Bad Bunny just made history by becoming the first musician to perform entirely in Spanish at a Super Bowl - and fans are still obsessing over his set.

On Sunday (8 February) the 31-year-old Puerto Rican rapper brought the house down at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, where he performed a 14-minute-long medley of his biggest hits.

From 'Tití Me Preguntó' to 'MONACO' and 'BAILE INoLVIDABLE,' the musician treated fans to the best of his discography, as well as including guest performances from Lady Gaga and Ricky Martin.

More than 120 million people around the world tuned in to watch Bad Bunny perform - because let's face it, the Super Bowl is really about the music.

Since the show, fans have been re-watching the set and picking out Easter eggs including nods to Puerto Rican culture and a sweet reference to the singer's Grammys win.

In case it all feels like a bit of a blur, we've rounded up some of the key moments you might've missed.

The real wedding ceremony

This one was actually quite difficult to miss - there was a real life wedding ceremony that took place during Bad Bunny's set.

Roughly five minutes in, the cameras panned to cameras panned to the bride and groom as an officiant said in Spanish: "I declare you husband and wife, you can kiss the bride."

The newlyweds then stepped apart to reveal Lady Gaga and Puerto Rican salsa band Los Sobrinos, who serenaded them with her song 'Die With A Smile'. Talk about an iconic first dance!

We then saw the couple cutting their wedding cake and dancing to Bad Bunny's 'Baile Inolvidable' - and yes, it was all genuine.

The husband and wife, who haven't been named, had invited the star to their wedding, but he said they should instead be part of his half-time show.

Bad Bunny's representative confirmed to Sky News that representative confirmed that the couple had actually been married during the show.

A nod to his Grammy win

Another standout sweet moment was when the rapper referenced his Grammy win, when earlier this month he took home Album of the Year with his fully Spanish-language album, 'Debí Tirar Más Fotos'.

In one segment of the show, a little boy was seen sitting on a sofa with his family, watching an old-fashioned TV which was playing the moment the musician won his Grammy.

The rapper then came over and handed the award to the youngster, who was actually five-year-old actor Lincoln Fox.

A source told ABC News that this was intended to symbolise that anyone can pursue their hopes and dreams.

Spotlighting Puerto Rican culture and cuisine

It's no secret that Bad Bunny made every effort to shine a light on Puerton Rican culture, talent, businesses and cuisine during his performance.

His set included sugar cane fields to symbolise farmer and field workers and a mini casita where the likes of Karol G, Cardi B, Jessica Alba, Alix Earle, Pedro Pascal, and Young Miko got to enjoy the festivities.

Several of the backup dancers, who were also dressed as sugar cane field workers, wore pavas - straw hats which are traditionally made from leaves of the Puerto Rican hat palm.

While performing 'Titi Me Preguntó,' Bad Bunny also walked past a group of dancers who were dressed as customers around a coco frio street vendor cart, which typically sell coconut water on the island.

He also stopped at a makeshift piraguas cart and grabbed a frozen dessert, as well as spotlighting real-life Los Angeles taqueria, Villa's Tacos.

Not to mention walking by a New York-inspired street set that included a store called 'La Marqueta'

As reported by USA Today, La Marqueta is an open-air market in East Harlem that was originally a network of pushcart vendors and a social and economic hub for the area's Latino immigrant community from the 1930s to 1950s.

Concho the frog

Before Bad Bunny began singing 'MONACO,' the camera panned to a screen projection featuring Concho the frog.

For those unfamiliar with Bad Bunny's music, the cartoon animal has become somewhat of an unofficial mascot for the his latest album.

It represents the Puerto Rican crested toad, which is the only toad species native to the island, and is endangered.

Tribute to Daddy Yankee and Tego Calderón

After belting out a mashup mashup of 'Yo Perreo Sola' and 'Voy a Llevarte Pa' PR,' Bad Bunny took a break from his own music and sag a section of Puerto Rican rapper Daddy Yankee's 2004 song 'Gasolina'.

The rapper said in Spanish: "You're listening to music from Puerto Rico. From the barrios and the projects."

He also respectively paid tribute to paid tribute to the work of reggaeton stars Tego Calderón and Don Omar by using samples of their songs 'Pa' Que Retozen' and 'Dale Don Dale'.

Political messages

Finally, although there was no explicit words about politics, Bad Bunny's performance certainly had a clear message amid the ongoing political tensions in America as US president Donald Trump's immigration crackdown continues,.

During the show, the rapper said: "God bless America", before he went on to list nations of Central, South and North America as dancers carried their flags.

Behind them, a billboard message read: "The only thing more powerful than hate is love."

Meanwhile, Bad Bunny held a football at the end of the segment which read in English: "Together, We Are America."
