Celebrity weddings have become a more private (read: totally secret) affairs as of late, Kardasho-Jenners notwithstanding. Though one imagines it's far more preferable than having pesky news helicopters circling above like when Madonna married Sean Penn, there is one way to circumvent the tabloids entirely and still get to show off the fanciest details of your fabulous celebrity wedding: Instagram.

In a series of posts spanning many, many thumb-scrolls, Modern Family actress Sofia Vergara shared dozens of photos from her marriage to Joe Manganiello in Palm Beach, Florida over the weekend. There were celebrities — Channing Tatum, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Reese Witherspoon, and most of the cast of Modern Family were all reportedly in attendance. There were adorable napkins. There was even a surprise performance from Pitbull (welcome to Florida, where Pitbull randomly shows up sometimes).

But more than any of those things, there were flowers. So, so, so many flowers. More flowers than an actual rainforest and a botanical garden put together. More flowers than on the heads of 21-year-olds at Coachella.

For example, this was the ceremony space:

And of course Sofia carried the fanciest flowers of them all, orchids:
