While Union goes online to show off her admiration for the retired athlete, Wade often gushes on his beautiful wife, whom he has known for more than a decade. They have been married for six years.

To celebrate their wedding anniversary this year, the actress shared an emotional post on Instagram that showed a series of pictures turned into a slideshow. The pictures were a reflection of shared moments from their wedding day up until their sixth anniversary.

No woman would be quick to forget a wedding ceremony that magnificent. Neither would a celebrity wedding go unnoticed as their wedding made a buzz in the media.

Wade and his bride were the stars of the day on August 30, 2014. The couple was dressed to the nines as they enjoyed their union at the Chateau Artisan Castle in Miami.

The bride was adorned in a Dennis Basso strapless ball gown wedding dress while Wade's outfit was put together by "Dsquare2".

It took a few more years before Wade proposed to his lover.

From the stunning performances from A-list artists and attendance of top-notch socialites to the attires rocked by the bride and groom, the Union-Wade ceremony was every shade of glamour and perfection.

Union once shared a post last year reminiscing their wedding ceremony and gushed about how she had the best time at their wedding.

She further mentioned how happy she has been and asked her friends and fans to share their stories if they attended her wedding.
