Sarah Hyland & Wells Adams Say “I Do” in a Vineyard Vows
Picture this: a sun‑kissed Californian vineyard, the sound of a wine barrel swirling in the breeze, and two people who used to communicate only through Facebook DM messages now exchanging a ring‑binding “forever” promise. That’s the scene when Sarah Hyland (31) and Wells Adams (38) tied the knot on Saturday, August 20.
Celebrity Guests Show Up
Modern Family fans had to be on the “inside” of the wedding because the cast made an appearance. Sofia Vergara and Jesse Tyler Ferguson—alongside the star Mrs. Walters—were among the squad bringing laughs, clinking glasses, and a whole lot of “how‑dare‑you?” vibes. Sofia even got a behind‑the‑scenes cap to share on Instagram, tagging the posts with #sarahandwells wedding. (sic) (yes, the subtle irony is intact).
Love Story in the Wine Country
- Sarah’s former co‑star role as Haley Dunphy, the “only annoying older sister” type, added a touch of humor to the bouquet swaps.
- They started talking back in 2017 after a knock‑knock direct message from Wells that turned into a full‑blown “we’re a couple” storyline.
- Their engagement in 2019 felt like a pre‑wedding countdown… until the COVID‑19 curveball kept rolling.
Why the Vineyard? The Pandemic Playbook
In 2020, Wells was honest: “There were no wedding plans. We were just wondering if any of the plans should stay solidified with everything up in the air.” For the couple, the big moment had to wait, and they turned every postponement into a “just keep calm and brew on” attitude.
They had fully booked a bridal shower in June, showing that they still had the urge to celebrate, even if the big ceremony was still waiting for the day when COVID let them out. Instead of slacking off with a Zoom “wedding” (which Wells had literally ruled out), they planned a more intimate, low‑key ceremony that kept it real and kept the audience from buffering.
Wells’ Future Wedding Vision
Wells humorously suggested that if the pandemic persisted “for a really, really long time,” a backyard sort of shindig might be the plan. The couple’s history with “small backyard thing” plans adds a light‑hearted, ‘we’ll take it when it’s time’ tone to their wedding wrap‑up.
Congratulations, Lovebirds!
While the wedding was a quiet affair at a scenic vineyard, it was packed with love, laughs, and a sprinkle of the TV show magic that fans adore. And there’s nothing quite like seeing a familiar face—be it from Modern Family or a huge Instagram profile—celebrate a lifelong commitment in real life. We’re all cheering for their future chapters, full of laughter and maybe a few more DM emojis—just saying…!
