Patrick Schwarzenegger and model Abby Champion are now husband and wife.
The pair exchanged vows at a lakeside wedding ceremony at Gozzer Ranch Country Club, with the peaceful waters of Lake Coeur d’Alene in northern Idaho serving as a backdrop. Their September 6 nuptials provided a picture-perfect day filled with friends, family members, and a few well-known Hollywood figures.
Abby, 28, was breathtaking in a traditional white dress, oozing eternal bridal beauty, and Patrick, 31, dressed in a white tuxedo jacket with black trousers, achieving the perfect harmony of elegance and contemporary style. Snapshots taken by The Daily Mail found the couple grinning from ear to ear as they exchanged their eternal vows in the presence of dear ones.
Present in the gathering were Patrick’s world-renowned parents, Maria Shriver and Arnold Schwarzenegger, who both attended to witness their son’s special day. His siblings were also in full attendance, with brother Joseph Baena and sister Katherine Schwarzenegger Pratt, who attended with her husband Chris Pratt. The event was a real family affair, with both sides coming together to celebrate the couple’s new life.
It was not only family that attended Patrick’s side of support. His White Lotus co-star Jason Isaacs was also seen attending the ceremony, as well as actor Rob Lowe, showing the strong connections Patrick has developed in Hollywood. Abby’s parents, Laura and Greg, also witnessed the special moment of their daughter, turning the wedding into an emotional joining of families.
This achievement is almost two years after Patrick and Abby made their engagement public in December 2022. While the pair posted beautiful beachside shots, Abby flaunted her shining two-stone diamond engagement ring and Patrick capped the moment off with a kiss. They marked the engagement with an intimate setting, featuring a heart-shaped bed of roses and a cake with their own faces on them, representing the happiness they were soon to embark on together.
While they’ve been together, Patrick has been outspoken about how much he loves Abby. Their relationship has been in the limelight constantly, whether together on a campaign like their Fall 2019 Calvin Klein Jeans one or through adorable peeks on social media. In speaking with GQ about the wedding planning process in a 2023 interview, Patrick was adamant that his sole responsibility was to make Abby happy. “I’m happy to give my opinion on things, and otherwise I’m just there to support her and make it so that she has the best day that she wants,” he explained, showing how devoted he was to making the day perfect.
Patrick never hesitated to show his love for Abby. On her 27th birthday in February 2024, he posted a heartwarming message on Instagram with the caption: “I LOVE YOU SO MUCH! Can’t wait to celebrate and order off the kids menu!!” The light-hearted and loving post was a testament to the relationship that has stood the test of time.
Their Idaho wedding was not just a milestone on a personal level but also a glamorous affair that united Hollywood royalty, close-knit family, and the real-life love story of two individuals who have developed together in the public eye. Exchanging their vows and with a lifetime of possibilities ahead of them, Patrick Schwarzenegger and Abby Champion have now begun their next chapter as husband and wife, with the people who matter most by their side.
