Patrick Schwarzenegger, the 31-year-old actor, and Abby Champion, the 28-year-old model, have officially tied the knot in a romantic and intimate ceremony. The wedding took place at the ultra-exclusive Gozzer Ranch country club in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho, over the weekend. The couple, who have been together since 2015, exchanged vows on a bluff overlooking the scenic Lake Coeur d'Alene.
The ceremony was attended by close family and friends, including Patrick's parents, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver, who reunited for the special occasion. Also in attendance were his sister Katherine Schwarzenegger and her husband, actor Chris Pratt, as well as Abby's parents, Greg and Laura Champion, and her sister, model Baskin Champion.
Abby looked stunning in a full-skirted sleeveless cream gown, complemented by a cathedral-length veil. Patrick looked dapper in a cream tuxedo jacket paired with black dress trousers. The bridesmaids wore buttermilk yellow gowns, while the eleven groomsmen were dressed in classic black tuxedos.
The couple's wedding was initially planned for earlier, but it was postponed due to Patrick's acting commitments. He landed a role as Saxon Ratliff in the third season of the hit TV show "The White Lotus," which required him to film in Thailand for seven months. Patrick revealed that Abby was very supportive of the delay, as she is a big fan of the show.
Patrick and Abby first met in 2015 through mutual friends. They got engaged in December 2023 and shared the happy news with a joint Instagram post captioned "FOREVER AND EVER".
The Gozzer Ranch ceremony marks a significant milestone for the couple, who have shared many moments together over the years, from red-carpet appearances to family vacations in Idaho. For Patrick, marrying Abby signifies a new chapter as he balances his Hollywood career with his family legacy. The lakeside wedding in Idaho was a beautiful celebration of their love, surrounded by family, friends, and the stunning natural scenery, marking the beginning of their married life together.
