Kyle Juszczyk hit a milestone today: five years since he married Kristin Arceri. The wife of the San Francisco 49ers fullback harkened back to the occasion in an Instagram story.
“5 years today (white heart emoji),” she wrote.
She also shared another story with the eight-time Pro Bowler fullback’s response.
“I love you so much.”
Since that wedding, both have come a long way. Juszczyk reached the Super Bowl for the first time in his career, while his wife took until 2023 to attain fame via her bespoke jackets, which have been worn by Taylor Swift.
In an interview with PEOPLE, Kristin called her husband the number one supporter of her venture:
“He’s just been incredible.”
What happened at Kyle Juszczyk’s wedding to Kristin?
When people think of weddings, they think of morning or afternoon ceremonies where the sun shines brightly. And then there was Kyle Juszczyk’s.
Held at the Cedar Lakes Estate in Upstate New York, it was initially anything but bright and sunny. Kristin recalled to PEOPLE earlier this year that there was a storm at the venue instead, and a frightening event happened.
“It was torrential, downpour, torrential, and as I was having my hair and makeup done for my wedding, lightning literally struck the cabin we were in,” Kristin said. “All my bridesmaids turned to me to see my reaction. I simply replied, ‘It’s sunny outside. What are we talking about? You could get a tan.’ We just chose to ignore it.”
But then something unexpected and miraculous happened just before the couple exchanged vows.
“The clouds just broke out and the rain stopped,” Kristin said. “Even though everyone was drenched from sitting in it before, it was this magical moment just being able to walk down the aisle in the sun, and it kind of was just special.”
Reflecting on the experience, she shared a lesson.
“It goes by so fast. It doesn’t matter how long of a wedding you have, it will never be long enough.”
Almost five years later, the two attended the wedding of Juszczyk’s teammate Christian McCaffrey and 2012 Miss Universe Olivia Culpo in Rhode Island on June 29.
