Tara Costa and John Baranowski are married! The Biggest Loser contender and her new husband made it official Saturday in New York.
The runner-up behind winner Helen Phillips in Season 7, Costa lost 155 pounds (seriously), flaunting her new figure in front of 185 guests.
She said of the emotional nuptials:
"I am not the person who has dreamt of this day since I was little girl and to be honest I never thought I would be the one to find that special person.
"But today is a HUGE day for me and probably one of the most important days of my entire life. I get to marry my best friend, John."
"He’s the reason for so much happiness in my life."
"We’ve chosen to live this life together, because there’s no one else in the entire world we would rather do it with."
Just days before the wedding, the fitness enthusiast and physical education teacher couldn’t stop smiling on social media.
"I am feeling very grateful and blessed as I start this new chapter in my life!" Costa said on Facebook. "The Future Mrs. XoXo."
Sounds like the guests had a blast as well.
"The bride and groom with the @BiggestLoserNBC family," former contestant Jackson Whitt wrote on Instagram while posing with them.
"I’ll have to say that it’s rare to see two people as happy with each other as Tara and John. They really are a perfect match."
