Olympic gold medalist Simone Biles has tied the knot with her NFL player beau, Jonathan Owens, for a second time! The happy couple recently celebrated their love with a gorgeous destination wedding in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. Go inside the nuptials…
With stunning ocean views, all their family and friends, and all the romantic details you could dream of, Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens’ wedding ceremony was definitely one for the books.
The Olympic gold medalist, 26, and the NFL free agent, 27, have tied the knot again, exchanging vows in a 140-guest affair at Nobu Los Cabos on Saturday evening. The couple first tied the knot in a Texas courthouse last month.
The 26-year-old bride wowed in four stunning dresses, all from renowned bridal designer, Galia Lahav. While detailing her wedding plans on Instagram last month, Simone shared that she was going for a “kind of dramatic” look for her big day, explaining, “you only have a wedding once.”
Simone commenced her wedding festivities at her rehearsal dinner, donning a Galia Lahav JILL mini dress. The playful mini dress featured spaghetti straps, an asymmetrical hemline, and beaded fringe, making it the ideal attire for dancing.
For the ceremony, Simone wore a custom Galia Lahav GIMAYA dress with a high slit to make her appear taller. Later, for the reception, she slipped into a body-hugging custom MAYA dress with sheer panels for added sexiness.
To wrap up the wedding festivities, she donned a sparkling custom Galia Lahav G-502 dress that was covered in sparkles.
The wedding was decorated with champagne, gold, and white hues, with lavish florals being the most expensive aspect of the wedding, as Simone revealed in a Q&A session. The wedding party included 8 bridesmaids and 7 groomsmen, and the couple exchanged heartfelt vows.
During the service, Simone and Jonathan wanted to keep things as lighthearted as possible.
“Jonathan and I just tuned into each other and blocked everyone out,” the new bride spilled to VOGUE. “I fell in love with him all over.” After being pronounced husband and wife, the newlyweds recessed back up the aisle to the beat of water drums.
“Whales were jumping out of the water as our ceremony started,” Simone said. “Whale season is over by the way. It sprinkled for two minutes after we got married—which is good luck!—and we had a full moon. It was truly the most magical!”
Emotions ran high as the couple exchanged heartfelt vows during their romantic Cabo wedding.
Jonathan teared up the moment he saw Simone come down the aisle (swipe above).
The couple decided to write their own vows. Simone expressed her emotions on her Instagram Story saying, “Idk how I’m supposed to get through it…I was so teary [and] choked up at the courthouse ceremony, [and] it was just basic vows.”
At the reception…
The happy couple floated across the dance floor for their first dance.
“Nobu actually made our big main cake—it was red velvet,” Simone shared with VOGUE. “It was so stunning and delicious. The second cake was technically the groom’s cake. It was an ice cream cake that Jonathan requested at the start of our wedding planning process. He needed that, and it actually came from Dairy Queen. Everyone raved about it!”
Ha!
“Entertainment was on point, and I could not have asked for more!” The evening ended with an after-party in a similar place to where it all began—at Ardea Steakhouse—that included plenty of late-night bites and dancing. “I’m so sad it’s all over,” Simone said. “I want to do it again. We had the best night of our lives. It was a 12 out of 10!”
