanged love letters.
“I chuckled, I cried, I smirked," Jordan said of his bride's note.
And Christina shared, "It was so hard not to cry the entire time, just from pure joy."
Christina reportedly walked down the aisle to Divisi Strings' cover of Elvis Presley's "Can't Help Falling in Love," and the couple decided to do traditional vows. Their first dance as man and wife was set to "When You Say Nothing At All" by Allison Krauss.
Guests dined on a "delicious" almond cake with raspberry filling and buttercream.

And the couple's reception concluded with a sweet "anniversary" dance on the black and white dance floor for married couples, including Christina's grandparents, who have been married for 73 years.
Jordan and Christina are now headed to Hawaii for their honeymoon.
"This past year, we built a house, closed on that this summer. With the wedding planning, it's just been, like, 'Wow, we got through it.' And the fact that we still got married after all that, it's a beautiful thing," Jordan joked with the magazine.
Jordan proposed marriage to Christina with a 2.35 oval-cut diamond ring before Christmas Eve mass with her family in December 2020 at Christina's church in Texas. And of course she said "yes!"

Jordan began dating Christina in 2019 after they met at Los Angeles International airport and Jordan helped her with her luggage. The pair went Instagram official in November of that year.
Jordan said while Christina initially moved to Florida for him, they ultimately decided to move to Texas together for his fiancee's job.
"It feels like it happened so fast. I was blindsided by this love. She's just the sweetest person... I can't handle how sweet, genuine and how true her heart is," Jordan gushed to Us.
"I feel like I'm a protector. I'm here to support her."
Jordan found fame when he competed on Becca Kufrin's season of The Bachelorette in 2018.
After failing to win Becca's heart, Jordan got engaged to Jenna Cooper on Bachelor in Paradise's fifth edition, however Jordan and Jenna broke up shortly after the Paradise finale aired, and then Jordan later returned to Mexico for Bachelor in Paradise's sixth season in 2019.
Jordan didn't last long on the beach due to a physical altercation he had with cast member Christian Estrada.
Jordan said of his relationship with his new wife, "We always share different kind of perspectives, but coming from The Bachelor to this, I would say that The Bachelor kind of prepared me in a way that I was ready to take it seriously."
"I was ready to be funny and be who I am -- and especially after seeing myself on TV, there's parts of, you know, what I did that I got great joy out of and laughed at."
Jordan admitted, "I'm not my biggest fan, but you can grow from anything. And I think that that's what I've done, grown from it."
