Gabby Windey and Robby Hoffman are sharing all the inside details of their Las Vegas wedding after secretly tying the knot earlier this year.
“I actually can’t believe how perfect it was. It was the best wedding I’ve ever been to,” Hoffman, 35, told Cosmopolitan in an interview published on Wednesday, March 5. “We got to spend our wedding truly together. We love to be together.”
Windey announced in August 2023 that she and Hoffman had been together for three months. Since then, the pair haven’t been shy about sharing their love with the world. When they evacuated from Los Angeles to Las Vegas in January because of the Pacific Palisades fires, the couple decided to get married — but kept it a secret.
“It was just us two. We did everything in two days,” Windey said. “We were just going to show up to a chapel, but then I said, ‘Oh, no. If it’s OK, I actually want you to ask me.’”

After that request, Hoffman started making moves on a proposal, and their wedding journey was officially underway. Keep scrolling for inside look at Windey and Hoffman’s Las Vegas nuptials:
The Engagement
“I had a friend make a crossword. I gave him the clues and the answers, and I said it had to say, ‘WILL YOU MARRY ME, GABBY,’” Hoffman shared. Windey said that “nothing was clicking” when she was doing the crossword puzzle.
“She said yes! And we were engaged for a day,” Hoffman said. Windey added, “We had our engagement dinner at the Wynn buffet over crab legs.”
The Chapel
Hoffman admitted that she looked up the wedding chapels that “good couples” used in Las Vegas. (They tied the knot in the same chapel as Kourtney Kardashian and Travis Barker, who got married in 2022.)
“We did some shopping around for chapels. Robby is really good at admin,” Widney told Cosmo. Hoffman added, “The chapel I found had longer-standing relationships.”
The Outfits
Initially, Windey had plans to channel her inner Kardashian with “casual leather and Prada sunglasses” — but she eventually found the perfect white dress.
“I went into department stores and the first dress I saw on the mannequin was off-white lace, and I was like, ‘This is gonna be it.’ It was the only one they had in stock,” she recalled. “It was a little tight and made my butt look huge, but it was perfect. Everything just fell into place so naturally. It felt so serendipitous and so precious and so meant to be.”
The Photos — And Walking Down the Aisle
The couple spent maybe 15 minutes with their minister, Reverend Nature, who “wore red sneakers.” Windey and Hoffman then spent time with photographer Big Nate.

“Big Nate captured our essence. We walked down the aisle to ‘H-O-T T-O G-O,’ Chappell Roan. He was directing us the whole time,” Windey recalled. “He’d tell Robby, ‘My man, move an inch this way. Now hit a pose.’ But Robby, she always has so much swagger that he was like, ‘You do you.’”
Exchanging Their Vows
The couple didn’t want to make their wedding a “performance,” Windey explained.
“I feel like there can be so much pressure on whoever’s watching you at weddings,” she continued. “We were so nervous just having it be us, too. Even our vows, I’ve never heard you talk so fast.”
Hoffman admitted that they had to reread their vows. “We had no expectations. We just had love and openness,” she said.
The Price
“Our wedding was $799. That included the limousine That included the photos. That included the minister,” Hoffman shared, noting that they opted for “the most expensive wedding package they offered.”
