On July 1, 2025, she shared four snapshots from her wedding album. The first snapshot has her close-up picture. She is wearing a white floral off-shouldered wedding dress. Cardoso decorated the dress with a thin diamond necklace, mid-length diamond earrings, a queen’s crown, and a diamond bracelet. Her makeup was subtle with red lipstick and highlighted kohl. She leaves her long, wavy, brown blonde hair open. Her pose? She gives off her gentle smile while holding her necklace in her hands.
