Fox News hosts Sean Hannity and Ainsley Earhardt celebrated their coming marriage with family, colleagues and President Trump at Mar-a-Lago, putting faith and friendship front and center.

Fox News reported that the pair hosted pre-wedding festivities on Friday at Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, ahead of Saturday’s ceremony. Family, close friends and longtime colleagues filled the club for the gathering.

The couple announced their engagement in December 2024 after Hannity proposed over Christmas at their home church in Florida. Both have deep roots at the network: Hannity has been there since its 1996 launch, while Earhardt joined in 2007 and became a co-host of the top-rated morning program “FOX & Friends” in 2016.

President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump attended, along with Eric Trump and Lara Trump. Hannity made clear why the location mattered.

"I've had a personal relationship with President Trump for over 30 years. When Ainsley and I began planning this celebration, it was important to us that he could be part of this special time in our lives. We chose to host a party at Mar-a-Lago and paid fair market value for the venue. We are grateful that he and Melania could celebrate alongside our families and friends."

Secretary of State Marco Rubio and his wife Jeanette joined the evening, as did Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and actress Cheryl Hines. Sen. Tim Scott, Sen. Darline Graham and U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro were also on hand.

Fox News Media CEO Suzanne Scott and FOX News President and Executive Editor Jay Wallace attended, along with “FOX & Friends” co-hosts Steve Doocy, Lawrence Jones and Brian Kilmeade. The network’s own talent turned out in force for two of its biggest stars, a reminder of the shop’s tight on-air culture that has also shown up in moves like Fox News launching its all-female podcast The Girls.

Other guests included ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith, country music legend Lee Greenwood, podcast host Sage Steele, television personality Jillian Michaels, and Steve and Andrea Wynn. The guest list mixed media, politics and entertainment without apology.

Earhardt spoke of gratitude in plain terms.

"My heart is overflowing with gratitude and joy. To celebrate this beautiful season of our lives surrounded by the people we love most is truly a dream come true. God has blessed us in more ways than we could ever imagine, and I am so thankful that He brought Sean and me together. Our families, our children and our precious friends mean the world to us and sharing this moment with them makes it even more meaningful. We are so excited for this next chapter and know that the very best is yet to come."

Hannity matched that tone.

"Ainsley is an incredible person and I couldn't be happier or more grateful that God brought us together. Faith, family and friendship are what matter most in life and having so many people we love and care about together to celebrate this moment means the world to us. We are incredibly blessed and I can't thank everyone enough for being part of such a special evening."

The New York Post likewise detailed the Mar-a-Lago festivities and the couple’s December 2024 engagement announcement, underscoring the same circle of family, Fox colleagues and high-profile supporters.

Saturday brought the wedding itself. Fox News later reported that Earhardt and Hannity married at the Church of Bethesda-by-the-Sea in Palm Beach, the same church where he proposed. The bride wore an Oscar de la Renta gown. Readings came from Romans 12 and the Song of Solomon. A reception followed at the Everglades Club.

Guests at the wedding and reception again included Fox executives and hosts, Lara Trump, Eric Trump, Karoline Leavitt and Ron DeSantis. The through-line stayed consistent: faith first, then family and the people who had walked with them. That same Fox orbit has continued to draw strong conservative voices, including when Karoline Leavitt landed a Fox News contributor role after her White House service.

In a joint statement after the ceremony, the newlyweds said their hearts were overflowing with love and gratitude as they began life as husband and wife. Exchanging vows in their home church, surrounded by children, families and dearest friends, meant more than they could have imagined. Their faith, they said, had always sat at the center of the relationship; they believe God brought them together.

The weekend reflected priorities many working Americans still recognize, church, kids, long friendships and a willingness to say those things out loud. Fox continues to give airtime to that worldview even as it adds fresh faces, whether through contributor deals or new programming plans such as those around Jesse Watters Primetime and new on-air talent.

Hannity’s three-decade friendship with Trump and the decision to pay fair market value for Mar-a-Lago kept the personal and the professional in clear view. No drama, no distance, just a couple who wanted the people who matter in the room.

In an industry that often treats faith and traditional milestones as awkward footnotes, Earhardt and Hannity put both at the center and invited the country to watch. That choice still lands with the audience that built Fox in the first place.
