Olivia Culpo and Christian McCaffery tie the knot in front of star-studded guest list at venue right next to iconic Taylor Swift home
Here comes the bride! Olivia Culpo and Christian McCaffery have officially tied the knot.
Christian McCaffrey and Olivia Culpo got married in a dreamy seaside church in the state where the former Miss Universe grew up.
The highly anticipated ceremony, attended by a glittering list of models and the groom’s colleagues from the San Francisco 49ers, took place Saturday evening in Rhode Island.
DailyMail.com previously reported that the couple stayed at the luxury Ocean House hotel in Westerly, on the pleasant southwestern edge of the state, before tying the knot at Watch Hill Chapel just across the road.
Before the bridal couple entered the chapel, the street was cordoned off by police officers. Moreover, they were shielded from the public by an army of employees with umbrellas.

Culpo posted photos of her lavish wedding dress to Instagram just minutes before the wedding started in the beautiful church
But DailyMail.com caught a glimpse of Culpo’s extravagant floor-length wedding dress as she left the chapel and climbed into a white car after the hour-long ceremony.
The bride dazzled in her striking dress, which flowed meters high over the ground behind her.
Culpo, 32, opted for a modest fit with a high neck and long sleeves that hugged the waist before blossoming into the giant tiered skirt.
She wore her long hair down under a delicate lace-trimmed veil.
The influencer shared a closer look at the gorgeous dress with her 5.5 million Instagram followers in several official pre-wedding photos posted just before she made her grand entrance to the chapel.
Running back McCaffrey, 28, was also seen slipping into their car after the ceremony in his wedding suit as they drove the few yards down the road back to the luxury hotel where they were staying in the run-up to their big day.
About a hundred guests were spotted on the stairs to the luxurious daffodil yellow resort before the wedding, including Victoria’s Secret model Devon Windsor, who dazzled in a low-cut silver maxi dress adorned with delicate silver bracelets.

Before McCaffery and Culpo tied the knot, guests entered the chapel beneath an elaborate, 12-foot-tall floral arch that workers spent hours building Saturday morning.
Just before that, she enjoyed a drink on the hotel lawn with her new boyfriend, Prince Constantine Alexios of Greece and Denmark.
They were also spotted approaching the resort earlier on Saturday morning, waiting for the wedding to be built.
The couple was not yet wearing bridal attire at the time. Nader, 27, wore a black minidress under a black leather jacket, while the 25-year-old prince wore a loose-fitting shirt and jeans.
It is unclear how long their relationship has lasted. Ny Breaking confirmed that Nader divorced her husband Billy Haire a few months ago after four years of marriage.
The beautiful New England-style resort that guests enjoyed is the most premium place to stay in Rhode Island as the only AAA Five Diamond and Forbes Five Star hotel in the state.
The night before the wedding, hotel workers were laying a wooden floor beneath a white five-turret tent surrounded by a plume of purple hydrangeas. The party is expected to start there later on Saturday.
A winding path through the hotel’s manicured gardens takes guests to a private beach overlooking the azure Block Island Sound.

McCaffery and Culpo were spotted enjoying the beach earlier this week.
On Monday, they left Van Nuys, Los Angeles, for their 3,000-mile journey in a private jet decorated with rose petals and flowers.
They even took their dog Oliver to New England, where Culpo grew up and won her first major beauty pageant: Miss Rhode Island 2012.
They were greeted by a large ‘Mr & Mrs’ sign outside the plane before boarding.
The special white car for the wedding was also spotted

Culpo and McCaffrey were treated to champagne and a three-course meal during their wedding flight. They also received a digital photo frame with some of their best photos together.
Culpo previously said she wanted Oliver to be heavily involved in the wedding ceremony this summer, setting her sights on their dog being the ring bearer that day.
McCaffrey is currently enjoying the NFL offseason after the 49ers’ heartbreaking loss to the Kansas City Chiefs in last season’s Super Bowl.
The running back had a remarkable 2024 season on an individual level, ranking first in the NFL in rushing yards (1,459) and fourth in touchdowns (14).
