However, as the actress recalled the day, she focused on one moment in particular-the instant her NFL MVP saw her in her wedding gown, which led to an immediate and emotional reaction.

“Okay, Josh says we have to talk about my dress now,” Steinfeld said to BEAU SOCIETY. “Because I ‘stunned’ him when I got to the altar. It’s easily the most perfect gown I’ve ever put on my body.

“On our wedding day, when I put on this dress, I actually lost my breath. I’ve never felt more like myself and more beautiful.”

The dress, which she described as transformative, was not just a visual highlight, it carried emotional weight for both the moment, and her hectic schedule that included traveling from the London premiere of Sinners straight to Paris for final fittings.

In a separate portion of her newsletter, Steinfeld discussed the couple’s choice to implement a strict no-phone policy for all wedding guests, made to ensure the moment was fully experienced by everyone in attendance.

“We had the amazing [wedding photographer] Jose Villa and his team with us from Thursday through Sunday to capture all the love,” Steinfeld explained. “We had a no-phone wedding – we wanted everyone to come and be present.

“Looking back, it was one of the best decisions we made. But that meant Jose had his work cut out for him, capturing all the magic for us.”

Allen flashes his ring to reporters

The Bills‘ ace, for his part, has remained reserved about the details, consistent with his preference to keep his personal life largely private.

But even he couldn’t avoid questions when he returned to the Bills facility for mandatory minicamp.

“We’re back to football,” Allen told reporters before flashing his hand. “Got some hardware now. So, good to go.”

When pressed about the emotional whirlwind of the past few months as he became named NFL MVP in February, signed massive contract in March, and got married in May, he offered a rare moment of openness.

“That was the most important decision I’ll make in my life,” Allen said of Steinfeld. “And I made the right one.

As the Bills resume offseason training, the quarterback is once again focused on football, but the significance of his new chapter with Steinfeld isn’t lost, and fans will be eager to see how their romance blossoms in the coming years.
