Patrick Schwarzenegger and Abby Champion Tie the Knot in Lakeside Ceremony

Patrick Schwarzenegger and Abby Champion have officially become husband and wife, celebrating their union in a beautiful ceremony.

Schwarzenegger, 31, and Champion, 28, exchanged their marital promises during a scenic lakeside event at the Gozzer Ranch country club in Coeur D’Alene, Idaho, this past Saturday, September 6, as evidenced by photographs released by the Daily Mail, TMZ, and various other publications.

The newlywed couple donned coordinated cream-toned outfits for their big day. Patrick appeared in a tuxedo featuring black velvet dress pants, while Champion chose a sleeveless gown paired with an expansive veil.

The parents of the White Lotus actor, Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver, were both present, alongside Patrick’s sister, Katherine Schwarzenegger, and her spouse, Chris Pratt. (Arnold and Maria were married from 1986 until 2021.)

Shriver confirmed her son’s impending marriage over the weekend through her Sunday Paper newsletter, noting, "Although Maria is away this weekend celebrating her son's wedding (congratulations Patrick and Abby!), we wondered what insights she'd have for all of us when it comes to kicking off this new season with meaning and purpose."

Meanwhile, Abby’s family was represented by her parents, Greg and Laura Champion, as well as her sister, former Miss Alabama Teen USA winner Baskin Champion.

All of Abby’s bridesmaids reportedly wore yellow dresses, while Patrick’s groomsmen were outfitted in dark tuxedos. Friends and family of the happy couple reportedly arrived in Idaho on Thursday to enjoy several days of celebrations leading up to Saturday’s wedding.

Abby previously disclosed in August that she had traveled with some of her closest friends to Rosemary Beach, Florida, for her bachelorette party. She shared a series of pictures from the trip on Instagram, showing the bride-to-be and her companions cycling, swimming, and, naturally, celebrating.

Us Weekly has contacted representatives for the couple for comment.

Us confirmed the White Lotus star’s relationship with the model in March 2016. A source disclosed at the time that the couple had been romantically involved for some time after first being spotted together in September 2015.

In December 2023, the couple announced their engagement, accompanying their joint Instagram post with the caption, “FOREVER AND EVER .”

Four months later, Patrick — who is the eldest son of Schwarzenegger and Shriver — exclusively informed Us that he and Abby had “not even started” making wedding arrangements due to their busy schedules.

“We are slow!” he joked in April 2024. “I’m working right now, so I’m out of town for the next bit.”

Patrick also reflected on asking Abby to marry him, sharing that she had “no idea” the proposal was coming.

“I did it during sunrise when she had no makeup on, sweats on and was sleeping!” he recounted.

Patrick then spoke warmly about his connection with Abby, noting that the two “have grown so much, as individuals and in our relationship” over the years.

“We continue to grow together and separately,” he said. “We started dating when she was 18 and I was 21, every day gets better and better!”

While Patrick managed to surprise Abby with his proposal, his brother-in-law, Chris — who has been married to Patrick’s sister Katherine since June 2019 — nearly gave away the special moment.

“We’ve been together for so long that I wanted to find some way that was going to be kind of unique, and still surprise her,” he told guest host Molly Sims during a March 2025 appearance on The Kelly Clarkson Show. “And so, we go on a little morning sunrise walk at, like, 6 a.m. down at the beach and that’s when I did it.”

Both of their families were present for the occasion, but Chris' assistance with the proposal location almost spoiled the surprise.

“[He] set up an umbrella on the beach, and he set up all these roses and all these flowers, and then right when we walked down, he jumped up with the umbrella and ran away, and there was this beautiful flower arrangement,” Patrick remembered. “That’s where I proposed.”

According to Patrick, Chris did not alert Abby “until the last second.”

“[Abby] was like, ‘Is that Chris?’” he recalled. “And I was like, ‘Yup.’”

This marks the first marriage for both Patrick and Abby. He previously dated Miley Cyrus for five months between 2014 and 2015.
