Christian McCaffrey and Olivia Culpo have tied the knot at a dreamy oceanside chapel in the state where the former Miss Universe grew up.
The much-anticipated ceremony – attended by a glittering roster of models and the groom’s fellow San Francisco 49ers all clad in Dulce & Gabbana, per the wedding’s dress code – unfolded in Rhode Island on Saturday evening.
DailyMail.com previously revealed the couple was staying at the luxury Ocean House hotel in Westerly – next to Taylor Swift’s sprawling mansion – on the balmy south-western edge of the state, before tying the knot at Watch Hill Chapel across the road.
Cops blocked off the street in the moments before the bride and groom entered the chapel – and they were further shielded from public view by an army of umbrella-clad employees.

Running back McCaffrey, 28, was also seen slipping into their car in his wedding suit after the ceremony. They drove just a few yards across the road back to the luxury hotel where they have been staying in the build up to their big day.
Around a hundred guests wearing black tie were seen on the stairway to the luxury daffodil-yellow resort before the wedding – including Victoria’s Secret model Devon Windsor who stunned in a low-cut silver maxi dress accessorised with delicate silver bangles.

McCaffrey is currently enjoying the NFL offseason after the 49ers’ gut-wrenching defeat to the Kansas City Chiefs in last season’s Super Bowl.
The running back had a remarkable 2024 campaign on an individual level, ranking first in the NFL for rushing yards (1,459) and fourth for touchdowns (14).
