NFL's newest power couple Josh Allen and Hailee Steinfeld tie the knot in stunning Santa Barbara ceremony

Actress Hailee Steinfeld looked stunning in her custom white-silk strapless gown as she tied the knot with quarterback fiancé Josh Allen in a beautiful sunset ceremony in California.

Exclusive photos from DailyMail.com captured the moment when a radiant Steinfeld, 28, walked down the aisle escorted by her proud father Peter, gazing lovingly at her 29-year-old soon-to-be husband.

Steinfeld added a modern touch to her bridal look by forgoing the traditional bouquet and instead opting for long white gloves, elegant diamond studs, and a billowy veil.

Later, the couple were seen celebrating saying ‘I do’ with a kiss in front of a clapping crowd of guests, with a dark suit-clad Allen seen looking proud as he made his way back down the aisle with his new wife.

The al-fresco wedding took place at the tony San Ysidro ranch in Montecito – a celebrity favorite that has previously seen Chris Pratt, Gwyneth Paltrow and Jessica Simpson marry in its grounds.

For Steinfeld and Allen, the gardens of the $3,000-a-night hotel had been decked out with bouquets of white roses, as well as elaborately trimmed bushes set out in pots.

Along with dad Peter, Steinfeld’s mom Cheri and brother Griffin were also among the guests looking on, as were Allen’s parents Joel and LaVonne, and his siblings Jason, Nicala and Makenna.

The ritzy nuptials mark the high point of a lavish wedding weekend that had, until now, been shrouded in secrecy – with even the date being kept quiet.

But on Friday, the celebrations were brought out into the open, thanks to a lavish rehearsal dinner that saw Steinfeld wear two different white dresses: one a knee-length silk slip dress and the other a frothy minidress.

Allen, meanwhile, kept it classic in a beige suit and, at one point, was seen shielding his now-wife from the California sunshine with a small white parasol.

Earlier the same day, the golfing aficionado was seen out and about on the swanky resort’s 18-hole golf course where he put the set of custom golf clubs that he was seen clutching at Van Nuys airport on Wednesday to use.

Along with a private golf course, San Ysidro Ranch’s 550-acre grounds also include extensive botanical gardens and a manicured lawn where mini golf and other lawn games are available.

Accommodation is in luxury private cottages that dot the grounds, each of which boasts its own private sunken spa and private outdoor rain showers.

One is named for John and Jackie Kennedy who spent their 1953 honeymoon in the cottage that now bears their name.

Iconic British Prime Minister Winston Churchill also stayed at the property as did Hollywood luminaries such as Groucho Marx, while John Huston wrote the screenplay for African Queen during a 1950 stay.

Steinfeld and Allen’s lavish wedding come just six months after they got engaged during a romantic clifftop proposal in Malibu.

That took place in front of a stunning rose arch made from gold, pink and coral blooms with Allen seen in photos posted to Instagram getting down on one knee in front of a delighted Steinfeld.  

Allen, who turned 29 last week, and Steinfeld were engaged during the Bills bye week in November, when the quarterback proposed on a California cliff overlooking the Pacific Ocean.

The two were first linked in the spring of 2023, when they were photographed dining together in New York City. Steinfeld has since begun attending Bills home games, and the couple hosted a Halloween party.

The couple was inseparable at the NFL Awards ceremony in February, when Allen credited Steinfeld upon accepting the league’s MVP honor.

Allen has spoken highly of the settling influence provided by Steinfeld, referring to her as his biggest fan.

The signal caller was spotted back at practice with the Buffalo Bills on Tuesday, with photographers catching him chatting with NBA icon Vince Carter – who is a new minority owner of the team.

In fact, there was no sign of jitters from the NFL MVP, who danced in the huddle with his teammates, barked out plays, and then joined the celebrations in the end zone after he’d thrown a perfect pass to Curtis Samuel.

Sean McDermott, the Bills head coach, spoke on Tuesday and acknowledged how important Allen’s presence was at practice in light of his busy offseason schedule.

‘I think it says everything, right? He is the face of our organization. He’s the leader of our team,’ McDermott said. ‘Like any leader, in particular the leader of the team, those words that he says and his actions are exponentially impactful, to the whole roster, the whole team.’

‘He is as confident and as calm, cool and collected as he always is,’ McDermott added, when pressed on this quarterback’s looming nuptials.  

The heavily-anticipated ‘wedding of the year’ had been kept a closely-guarded secret until the loose lips of Allen’s Buffalo Bills teammates accidentally let slip coveted details about the star-studded affair. 

While Allen and Steinfeld themselves have neglected to share any specifics, Bills star Dion Dawkins did previously reveal the date in an on-air TV slip-up.

Speaking on Good Morning Football back in March, Dawkins was asked about the wedding and immediately began to share more details than perhaps the bride and groom would have liked.

‘Josh Allen is one of those guys and he sealed that deal,’ Dawkins told presenter Kyle Brandt, before adding: ‘Soon to come, May 31st.’

The wedding date comes just over three months before Allen suits up for the beginning of the 2025 NFL season with the Bills kickstarting their campaign against the Baltimore Ravens on September 7. 

Allen is entering his eighth NFL season. In March, he signed a contract extension worth $330 million, including an NFL record $250 million of it guaranteed, making him among the league’s highest-paid players. 

It remains unclear if the NFL star will whisk his new bride away on a romantic honeymoon to toast their marriage or whether the player will be required to immediately report back to Buffalo to lock in for the Bills upcoming charge to the Super Bowl.
