Safaree and Erica Mena’s wedding was everything ‘fabulouso’. They tied the knot in a lavish ceremony at The Legacy Castle in New Jersey last year in October. The Love and Hip Hop stars repping Jamaican 🇯🇲 Dominican and Puerto Rican 🇩🇴🇵🇷 heritage are one of our fave celebrity couples and we rooting for them. The true love that transpires between them is so strong you could feel it from anywhere. Safaree adores Erica so much and vice versa you could feel every trickle of tear filled with true emotions and adoration during their wedding vows.
The love birds officially released their wedding photos and video via Instagram and everyone’s being excited about the whole look of the ceremony. The wedding had it all, from someone cutting onions at the wedding venue to their first look reaction, the slay bridal party, the red floral themed wedding decor, the wedding performance, what not! Safaree’s sister, author and nutritionist Shaneequewa Samuels who stood beside her “twin” as the best man looking all dapper in a red bespoke suit by @mr_andre_clarke_womack posted:
WHEN BROOKLYNS FINEST GET TOGETHER FOR A KING WEDDING ITS A ZOOOOOVIE #MCM Lady in Red=“BEST WOMAN”
#booklynstandup! Hands down the best wedding I’ve been a part of and honored to be standing by my twin’s side at a moment like this. When love is true, real and 2 people are vibrating at the same frequency, nothing and no one can tear them apart. There will always be noise and disturbances but keep vibrating equally and you won’t hear or feel anything that isn’t within your frequency/range ❤️ – @neequa_09
The beautiful Dominican Puerto Rican queen Erica who’s pregnant and expecting a baby girl looked absolutely breathtaking and divine in her custom Ryan & Walter wedding gown styled by the award winning Bridal Stylist Selina Howard of Vainglorious Brides.

We worked in tandem with Ryan and Walter to ensure that the dress was fitted just right for the baby bump. Can you even tell?! Thank you Erica for trusting #teamvaingloriousbrides with your bridal fashion experience and thank you to my amazing team @vaingloriousbrides_candace @vaingloriousbrides_vanessa and @akelaknowlestafra #styled by @VaingloriousBrides.
One of our fave moment from the wedding was their First look reaction to Safaree seeing his queen for the first time on the wedding day. His reaction blew us away as Safaree was overwhelmed with tears of joy and emotion.
