The son of Eddie Van Halen and Valerie Bertinelli wed his fiancée Andraia Allsop surrounded by 90 guests at their home in Los Angeles on Sunday, Oct. 15, sharing all the exclusive details with PEOPLE.
The couple, who have been together for eight years, (their wedding date, Oct. 15, matched their first-date anniversary which was on Oct. 15, 2015) tell PEOPLE they were excited to have a night of their loved ones coming together.
"Our goal was just to bring all of our closest family and friends together," says Andraia. "The past few years, not only with the world, but also with personal tragedies, haven't been the easiest, but we wanted to create this wedding as a celebration not only just for us to get married, but a celebration for the people we love."
The ceremony took place inside the couple's living room, a space where they could "have privacy and just have our moment together with everyone," says Andraia. The reception followed outside in the backyard with string lights and florals.
One of Wolfgang's closest family friends, whom the 32-year-old says he's known for "almost three decades at this point," officiated the wedding. "He's the dad of one of my best men and he's just an important guy in our life," Wolfgang says.
The ceremony was decorated with a display of stunning stained-glass windows — the same backdrop that Lady Gaga used in one of her performances, as well as dusty rose and mauve-colored flowers.
The Mammoth WVH frontman, who wore a custom three-piece black suit for the event, walked down the aisle with his mom to a song that his father Eddie, who died from throat cancer at age 65, wrote for him. "The song that my father had written for me, it's an instrumental piece called 316. It'll be a nice way to include my dad," he says.
Bertinelli says seeing her son get married is a beautiful gift. "It brings me such a nice sense of peace knowing Wolfie and Andraia have each other for the rest of their lives," she tells PEOPLE. "They really ‘get’ one another. Their humor is very similar, they like similar things, they know how to give each other space and they’re just so comfortable together."
Andraia walked down the aisle with her father to Dean Martin's "Everybody Loves Somebody." "Dean Martin is one of my favorite performers, and I was like, 'Oh, that's a perfect song. I need a Dean Martin song,' " she tells PEOPLE of her choice.
She also made the unique decision to have her grandmothers as the flower girls. "Back in March, my grandfather passed away, but when he and my grandma got married early 1990s, I was about 3, and so I was their flower girl," she shares. "So I thought it would be fitting and just a nice little moment to have my mom's mom and my dad's mom be our flower girls."
Andraia wore an Eva Lendel dress that featured sheer long sleeves with lace detail and a V-neck. "My goal was just to be able to be comfortable throughout the whole day and the whole night," she shares. "It's a long dress, not a big train, but hits the floor with lace and some beading detail."
The couple wrote their own vows and also made sure to honor their loved ones who weren't able to be with them on their special day.
"One of the things that I really wanted was a way to bring Wolf's dad into it," says Andraia. "We'll be having an empty chair that would've been his at the ceremony."
"We cleared out all the bookshelves and we've just lined the shelves with photos of our family, our loved ones, people who've passed, people who couldn't make it," she adds, as Wolfgang shares, "We've lost important family members on both sides, so it's important to include them and have them be a part of the ceremony that we wish they were here for."
Andraia also shares that she hand made "little memory charms with a picture of Wolfie and his dad on it" as a surprise for everyone with boutonnieres, corsages or bouquets so that everyone is able to "think of him throughout the day."
