Actress Vanessa Hudgens, 34, and professional baseball player Cole Tucker, 27, have officially tied the knot! The couple exchanged vows on Saturday in a dreamy ceremony held in Tulum, Mexico, according to sources confirming to PEOPLE.
Rumors of their relationship started swirling in November 2020 when they were spotted holding hands in Los Angeles. They announced their engagement in February and have since been sharing glimpses of their love story on social media.
The wedding speculation gained momentum over the weekend when a photo of Hudgens on the beach in Tulum surfaced on social media, and her High School Musical co-star Monique Coleman posted a video showcasing the tropical setting.
The couple, who initially connected through a Zoom meditation group call, has been open about their whirlwind romance. Hudgens revealed on The Drew Barrymore Show in May 2021 that she took the initiative by sliding into Tucker’s DMs after spotting him on the Zoom call. The two made their red carpet debut in November 2021 at the premiere of Hudgens’ film Tick… Tick… Boom!
In the months leading up to their wedding, the couple shared adorable moments on Instagram, offering fans a glimpse into their love story. From cozy Earth Day hugs to a sweet Valentine’s Day kiss, their social media posts radiate the joy of their relationship.
Despite the excitement of impending nuptials, Hudgens admitted that wedding planning was challenging. In a conversation with Drew Barrymore, she expressed uncertainty about the venue and even considered the idea of eloping.
Hudgens’ surprise engagement took place in a way she didn’t expect, leaving her emotional and overjoyed. She told PEOPLE in March that the moment caught her off guard, and she was “bawling my eyes out.”
During an appearance on Today with Hoda & Jenna in April, Hudgens shared her feelings about being engaged, describing it as “amazing” and emphasizing the sense of security it brought. She knew Tucker was “the one” early in their relationship, even telling her sister after their first weekend together that she had found her future husband.
The couple celebrated their love with a bachelorette weekend in Aspen, Colorado, in October, where friends, including Sarah Hyland, joined in the pre-wedding festivities.
While representatives for Hudgens and Tucker have not commented on the wedding, fans and well-wishers are excited for the newlyweds as they embark on this new chapter of their lives. Congratulations to the happy couple!
