The actor said last Friday that they are currently enjoying the happiness that being newly married gives them.
For the fifth time, the actor married Nicolas Cage, 57, and this time he wanted it with his girlfriend Riko Shibata, 26, as confirmed by the famous Daily Mail newspaper.
The wedding was at the Wynn Las Vegas Resort and Country Club on February 16, a special date for the groom as it was his late father’s birthday.
The actor told the newspaper last Friday that they are currently enjoying the happiness that being newly married brings them: “It is true and I am very happy.” Cage’s previous marriage was to Erika Koike and lasted only four days.
Riko Shibata is Japanese and according to tradition the young bride used an all-white shiromuku for the wedding, adorned with a black uchikake, the lower part of which is padded in three layers to give it more volume. He put on Japanese sandals with red accents (the color of happiness) and white socks.

Her bouquet was of yellow and red roses, which were the perfect contrast to her lipstick lipstick. The only thing he didn’t follow with Japanese protocol was his hair: Shibata preferred to wear it loose and not with the kanzashi (hairstyle with golden details that takes up to three days to complete).

For his part, Cage opted for the more traditional, a black Tom Ford tuxedo, wearing a yellow rose in the buttonhole, matching his girlfriend’s bouquet. To walk down the aisle, Riko chose to play her favorite song, Kiroro’s ‘Winter Song,’ after which they exchanged vows and traditional Shinto with poetry from Walt Whitman and Haiku.
According to the Daily Mail, the now-spouses returned to a hotel after the ceremony for a private party attended by Cage’s third ex-wife, Alice Kim, and their son Kal-El.

That newspaper also obtained the marriage certificate from the state of Nevada and there it can be seen that the bride took his last name, which is why she is now Riko Cage, who is four years younger than the first child by Nicolas, Weston according to other data.
The famous actor had already announced his engagement to Riko last March. “We are very happy together and we are very excited to spend that time together, so I ended up saying, ‘Look, I want to marry you,’ and we got engaged on FaceTime. I have a black diamond engagement ring for her. His favorite color is black, so he wanted gold and black diamond. I customized it and sent it to him by FedEx, “he revealed in a radio interview.
