Hailee Steinfeld said “I do” in a custom Tamara Ralph gown that left both her and her now-husband, NFL star Josh Allen, speechless.
“Josh says we have to talk about my dress now because I ‘stunned’ him when I got to the altar,” Steinfeld, 28, wrote in the Friday, June 14, edition of her “Beau Society” newsletter, recapping their wedding ceremony. “It’s easily the most perfect gown I’ve ever put on my body.”
Steinfeld and the Buffalo Bills quarterback, 29, wed on May 31 in Santa Barbara, California. While Allen looked dapper in a custom Tom Ford tuxedo, Steinfeld collaborated with designer Ralph to create a strapless, mermaid-style dress.
“It’s easily the most perfect gown I’ve ever put on my body. Tamara Ralph designed it custom for me. Her tailoring is exquisite,” the Sinners star recalled. “We were on the tightest timeline. Six weeks before the wedding, my mom and I flew to Paris straight from the Sinners premiere in London for the fitting. I really had to lean into the whole ‘trust the process’ thing and thank God for Rob, Mariel, Tamara and her team for pulling it all together in time.”
She added, “On our wedding day, when I put on this dress, I actually lost my breath. I’ve never felt more like myself and more beautiful.”
Steinfeld accessorized her bridal gown with long, sheer opera gloves from Tom Bachik, a veil made from French Chantilly lace and Mikimoto pearl earrings. For glam, Steinfeld wore her long locks in a sleek updo.
Steinfeld also wanted another non-traditional accessory on the big day.
“Instead of a bouquet, I held one single crystal rose,” she wrote. “Suffice it to say, it was perfect — the whole entire thing. The next day, Josh and I ran off into the sunset to our honeymoon. … Now we’re back, and it’s been a whole 13 days of being married, and we’ll be staying on this high forever!”
Steinfeld and Allen started dating in 2023, getting engaged the next year during his bye week from the Bills.
