Wallace wore a tuxedo by famed suit designer Mitch Purgason of Stitched by Mitch.

Purgason custom designed the dark wine tuxedo jacket and cashmere and silk pants which included a hidden message inside.

"Every suit that I make Bubba I include 'Est 1993' the year he was born embroidered somewhere hidden either on his pants or his jacket," he stated.

Wallace and his crew looked sharp in pristinely tailored tuxedos that were designed in Italy and made from an ombre textured wool manufactured from the same mill that makes the James Bond suits.

In addition to his birth year, the NASCAR driver's bespoke suits always have another intricate detail, and his wedding tux was no different.

"I also feature a Milanese tri-colored buttonhole. Something that can only be done by hand, and that's usually a gradient of the color that he is wearing," Purgason told PEOPLE.

The newlyweds share their first dance at the reception which was also held at the JW Marriott. Unlike the ceremony whose decor was whimsical and romantic, the couple wanted the reception to be more vibrant.

"We wanted the ceremony, (which was held on the hotel's 4th floor) to be formal, and then as soon as you walk down the staircase to the reception, we wanted the whole mood to flip," Carter told PEOPLE.

"The flowers are changing from white to vibrant with pinks, purples, reds, with a lot of sparkle and shine in the room. We wanted the reception to feel like a New Year's Eve party."

When it came to dining, the pair didn't go the traditional seated dinner route either. Instead, they had four different tapas-style stations with Italian, Asian stir fry, burgers and tacos so guests can pick and choose.

"We're not doing a seated dinner with over 200 people," Carter told PEOPLE. "We wanted to make sure that we have time to see everybody. And a seated dinner really can take away from being able to talk to everybody."

And because it was New Year's Eve, the couple wanted to make sure the music was right for the occasion.

"We were on a road trip recently, and the entire four-and-a-half-hour car ride we just went through and picked songs," stated Carter. Their wedding playlist included classics, '90s hits, hip hop and EDM.

"I love dancing. It's got to be the right vibe," emphasized Wallace.

"Getting married, and starting a new life together, I'm just so excited to have a good one in my corner," Wallace gushed to PEOPLE. "We have so much fun together."

The newlyweds will be honeymooning in Bora Bora before Wallace goes back to racing in February.
