Congratulations are in order for Flea and Melody Ehsani!

The Red Hot Chili Peppers’ bassist, 57, and fashion designer revealed on their respective Instagrams on Tuesday that they had officially tied the knot over the weekend.


Flea, whose real name is Michael Balzary, announced the happy news with a photo from his wedding, showing the pair in their stunning wedding attire, sitting side-by-side on a bench and looking off into the distance.

“My life has changed forever and I am eternally humble and grateful,” he captioned the shot. “The person who sees all of me and knows who I am. My wife @melodyehsani ❤️❤️❤️.”

Ehsani, 39, also celebrated the occasion with a rare post of her new husband on Instagram, which gave fans another view at her gorgeous wedding gown and Flea’s unique tuxedo and footwear.

“This weekend I got to marry my best friend,” she captioned the photo of the couple standing arm-in-arm in front of a brick building.

“Surely, my best collaboration to date 😁☺️” Ehsani joked, before gushing, “you’re my whole heart @flea333 🥰♥️🥰.”

For the big day, Flea wore a lavender tuxedo and paired it with a light green bowtie and matching lime-trimmed sneakers, which seem to resemble the ones that Ehsani recently designed in collaboration with Nike.

As for Ehsani, the designer wore a long-sleeved, form-fitting, sheer gown that featured white floral embellishments and a long train. She also wore her hair in loose curls by her shoulders.

Because the couple have largely kept their romance under wraps, it is not immediately clear when they first started dating and when Flea popped the question, though E! News reports that they’ve only been engaged for close to a month.

Reps for both Flea and Ehsani did not immediately respond to PEOPLE’s request for comment.

This is Flea’s second marriage. The musician was previously married to Loesha Zeviar, with whom he shares 31-year-old daughter, Clara Balzary.

Flea was also previously engaged to model Frankie Rayder, but the pair never married. The former couple share daughter Sunny Bebop Balzary, 13.

"My parents, brother, and I left Iran in 1980, shortly after the revolution. After a brief stay in Italy, we packed all our belongings once again and headed west to the exotic and the unknown: Vancouver. We had recently been accepted as landed immigrants, meaning Canada graciously opened its doors and we gratefully accepted; we arrived at Vancouver International Airport on my 10th birthday, three suitcases and one sewing machine in tow. After respectful but intense questioning at immigration, we were dropped off at a hotel on Robson Street, which was then still a couple years shy of becoming the fashionable tourist hub it is today. We were jetlagged, culture shocked, and hungry, so that first night, my father and brother courageously ventured out into the wild in search of provisions. I fell asleep before they returned. The next morning, I woke up at 5 a.m. and ravenously feasted on a cold Quarter Pounder with cheese and limp French fries that had been left by my beds...
Stacey was a nurse so Kurt knew she would be able to give him a pretty good idea of how critical it was. On the other hand her knowledge of medical jargon could make her words seem foreign to Kurt. “He’s sustained two injuries. The first one was right on impact, his brain was shaken around pretty badly. It might have even rotated and perhaps nerve fibers were stretched and veins and arteries might have torn too. The second one is an open wound where the skull broke. The brain is exposed in that area. He was probably hit by some kind of sharp object during the collision.” Stacey unsuccessfully tried to disguise a horrifying yelp that she let out. “It's possible the area around the wound is undamaged. He might be facing long-term disabilities. He’s lost a lot of blood and his blood pressure has really dropped from the trauma. He’s really weakened by the blood loss. Plus there’s the loss of oxygen to the brain. The damage may be catastrophic. And then there’s infection…” “When w...
