Sam Darnold has officially entered a new chapter off the field.
The Seattle Seahawks quarterback married Katie Hoofnagle on April 3 at Rancho Valencia Resort & Spa in California, bringing together a stylish, black-tie celebration that blended tradition with a modern edge. The couple leaned into a black-and-white theme, creating a timeless feel that carried throughout the weekend, PEOPLE reports.
They described the event as “the best night” surrounded by loved ones, highlighting an energetic atmosphere that reflected different phases of their lives. The celebration stretched beyond the ceremony, starting with a coastal-themed welcome party and ending with a farewell brunch inspired by Italian flavors.
A star-studded celebration with personal touches
The guest list featured several familiar NFL names, including Josh Allen and Hailee Steinfeld, along with Christian McCaffrey and Olivia Culpo. The ceremony itself emphasized intimacy, as the couple opted for a phone-free setting to keep guests present in the moment.
Hoofnagle walked down a white floral aisle as live strings played, wearing a lace gown that connected back to her personal history. She paired the look with simple jewelry and a meaningful watch gifted by Darnold. Later, she changed into a shorter reception dress, while Darnold added a velvet jacket to his custom suit.
They exchanged handwritten vows on an elevated platform framed by floral arrangements, with a close friend officiating. The result captured both elegance and personality, marking a milestone moment for the quarterback away from the spotlight of the NFL.
