The Ultimatum season 2 stars Roxanne Kaiser and Antonio Mattei tied the knot in a beautiful Persian wedding on October 26, 2024, in Chateau Elan, Atlanta. The couple got engaged during the show's finale, which was filmed in 2022 and aired in 2023. The couple was together for a good four years. However, their relationship had gone through a rocky stage, as Roxanne had held off on marriage.

Antonio Mattei gave Roxanne an ultimatum on the show, and they eventually got married. The Ultimatum: Marry or Move On comes with a unique format, as it allows the couple to put their relationship to the ultimate test. The show goes through different stages to make or break the couples.

Antonio and Roxanne had their ups and downs and did not go through the whole process smoothly. They also paired with other people during "The Choice Ceremony" but eventually realized that they were meant to be together. The couple also opened up about their fears, insecurities, and vulnerabilities, which helped them form a stronger bond.

Roxanne Kaiser was fearful of marriage when she entered The Ultimatum with Antonio, but they wanted to give it all before reaching any conclusion. The couple had various issues including financial stability, different views on the future, their emotional stability, and all the responsibility that comes with marriage. However, Antonio was firm that it was now or never, and gave Roxanne the ultimatum to marry or move on.

Season 2 of The Ultimatum was released on Netflix in August 2023, and the couple got engaged during the finale putting all their inhibition to rest. As the couple believed their story was one of a kind, they decided to take the plunge and get married. The Netflix duo tied the knot in the presence of their family and friends in an intimate wedding, where the couple enjoyed both American tradition and Persian rituals.

Roxanne Kaiser opened up about the nitty-gritty of her Persian-styled wedding and told People magazine exclusively about her favorite moment. She said:

"What I love most is the rich symbolism. Each item on the Sofreh Aghd represents aspects of the couple's new life and marriage together. For instance, our Sofreh Aghd will include rock candy, symbolizing a sweet life, and a large mirror representing light and brightness for our future."

She further added:

"There's also a beautiful moment where we dip our pinky fingers in honey and share it with each other, signifying sweetness for our future together."

The couple opted for a soft and neutral palette with shades of white as their wedding theme, and Roxanne mentioned that her inspiration for the look was "moody, edgy Madonna". The couple also mentioned that they were planning a post-wedding hangout party.

Roxanne was sure that she wanted a simple and intimate wedding where all of her loved ones could gather together and celebrate the biggest day of her life. Roxanne spoke to People about her fear of commitment:

"Honestly, marriage was the furthest thing from my thoughts. I think any entrepreneur would agree that, whether or not you believe in the institution, wedding planning simply doesn’t take precedence when there are so many other pressing responsibilities. This doesn’t mean I’m any less committed to or in love with Antonio. It just means it wasn’t the first item on my to-do list each day."

The Ultimatum season 1 and 2 are available on Netflix.
