Country music sensation Lainey Wilson and former NFL quarterback Devlin “Duck” Hodges have officially embarked on their newest chapter together, exchanging vows in a breathtaking ceremony deep in the heart of Tennessee. The couple, whose engagement had kept fans buzzing for months, wed on Sunday, May 10, at the historic Ruskin Cave in Dickson. The ceremony took place on a cobblestone ledge draped in natural greenery, with a majestic waterfall serving as the ultimate living backdrop for their “I dos.”
The choice of venue was as authentic as the couple themselves. Wilson shared with Vogue that the decision was made spontaneously during a road trip through the Tennessee backroads. After spotting a billboard for the cave, Hodges jokingly asked if she wanted to get married there—a suggestion Wilson immediately embraced. The couple fell in love with the cave’s raw, unrefined beauty, which perfectly complemented the intimate, countryside atmosphere they envisioned for their special day.

Fashion played a starring role in the rustic celebration. Wilson walked down the aisle in a custom Oscar de la Renta gown, a masterpiece featuring intricate Japanese cherry blossom embroidery that flowed from the neckline down the silhouette. Hodges matched the elegance with a bespoke suit by D. Lacquaniti, accessorized with personalized Western touches including handcrafted cowboy boots and a custom bolo tie.
The ceremony was officiated by Wilson’s mentor, Wes Williams, adding a deeply personal touch to the proceedings. After the vows, the celebration moved inside the cave for a reception filled with soul food and music. The night reached its cinematic conclusion as the newlyweds were sent off through a shimmering tunnel of sparklers, departing the venue in a vintage white Ford truck—a quintessential finish to a true Tennessee fairy tale.
