Elle King, 37, married Dan Tooker in a rustic outdoor ceremony in Tennessee on Saturday, posting photos to Instagram the next day with the caption 'Husband and wife. Best day of my life.' A friend walked her down the aisle — her father, comedian Rob Schneider, from whom she is estranged, was absent from the occasion. The couple's two young sons, Lucky Levi, five, and Royal, 19 months, wore matching suits to their dad's.

King and Tooker, 35, first met in 2019 when she visited his tattoo shop, got engaged in 2020, then briefly split in 2023 before reconciling in 2024.

Chelsea Handler called King a 'beautiful babe' in the comments, with Kyle Richards and Meghan Trainor among the celebrities offering congratulations.

Tooker's Instagram Story showed the newlyweds singing a karaoke version of Paul Simon's '50 Ways to Leave Your Lover' and a mariachi band covering Guns N' Roses' 'Sweet Child O' Mine'.
