We can’t think of a better way to spend Father’s Day than celebrating the joyous occasion of a wedding and that’s exactly what LL Cool J and his family did this weekend when his daughter, Italia Smith, tied the knot this past Saturday.

LL’s wife Simone shared this beautiful daddy-daughter moment on Instagram last night, announcing Italia’s nuptials and declaring her husband “the best daddy in the world.”

This morning, LL followed with a pic of his eldest daughter preparing to the cut the cake with the groom, using the exact emojis you’d expect from a father still getting acclimated to the fact that his baby girl is now a wife.

The wedding took place in Long Island, with the reception following at Sparkling Point Vineyards and winery in Southold. A number of celebrity friends attended the festivities, including Mary J. Blige, Monica, Niecy Nash, and Bill Bellamy.

Italia graduated from the Northeastern D’Amore Mckim School of Business with a Bachelors of Science in Business Administration and works as a very successful licensed real estate agent in New York City. Her husband, Lamar Cardinez, also received a BS in Business Administration from Northeastern and is currently an Incoming Investment Banking Summer Associate at Guggenheim Partners.
