Congratulations are in order for Fantasia Barrino!

The American Idol winner and her fiancé Kendall Taylor appeared to have followed through with their promise to get married in a special ceremony Saturday evening.

In a variety of photos posted on Instagram, Barrino shared just a few of the many elements that made this weekend so special.

"How do we thank each and everyone who made Our Day one of the most unique and memorable days we will ever share," she wrote on social media. "To those who texted, called, or prayed during this week and up until today... Know that we love you and we know that if we had more capacity you would have been there, but you were still there in spirit... Now... We are The Taylor's.... Here we come!"

News of a possible weekend wedding first hit the Internet last Monday when the singer flaunted her fit figure on social media.

"I know @sosonya15 BOUT TO KILL me today for my Big Wedding Day on SATURDAY OMG!!! I NEVER THOUGHT THIS WOULD HAPPEN FOR ME," she shared. "Im going to stay Tight and Right for him.. Mr. Taylor."

Barrino previously confirmed her engagement to Taylor back in November 2014 when she Instagrammed a pic of her blingtastic ring. Fast-forward to this weekend and the Grammy winner felt extremely blessed to be given such a special day.

"Grandma…This is the day you waited and prayed for just for me," she wrote on Instagram. "I know you're up in heaven right now telling everyone you know and the ones you've met in heaven that your Grand Baby is having a Wedding."

She added, "Today with God and Addie Collins it's going to be a Blessed Day.. I'll be TaylorMade."

Congratulations Fantasia on your special day and here's to many years of happiness!
