They were both well-dressed for the occasion. Cooper kept it simple with a dark-colored tux and a gray tie, accessorized with a silver watch.

Melissa wore a black Brunello Cucinelli two-piece: a sleeveless top with intricate detailing on the front and a mesh maxi skirt paired with heels.

"I am one lucky mom. I have an incredible son who I am so proud of. Thanks Cooper for putting up with me and letting me still do your laundry," she captioned the video.

The comment section buzzed with compliments and well-wishes, with many mentioning Melissa's late mother, Joan Rivers—who passed in September 2014.

"Love this mother-son dance! Joan would be so proud of this moment!" one person wrote.

"I just know Joan is smiling down on you both. Her love for you and Cooper was so evident in everything she did," another said. "✨ JOAN IS BEAMING!!! ✨" exclaimed a fan.

"He's so handsome. I know your mom is watching ovrr both of you & your new hubby [sic]," another added.

Melissa shared similar sentiments about Joan in an interview last year. "I wish she could see or know about what a solid person he's become and still becoming," she said of Cooper.

"He's smart, he's funny, he's kind. He has empathy," she added. The actress shares her son with her ex-husband John Endicott.

At the time, she had just become engaged to attorney Steve Mitchel, with whom she recently tied the knot. The nuptials, covered exclusively by People, took place at the Four Seasons in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
