After having to postpone their wedding ceremony multiple times due to the pandemic, Sarah Hyland and Wells Adams finally got married over the weekend.
The couple wed Saturday at an outdoor ceremony hosted at Sunstone Winery near Santa Barbara, California. For the special day, Hyland chose a Vera Wang Haute Couture ballgown in ivory silk that featured a hand-pleated bodice with a sweetheart neckline and tulle sleeves, and a skirt with a thigh-high slit. She completed her bridal look with a cathedral-length Italian tulle veil with hand appliqué macramé lace trim. Vera Wang shared a first-look at the dress on Instagram, writing in the caption, “CHARM PERSONIFIED,” with a prayer hand emoji, adding “So happy to share in your happiness! Much love.”
For the reception, the actress changed into yet another Vera Wang Haute Couture gown, this time with a draped neckline and detachable tulle sleeves. Adams, meanwhile, opted for a simple black Gucci suit with matching tie. A number of Hyland’s Modern Family costars were also in attendance for her big day, including Nolan Gould, Sofia Vergara, who brought along her son Manolo Vergara, Julia Bowen, and Jesse Tyler Ferguson and his husband, Justin Mikita.
Adams and the Modern Family star first met through social media, flirting on Twitter in 2016. But the pair didn’t actually start dating until the fall of 2017. The former Bachelorette contestant proposed in the summer of 2019 after almost two years of dating and their wedding was originally planned to take place in August of 2020, but was then pushed back multiple times due to the pandemic and concerns over their guests’ safety.
Since the couple had a much longer engagement than they’d originally planned, Hyland admitted that her concept of what she wanted to look like on her wedding day also started to change over time. “I’m going with more dresses than I originally planned,” she told People last month. “But my vision board is still intact.” Adams added that his plan for prepping for their big day was to “try a bunch of things on and make a decision.” He added, “I’m also going with more gray hairs than I originally planned.”
The pair also revealed that planning their wedding was totally smooth sailing except for when it came to whether or not to include their two dogs, a bloodhound named Carl and a labrador retriever named Boo, in the ceremony. Hyland was all for it, but Adams eventually convinced her it would be a bad idea. She explained, “It’s probably the biggest thing we disagree on, but I also agree. Boo loves anytime I have a fitting at home. If I have a long train, she loves to sit on it. She likes to be involved. She’s a girly girl. And I can only imagine the damage and dirt that she would bring to a white dress.”
