Lainey Wilson, Devlin ‘Duck’ Hodges Wed in Tennessee Ceremony: ‘We Wanted It to Be Special’

Lainey Wilson and Devlin “Duck” Hodges are married! The couple wed on Sunday, May 10, during a ceremony held at Ruskin Cave in Dickson, Tenn. Vogue offered a first look at several photos from the ceremony and reception.

“Duck and I were driving backroads in Tennessee and saw a billboard for The Ruskin Cave,” Wilson told Vogue Weddings in the feature published Thursday (May 14). “Duck said, ‘You wanna get married there?’ I said, ‘Done deal.’ We dropped by, saw the venue and fell in love with the natural beauty of the cave and the simplicity of the property.”

Instead of the bell-bottoms and hat that have become Wilson’s signature onstage look, the Grammy-winning artist wore a flowing Oscar de la Renta gown with cherry blossom floral accents, and arrived at the ceremony in a horse-drawn carriage. Hodges wore a suit by D. Lacquaniti.

Wilson’s father walked her down the aisle, and Hodges and the singer were wed by her mentor and friend Wes Williams.

“I have never seen Duck smile as big as he did then,” Wilson told the publication. “It made me feel giddy about turning the page into this next chapter of marriage. We were both anxious to say ‘I do!’”

According to Vogue, among those attending the wedding were many in the Nashville country music community, including Luke Bryan, Wynonna Judd, Ian Munsick, Ashland Craft, Drew Baldridge, Lauren Alaina, Ella Langley, Jelly Roll and Miranda Lambert.

The newly married couple danced their first dance to Muscadine Bloodline’s “10-90 (The Sound of Roses),” the magazine reported. Wilson’s Louisiana roots were evident throughout the reception, with the New Orleans group Rebirth Brass Band performing and guests enjoyed Cajun food created by the chefs from Wilson’s Bell Bottoms Up Bar.

Wilson began dating former NFL quarterback Hodges in 2021, and he popped the question in February 2025.

The country star told the magazine of her wedding: “We wanted it to be special and beautiful, but really welcoming and comfortable for our guests.”
