Country music just witnessed its most romantic headline of the year — Lainey Wilson is officially married! The chart-topping country queen has tied the knot with her longtime love, former NFL quarterback Devlin “Duck” Hodges, in a stunning ceremony that’s left fans and fellow celebrities in absolute awe.
Just over four months after their enchanting engagement on the steps of George Jones’s historic home in Franklin, Tennessee — a location dear to Wilson’s heart — the couple finally said “I do.” But this wasn’t just a wedding — it was a full-blown Southern fairytale.
A Private Affair — Until It Wasn’t
Though Lainey and Duck kept their wedding plans closely guarded, the big reveal sent shockwaves across social media when it emerged that the ceremony took place over the weekend at a private, secluded estate in the heart of the Tennessee countryside. Picture this: wildflowers, vintage lanterns, oak trees strung with lights — all wrapped in a warm, rustic ambiance that echoed both Lainey’s southern roots and Duck’s humble, outdoorsy spirit.

The Guest List That Shook the Industry
What truly set this wedding apart? The star-studded guest list that read like a who’s who of country royalty and Hollywood glitterati.

From the NFL side, Hodges’ former teammates and coaches joined the celebration, blending sports prestige with country music charm in a way only this couple could pull off.
One insider described the scene perfectly:
“It felt like a gathering of legends, but somehow, it was still just a family celebration — intimate, heartfelt, and absolutely unforgettable.”
Lainey’s Stunning Look and the Couple’s Special Moments

But the magic didn’t stop at “I do.” The reception turned into a full-on concert, with Lainey serenading her new husband with an acoustic rendition of “Heart Like A Truck.” Fans would have lost their minds if they’d been there to see Duck join Lainey on stage for a surprise duet — a moment of pure joy that had guests on their feet.
