Michael Oher, a football player, just got married.

On November 5, a former professional football player whose life was the basis for the movie The Blind Side, which was nominated for an Academy Award, married the woman he has loved for a long time, Tiffany Roy, at the JW Marriott in Nashville, Tennessee.

“The most magical part was our vows,” Roy tells PEOPLE exclusively. “To hear Mike express his feelings in front of 200-plus people was astonishing and romantic. I really felt like a true Queen.”

They also have a son named MJ and two daughters named Kierstin and Naivi. After the unity sand ceremony, the couple’s son Kobi walked Roy down the aisle to Beyonce’s song “Halo,” where she joined Oher and said her own vows. The couple’s other children are MJ, Kierstin, and Naivi.

Roy will always remember and cherish the moment she walked down the aisle for the first time after their wedding.

“For a few seconds, my mind was cloudy,” Roy says. “Everything was moving so fast that I could not hear or focus on my own thoughts.”

“Until I felt my dress get caught on my shoe, which prevented me from walking,” she adds. “That’s when everything became clear. I heard my son ask me, “Are you ready?’ and I said ‘Of course I am, I’ve been waiting a long time for this magical day.’ It was filled with so much joy, excitement, and happiness.”

Roy and Tiffanie Elliott, a wedding planner, and a designer, worked together to turn the hotel’s ballroom into a scene from heaven by draping it in white and adding blue accents, glass elements, 8-foot-tall flower arrangements, and crystals.

Elliot says that Roy’s love of feathers was reflected in the invitations, decorations, cake, and even her ÉLYSÉE by Enzoani wedding dress.

“Tiffany and Michael, 36, have been together for 17 years, so she wanted the guests to be met with an experience that was ‘worth the wait,’” says Elliott of the couple who originally met at the administration building of the University of Mississippi.
