NBA superstar and Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum, 27, and Grammy-winning R&B singer Ella Mai, 30, celebrated their love with a spectacular wedding on Saturday, August 23, at the picturesque D’Vine Grace Vineyard in Dallas. The date held special significance, marking both the day the couple officially began their relationship and got engaged.
The lavish ceremony, attended by 190 guests, was a blend of elegance and personal touches, reflecting the couple’s journey together. The vineyard’s rolling hills and lush greenery provided a stunning backdrop for the event, which was described by attendees as a “slam dunk” celebration of love.
Tatum, a five-time NBA All-Star and recent Olympic gold medalist, looked dapper in a custom-tailored tuxedo, while Mai radiated in a breathtaking gown designed by a yet-to-be-disclosed designer. The couple exchanged vows in an emotional ceremony, with guests including teammates, celebrities, and close family and friends. Notable attendees reportedly included fellow Celtics stars Jaylen Brown and Derrick White, as well as music industry figures who joined to toast the couple’s union.
The reception featured a mix of soulful music, gourmet cuisine, and heartfelt speeches that highlighted Tatum and Mai’s deep bond. A special performance by Mai herself, serenading her new husband, brought tears and cheers from the crowd. The couple’s first dance, set to one of Mai’s soulful hits, was a highlight of the evening, showcasing their chemistry and love.
The wedding date, August 23, was no coincidence. “It’s our day,” Tatum shared in a brief statement to the press. “It’s when we became official, when I proposed, and now when we said ‘I do.’ It’s a full-circle moment.” The couple, who have been relatively private about their relationship, first sparked dating rumors in 2019 and have since been spotted supporting each other at games and concerts.
Fans took to social media to celebrate the news, with posts on X calling the wedding “a championship-level event” and praising the couple’s chemistry. “Jayson Tatum and Ella Mai are the ultimate power couple,” one user wrote, while another quipped, “From the court to the altar, Tatum’s got all the moves!”
The newlyweds are reportedly planning a honeymoon after the NBA season kicks off, with Tatum gearing up for another run at a championship with the Celtics. For now, the couple is basking in their newlywed glow, with Mai’s soulful melodies and Tatum’s on-court prowess continuing to captivate fans worldwide.
Congratulations to Jayson Tatum and Ella Mai on their beautiful union!
