Here comes the bride—the first time!

Sofia Vergara, 42, may be heading down the aisle again soon—this time, to wed her hunk of a fiancé, Joe Manganiello. But 24 years ago, the Colombian beauty married her childhood sweetheart, Joe Gonzalez, at the tender age of 18, and thanks to photographic evidence, there is proof: She looks like she hasn’t aged a day!

The Modern Family actress headed to the chapel in a classic, embellished white dress, complete with long sleeves, satin gloves, and a veil topped with white posies. But take a good look at her face: Teenage Vergara boasted wide eyes, chiseled cheekbones (bronzed for the day), a plump red pout, and a strong jawline.

Looks like the mom to Manolo, 22, found her signature look at a young age and stuck to it! Spot her on any red carpet (including this Sunday’s Golden Globes) and you’ll see nearly the same bombshell, with the same red-lipped grin and barely a wrinkle in sight.

Sadly, Vergara’s first marriage was not meant to last—the couple divorced in 1993. But the Chef actress has found love again, this time with Manganiello, who proposed to his girlfriend of seven months during a Christmas vacation two weeks ago.
