Dearly beloved: Cardi B performed a wedding between two women for the latest episode of her Messenger show Cardi Tries airing Friday
In fact the whole affair was a 'surprise' for one of the brides, Shannon, whom Cardi joked might react by saying: 'I don't wanna get married here!'
Shannon and all the guests were under the impression that the fete was an engagement party and completely unaware that celebrities would be there.
On the way to perform her wedding Cardi looked back on her own secret nuptials to her husband Offset of Migos fame whom she tied the knot with in 2017.
They held a private ceremony in the bedroom with only an officiant and one of Cardi's cousins who could serve as the witness.

Lady in black: Raven-Symone, who is herself married to a woman called Miranda Maday, was a the ring bearer at what Cardi called a 'pop-up' wedding
'I do wish that I have a bigger wedding because I'm like very like flamboyant, so I do want the whole dress and the whole cake and everything,' Cardi confessed.
'I didn't even had a ring so it's like I just didn't felt like I was married 'cause I didn't have the whole shebangabang.'
Brandi, the bride who planned the big surprise, was seen finally asking Shannon to marry her on the spot of the supposed engagement party.
As a matter of fact Shannon is the first woman Brandi even dated and they had been together about three years by the time of the wedding.

What a fete: Shannon and all the guests were under the impression that the fete was an engagement party and completely unaware that celebrities would be there
After Shannon agreed to marry Brandi they both went off separately in order to get ready for the ceremony later that day.
Cardi and Raven were seen having a secret meeting with Brandi where the Bodak Yellow hitmaker proudly held up her 'card to prove' she is an authorized officiant.
When Raven led Brandi in picking out the decor for the reception Cardi was left in tears saying: 'I wanna get married! Again!'
They were even seen helping Brandi pick out the dresses - with Cardi nixing a sequined number because of how it would glare in the sunlight.
Waiting in the wings: Cardi herself was 'nervous' before going on and was wished 'good luck' by Raven before getting to the altar - where Shannon screamed with excitement
So sweet: 'When Shannon saw Cardi B I knew she was going to freak out, freak out!' said Brandi in a confessional to which her new wife said: 'And I did!'
During that meeting Brandi revealed that even Shannon's family were unaware that she was about to get married.
'So when my mom find out that I got married and she wasn't there and I didn't told her she was really freakin' pissed off,' Cardi revealed.
'Yeah my mom was mad too,' said Raven, 'because she wasn't there either and she was like: "You're my only daughter! I missed it!"'
Brandi revealed that her mother 'is not here either today' as 'she does not agree with the lifestyle' but 'did send me a message just wishing me well.'
Breaking the news: At the altar Cardi said: 'You guys are probably wondering why I'm here - I'm gonna get these two beautiful ladies married'
While saying that 'I understand her place and we're both respectable about it' Brandi did get visibly emotional about missing her mother.
As she was being fitted for her wedding dress she reflected that 'You always want those moments where you and your mom get to do this together and pick those moments together. I love her, I have no ill feelings about her not being here. I know she wishes me well, so....'
Cardi's sister Hennessy Carolina is involved with a woman called Michelle Diaz - and Cardi admitted their mother also 'had a tough time in the beginning.'
However their equation has changed and Cardi offered hope to Brandi: 'Maybe, who knows? Maybe one day you could introduce your wife to your mother and just let them spend time, 'cause trust me when I tell you that my mom - I think
