This weekend, Oilers forward Leon Draisaitl and his partner, Celeste Desjardins, tied the knot in a destination wedding in France. The event was attended by several of his current and even former teammates, including Evander Kane, Connor Brown and Warren Foegele, alongside their partners.

On Sunday, Evander Kane’s fiancee, Mara Teigen, shared a series of Instagram stories from the wedding day. The event took place at a grand château estate, where Mara and Evander posed together in front of the elegant venue. Mara wore a floor-length black dress with large purple floral prints, while Evander sported a black suit and sunglasses.

In another story, Mara posted a candid moment from the outdoor reception seated beside Evander at the dinner table. She captioned the shot:

She accessorized her outfit with a green crocodile Hermès Birkin bag and wore black sunglasses. The final photo showed Mara posing with Zach Hyman’s wife, Alannah, Connor Brown’s wife, Madison and Adam Henrique’s wife, Lauren.

Madison also posted a set of Instagram stories from Leon Draisaitl and Celeste Desjardins’ wedding. In one of the clips, she filmed the bride and groom making their grand entrance into the outdoor reception area, holding hands and smiling as guests cheered. Celeste wore a sleek ivory satin gown with a plunging neckline, while Leon sported a sharp black suit.

The second story featured Madison herself posing with Connor Brown on the garden lawn. Connor wore a charcoal tuxedo with a black bow tie and sunglasses, while Madison was in a sleeveless shimmery floor-length gown with a multicolored pattern.

The final story she posted showed an intimate moment during the speeches. Madison captioned it, writing:

“A special day for two people we love 🤍,” tagging both Celeste and Leon.

Taken from behind, it captured Leon with his arm around Celeste at the head table as they listened to someone speak at the mic.

LA Kings forward and ex-Oiler Warren Foegele was also present at the event with his wife, Alexandra. The couple recently got married in a gala wedding celebration, which was attended by Leon and Celeste earlier last month.

On Sunday, Alexandra shared several Instagram stories from the wedding celebrations in the French countryside.
