Overview
- Chantel Everett and Ashley Bowen were married Saturday, Oct. 17, 2026, at Fountainview Mansion in Auburn, Alabama, in front of about 60 guests and a short clip confirming the couple's marriage was shared by TLC.
- The outdoor ceremony featured handwritten vows, a grass aisle strewn with white rose petals, candlelight, and a reception that included a three-tier rainbow-layered cake and a helicopter ride to The St. Regis Atlanta before a Cancun honeymoon.
- Everett wore a custom embellished TTON Couture gown and Bowen wore a bejeweled white suit with sparkling sneakers, and the pair opened their first dance to the song 'She's My Handsome' by 76th Street.
- The service was officiated by Rev. Rickisa Owens and Everett said the openly celebrated same-sex wedding is deeply meaningful as she steps into a new chapter after her widely covered 2022 split from ex-husband Pedro Jimeno.
- The couple were engaged in December at the Renaissance castle Uhuburg in Helen, Georgia, they met through Chantel's brother River, and reporting notes that Jimeno announced an engagement of his own in June 2026 while it remains unconfirmed if the full ceremony was filmed for TLC.
