Yellowstone star and reigning Country Music Association's Female Vocalist of the Year, Lainey Wilson, is trading her cowboy boots for wedding bells as she plans a spectacularly large, quintessentially country celebration to marry former Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Devlin 'Duck' Hodges.
A Tennessee Celebration Fit For A Country Queen
The couple, who got engaged in a romantic sunset proposal earlier this year, are deep in planning for a true Southern-style wedding. Sources close to the pair confirm the ceremony and reception will be held in Wilson's home state of Tennessee, embracing the rustic, heartfelt charm that defines the singer's public persona.
'She wants a big country wedding,' an insider revealed, highlighting the scale of the upcoming nuptials. The event is expected to perfectly blend Lainey's down-home roots with the star power of her successful entertainment career.
From the Football Field to the Altar
Hodges, a former NFL signal-caller known for his unexpected rise with the Steelers, proposed to Wilson in a deeply personal setting. The athlete got down on one knee during a serene evening at Wilson's farm, a property that holds significant meaning for the singer-songwriter.
The engagement ring itself is a testament to their unique love story, featuring a dazzling diamond set on a gold band—a classic choice with a modern twist that mirrors the couple's own blend of traditional values and contemporary lives.
A Guest List Brimming with Stars
The wedding is anticipated to be a major event on the Nashville social calendar, with guest expected to include a who's who of the country music world and former teammates from Hodges' football career. Fellow cast members from the hit Paramount series Yellowstone are also likely to receive invitations, potentially including fan favourites like Kelly Reilly and Cole Hauser.
Wilson, known for her hits like 'Things a Man Oughta Know' and 'Watermelon Moonshine,' has seen her career skyrocket, while Hodges has transitioned from the gridiron to a new chapter alongside his famous fiancée. Their upcoming wedding promises to be a celebration not just of their love, but of the two distinct worlds they represent—a true union of country music and professional sports.
