Wedding Ceremony in Rhode Island
NFL star Christian McCaffrey and former Miss Universe winner Olivia Culpo tied the knot on Saturday in a wedding ceremony held in Watch Hill, Rhode Island. The couple, who got engaged in April last year, took advantage of the NFL offseason to celebrate their nuptials. Vogue announced the news, sharing exclusive images of Culpo’s gown.
The Bridal Gown
Olivia Culpo, a Rhode Island native, donned a long sleeve Dolce & Gabbana wedding dress for the occasion. In an interview with Vogue, Culpo shared her thoughts on the dress, “When I think about Christian and what he loves and the moments that he thinks that I’m most beautiful, it’s absolutely in something like this, timeless, covered, and elegant.” She added, “I wanted it to feel effortless and as if it’s complimenting me, not overpowering me. There’s so much beauty and simplicity.”
