Leon Draisaitl and Celeste Desjardins got married on August 2, 2025, in South of France. The wedding was attended by family, friends, and several NHL players, including Connor McDavid and his wife, Lauren Kyle.

Other guests included current and former Oilers teammates such as Zach Hyman and Evander Kane, who attended with his fiancee, Mara Teigen. McDavid and Lauren had their own wedding a year earlier, on July 27, 2024, at Old Woman Island on Lake Muskoka.

The two couples have shared many happy moments recently, both in their personal lives and in their hockey careers. On Monday, McDavid signed a two year, $25 million contract extension with Edmonton, which begins in 2026–27 season.

After the news, Draisaitl spoke about his teammate’s new deal and called McDavid “the heart and soul” of the team.

“Obviously very excited," Draisaitl said on Tuesday. "You know, every negotiation is its own project, its own time, but for us as an organization, obviously he's the heart and soul of a group and of our team. So, you know, getting the chance to chase it down for three more years at least, you know, is obviously amazing.”
