“And it wasn’t even my wedding. It’s the kind of wedding that makes you love your wife even more. You know what I’m saying?” Smith shared.
“Hands down, [it was] one of the five most beautiful moments I’ve ever experienced in my life, and it had nothing to do with me,” said Smith.

“I was crying when I saw the happiest Ben I’ve ever seen,” Smith said, noting he’s been there since the couple got engaged in 2002.
The couple, who rekindled their romance in 2021, “stuck the landing,” Ben claimed.
“They’re so in love. Crazy love, “Smith exclaimed. “Even a hardened cynic would believe in romance at that wedding. They deserved it.”
Smith called the ceremony “profoundly lovely.””
