Culpo and McCaffrey tied the knot in June 2024 in the influencer’s home state of Rhode Island. Speaking with Vogue ahead of her nuptials, Culpo said that marriage is a “covenant.”
“It’s the beginning of the rest of your life,” she said, “and it’s the union and bond of two people forever.”
Those sentiments were reflected in Culpo’s choice of wedding dress — a custom Dolce & Gabbana gown that, in her words “felt as serious as that commitment.”
“When I think about Christian and what he loves and the moments that he thinks that I’m most beautiful, it’s absolutely in something like this: timeless, covered and elegant,” the model added.

Several months before her viral wedding, the Miss Universe winner shared her desire to “start trying immediately” for children as soon as she married the NFL star.
With the June wedding behind them, Culpo’s little sister Sophia and older sister Aurora — who has two kids of her own — told PEOPLE exclusively in October how they are already witnessing the newlywed adjust her life in anticipation of parenthood.
Aurora noted that as Culpo moved homes, she’s decorating with a bit more regard for the unpredictable. “Already, I can see that her house is no longer all white and beige,” Aurora quipped. “I’m like, ‘You’re realizing this might not work for your future.’ ”
Sophia agreed, describing her sister as a “through and through perfectionist,” something “you can’t be with kids.”
“I know she’s going to be a really loving mother. I know that she’s going to be very prepared. I think she’s going to have everything in place,” Aurora said, joking, “Probably already picking out her children’s preschool. At the moment she’s probably already on the waitlist.”
