Yahoo News “90 Day Fiancé Stars” Sam Wilson and Citra Herani Marry in Farmhouse Wedding: 'We Are Truly One Now' (Exclusive)
"It was the happiest day of our lives," the couple tells PEOPLE of their September 2023 wedding
90 Day Fiancé stars Sam Wilson and Citra Herani have tied the knot!
The pair — who first met on a dating app and appeared on season 10 of the TLC reality series — married in a small wedding at a farmhouse in Cameron, Missouri, on Sept. 10 last year, surrounded by 30 guests.
"We wanted an intimate wedding with both of our families in attendance so we could feel supported and celebrate with our loved ones. We were so happy that both of our parents were able to attend and left their own religious beliefs to the side to celebrate our union wholeheartedly," Herani, who is Muslim, tells PEOPLE.
Having both of their families present when they exchanged their handwritten vows was a top priority for the couple as Herani is from Indonesia and Wilson is from Missouri.

While they admitted that planning their big day was "stressful" — "We had little to no time leading up to it," Wilson explains — they regret nothing of the experience.
"Getting to marry each other in the end made it all worth it!" Herani says.
Wilson's brother served as officiant for the wedding ceremony, which included a Muslim celebration. Herani's mother gave her away in a touching moment.

The bride wore a classic white strapless dress with a simple train, and the groom sported a simple black suit and a red tie.
At the reception, guests enjoyed classic American small bites. "Originally, we wanted to offer Indonesian traditional foods at the wedding, but that was too spicy for us Americans!" jokes Wilson.
The couple chose a 3-tier vanilla wedding cake.
As they reminisce about their wedding, the couple tells PEOPLE it was "the happiest day of our lives."
They say they are looking forward to their next chapter and building a life together. "Getting married means being together by each other’s sides — finally! Not doing long distance anymore makes us so happy. We are truly one now," Herani says.
Wilson is keen for the pair to put down roots together. "It's my dream to buy a nice modern house for Citra," he shares.
