Michael Buble has married his fiancee Luisana Lopilato

The ‘Haven’t Met You Yet’ hitmaker – who has been dating the actress since 2008 – tied the knot with the Argentinean beauty in a civil ceremony in Buenos Aires earlier today (31.03.11).

While the nuptials were relatively low-key, the couple happily posed for a mob of fans after the wedding before Luisana – dressed in a violet gown – tossed her bouquet of pruple orchids into the crowd.

It is believed the couple, who announced their engagement in January, will be hosting a larger ceremony for 300 guests at a mansion outside the Argentinean city next month.

In addition to the pair’s South American nuptials, Canadian-born Michael recently announced plans to host a second wedding in Vancouver.

He said: “We are doing one in Argentina and that’s for her close family, and then we are doing one in Vancouver.”

However, the 35-year-old star – who previously dated actress Emily Blunt – joked the pair had originally planned on tying the knot on April 29, but was concerned the royal wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton would overshadow his nuptials.

Michael explained: “I was going to do it on the 29th but I figured I wouldn’t get any press.”

Michael Buble doesn’t think he is sexy

The Canadian singer – who is set to tie the knot with Argentinean actress Luisana Lopilato on April 6 2011 – says he is never approached by women and can only see his self-deprecating sense of humour as the reason why people would fall for him.

He said: “They don’t approach me and I don’t think I’m sexy. “If there is anything sexy about me maybe it’s that I’m a goof and I don’t take myself seriously. Isn’t that kind of sexy? If you just take the p**s out of yourself a bit.“I don’t think sexy is, ‘Hi, nice to meet you.’ I sing beautiful songs and I mean what I say.”

Michael split from his previous girlfriend Emily Blunt in 2008 amid rumours of his infidelity and he revealed their break-up taught him to be careful about discussing his love life. He said: “I learned a lot and from now on my private life remains that. I’m not saying you have to be rude about it when people ask, but I just decline to speak about my love life.”

Peter also represented artists including The Eagles, Andrea Bocelli and Michael Buble. The law firm where Peter was a co-founder, Kleinberg Lopez Lange Cuddy and Klein also spoke of their shock.

The Canadian crooner says he was so intimidated when he first met Argentian actress Luisana Lopilato at one of his concerts last November that he spent the night talking to her male friend instead.

He told Britain’s The Sun newspaper: “I don’t speak Spanish and she had no English. But the guy did so I just spoke to him. I was a bit nervous because of how beautiful she was.

“I later found out she was on the phone to her mother the whole time saying, ‘Buble’s gay. He’s hitting on my friend’.”

After finding out that Luisana was single, Michael, 34, asked her out and the couple have been together ever since – much to the unhappiness of the 22-year-old beauty’s devotees.

Michael admitted: “I get the feeling some people – perhaps her fans – don’t like me. The media there have said terrible things about me.”

The actor – who broke up with ‘The Young Victoria’ actress Emily Blunt in 2008 amid rumours of his infidelity – had previously said he found it difficult dating other performers.

He said: “You’re never together. You’re lucky if you can see the person once every two to three months.”
