At the start of the year, we had high expectations for celebrity weddings in 2020. Some of the biggest stars were slated to say "I do" this year, and even another royal wedding was in the works. But as with all weddings in the beginning of 2020, the wonderful world of weddings (and life) took an unexpected turn.
While many couples have recently postponed their big days, some celebrities were able to tie the knot as planned earlier this year. Erin Foster and Simon Tikhman rang in the new decade with a New Year's Eve nuptials in Nashville. Not long after, football players Tim Tebow and J.J. Watt exchanged vows with Demi-Leigh Nel-Peters and Kealia Ohai, respectively.
2020 even gave us a small, but still every bit grand, royal wedding! With just a few more months left in the year, we predict plenty of other celebs will do the same.
We also have a feeling we're going to see a lot more celebrity elopements before 2021 rolls around—and we are so here for it! Ahead, every celebrity couple who wed in 2020...so far!

While Van Ness hasn’t shared much about their boo previously, they posted another series of images to Instagram to give us the low down on their hubby Mark Peacock and their relationship.
“We went on a date in London, which turned into more dates whilst I was on comedy tour,” Van Ness wrote. “At the end of that time I was taking my mom, aunt & friends on a mini break to Amsterdam. I wanted @marklondon to come with but, was it a bit intense to ask Mark to come after a couple weeks worth’s of dates to come meet my mom & and friends on a mini break? Maybe so, but something about Mark felt different and I’m quite sure he felt the same."
