'My mother has always been my best friend and there was no way we weren't going to share our love and celebrate with the biggest supporter and cheerleader in my life.
'When you are living so in the moment, so in the present, it is so important to have beauty and love and happiness around you. This time we had flower girls and dogs and more wonderful friends join us.
'@garbage surprised us with a Scottish wedding twist to this ceremony and it was another perfect day. @gillyflowersla made beautiful arrangements inspired by our New Orleans wedding and who wouldn't want to wear their wedding dress twice!!! @katyakatyalondon @clairepettibone #alzheimers.'
Christina opened up about tying the knot in New Orleans in 2023 and followed through with her plans and said 'I do' to George in the Big Easy on April 20.
The Good Girls star wore a stunning custom lace bridal gown with a high neck, long sleeves and an A-line skirt.
She wore an old fashioned veil with a lace cap over her long, red curls and two silver gray bows in keeping with the vintage nature of the venue.
Bianchini, a camera operator known for his work on the TV series Peripheral and The Right Stuff, looked handsome in a burgundy and cream plaid suit with a pink button down shirt.
Christina penned as she shared the first romantic snap of the wedding: 'On Saturday April 20, 2024 I married George Bianchini. It was the most beautiful weekend of my life. Thank you to all of our friends and family for joining us.'

The couple exchanged vows at Napoleon House in the French Quarter.
The venue got its name as it was once offered as a place of refuge for Napoleon Bonaparte during his exile from France.
The Emmy nominee told people seeing the dress for the first time made her cry 'because it was so beautiful.'
Garbage lead singer Shirley Manson officiated the ceremony and the couple exchanged their own vows.
Among the 76 guests who witnessed the ceremony were Mad Men creator Matt Weiner, Good Girls co-stars Retta and Mae Whitman along with designer Christian Siriano.
After the ceremony, The Buccaneers star and her new husband indulged in the New Orleans tradition of a second line, leading their guests on a jazzy parade on the streets carrying parasols and umbrellas.
The reception included a sit-down dinner filled with decadent fare that included steak and shrimp and grits, with muffuletta for a late-night snack.
In lieu of a wedding cake, they chose individual Bananas Foster for their guests, flambéed for each guest right at the table. Bananas Foster is the Solar Opposites actress' favorite dessert.

Festivities for the three-day destination wedding weekend included a welcome cocktail party at the Soniat House, followed by a ghost tour of the French Quarter.
The couple met on the set of the crime dramady Good Girls, which Hendricks starred in from 2018-2021. They began dating in 2020 and proposed to each other in March 2023.
The pair chose New Orleans for several reasons, including their selecting the city as a rendezvous point when they were working and living on different sides of the country.
'It just feels like our city together, even though we both loved it individually,' she explained.
