And it seemed that Mario Lopez and his new bride Courtney Mazza couldn't wait to step out for the first time as husband and wife as they posed on the red carpet at The X Factor viewing party on Thursday night.
Beaming from ear-to-ear as they flashed their platinum bands towards the camera, the newlyweds looked the picture of happiness as as they cuddled up to each other.

Thursday night's X Factor viewing party
And marriage certainly seems to be suiting them down to the ground; with Courtney looking positively radiant as she showed off her newlywed glow.
Mario opted for a dapper navy blue pinstripe suit as he joined his X Factor co-stars on the red carpet, while his new bride showed off her slim figure in black skinny jeans and a sheer leopardprint blouse.

Standing on a floor of white with their union perfectly framed underneath an ornate gazebo, the pair tied the knot in front of their nearest and dearest just before sunset.
Girls Gone Wild founder Joe Francis loaned the couple his stunning $30m estate for their special day, with Eva Longoria among the celebrity guests.
The couple's cute little girl Gia served as the flower girl and walked down the aisle with her mother and father after the ceremony.
Courtney wore an Ines Di Santo gown, while Mario looked dapper in his wedding suit.

There was also an impressive six-tied cake, which the couple were seen standing next to with glasses of champagne at the ready.

Impressive: The couple prepare to cut their cake, which stood tall with a total of six tiers
'Me and mama reading for @MarioLopezExtra and @CLMazza wedding! So excited for the beautiful couple!!' she wrote.

The actress later admitted she couldn't breathe, but was satisfied that at least 'the dress looks good!!!' after worrying it wouldn't work.
The television star, 39, popped the question over New Year's weekend last year in Ixtapa, Mexico.
'We took a walk alone as the sun was setting,' he told UsWeekly after the proposal.
'I told Courtney that I wanted the mother of my children to have their last name. She was silent at first from shock, then she leaped for joy and did a little jete!'
She added: 'Besides our daughter's birth, this was the best moment of my life!'

It is the first marriage for Mazza, and Lopez's second.
He was previously married to Ali Landry in 2004 in Mexico but their marriage was annulled two weeks later due to his infidelities.
Mario admitted that he cheated at his bachelor party days before their wedding.
'At that point I was not ready to settle down,' he told Us. 'I wasn't man enough to know how to go about handling it.'
He explained that days after their wedding a horrified Landry confronted him after being shown a photo of him in a compromising position with a woman at the party.
Lopez' nuptials with Mazza are due to air on TLC network on December 8.
