"It was really important to me that the women in my family pray over me. I have amazing women in my life and they've been through so much. They're strong and they're kind and they're good to people. If I could be half of the wife that those women are, I would be so blessed," Bailon said. "I think keeping God at the center of everything that we do is so important."

The happy bride also talked about her decision to abstain from sex until their wedding night, saying, "it gives you time to think and find other ways to connect."
