White Lotus star Patrick Schwarzenegger and model Abby Champion celebrated their love with a three-day wedding in early September in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho, planned by Ashley Graham Events. The festivities included an intimate farm-to-table rehearsal dinner, a welcome barbecue, and a breathtaking wedding day, with the couple giving an exclusive interview to Vogue and sharing photos from their special weekend.

On Friday, Abby stunned in a long-sleeved Bec + Bridge lace dress with black cowboy boots and a hat, embracing “a whole different vibe” for the evening. “This outfit actually came together just two days before I left,” she shared. Patrick’s complete look was timeless and created by Tom Ford.
“My mother-in-law dreamed up the whole Western Night and did everything herself. Seeing it all come together for the first time was pure magic,” Abby added.

On Saturday’s ceremony Abby walked down the aisle in a custom silk-wool column gown by Danielle Frankel, featuring a high neck and a dramatic deep V back. Instead of a traditional train, she chose a silk overskirt with a hand-painted lining. “For me, the dress and who designed it were incredibly important,” Abby told Vogue. Frankel described Abby as a dream client: “By the end of our work together, we felt like family, as Abby’s sister Baskin and her nephew joined the fittings.” Patrick waited under a floral arch in a custom Haider Ackermann tuxedo for Tom Ford, while Abby’s father officiated the ceremony.

After the ceremony and cocktail hour, Abby changed into a second Danielle Frankel gown – a hand-painted floral design with dripping strands of organza and delicate pearl trim, for the evening celebrations. Reflecting on the weekend, Abby said, “I still can’t believe it’s over – it all flew by like a dream. I’m so excited to start this next chapter with Patrick.”

The couple’s story began in 2015 on a casual drinks date in Los Angeles with a mutual friend. Sparks flew instantly: “He got my number, asked me out, and the rest is history,” Abby told Vogue. Eight years later, Patrick proposed during an early morning beach walk in Santa Monica.
