The couple exchanged vows, in American Sign Language, almost exactly three years after meeting on Season 31 of Dancing with the Stars.
"I never could imagine what my wedding would be like and it still feels a little bit like a dream, but it's real," Daniel told People.
Although Britt was "never the little girl" who had big dreams about her wedding, she said the goal was to make it feel like "an abundance of love" connecting everyone at the event.
Among the 110 wedding guests were Dancing with the Stars judge Derek Hough and his wife Hayley Erbert, Dancing with the Stars host Alfonso Ribeiro and co-host Julianne Hough, and show pros Jenna Johnson, Rylee Arnold, Ezra Sosa, Emma Slater, Alan Bersten, Daniella Karagach, Brandon Armstrong, and Witney Carson.
Hayley served as Britt's maid of honor, while the bride's Season 29 Dancing with the Stars partner, Johnny Weir, was also a member of the bridal party.
Britt walked down the aisle in a satin dress with a cinched waist and a train to "528 Hz Love Frequency." She began the walk alone and then was joined by both of her parents.
At the reception, the newlyweds' first dance as husband and wife was to "Forever and a Day" by Benson Boone because they "both felt so aligned with the words" of the song.
One of Britt and Daniel's love languages is food, and so they also made sure to have an impressive spread.
Wedding guests dined on a beautiful charcuterie board as well as oysters, caviar, sushi and tacos.
Britt's "gluten-free dreams" also came true with the couple's long, rectangular cake made with fresh fruit and flowers. Signature cocktails were also named after their beloved cats, Hudson and Orlando.

Britt and Daniel's nuptials kicked off with a "garden party meets Italian summer" welcome party on Friday, August 22.
"I love Britt's soul the most, that she is a strong leader and her sense of humor. If I fall, I know she will be the first to catch me," Daniel gushed of his now-wife.
And Britt pointed out how she is the "yin to his yang" in life.
"My soul has been waiting for his! I love that he is unique in every way possible and will surprise me every day for the rest of my life," Britt told the magazine.
"I will never be bored with him and I need that! Our life together brings me so much joy. Daniel calms my nervous system and he is home."
Britt and Daniel had met on the set of Dancing with the Stars in late August 2022.
After placing fifth in the ABC reality dancing competition, they fell in love off-camera and publicly debuted their romance on Valentine's Day in 2023.
Daniel proposed marriage to Britt during the Christmas holiday that same year. He had popped the question during a nature hike in Lake Arrowhead, CA.

"And then that's how we fell into dating. So I think it was that foundation of friendship that really set the stage for our relationship, and my hope is that will continue through our marriage."
As for what's next, Daniel and the pro dancer said they hope the universe will show them "when the time is right" to start a family.
"The next chapter for us is all about growth and building," Britt shared.
"We really want to continue to evolve as individuals but prioritize our family and what we are creating together. That means everything... a family, a home, etc. We also want this next chapter to allow us to enjoy each other too. Have fun, life is short!"
Britt has competed on five seasons of Dancing with the Stars as a pro partner, but she never placed higher than fifth with Daniel.
