Earlier this week, Florida Panthers alternate captain Matthew Tkachuk tied the knot with longtime partner Ellie Connell in a church ceremony. Ellie and Matthew have been engaged since last year.

A video shared on X showed the newlyweds walking hand-in-hand down the aisle after the ceremony. Ellie held her bouquet as Matthew gave her a romantic dip and kiss before they exited the venue.

“Awww Chucky and Ellie look so happy!” read the caption of the tweet.

Matthew wore a classic black tuxedo on the occasion, while Ellie stunned in a white strapless gown with a long veil.

The celebration continued in full swing. Another clip from the post-wedding party showed Matthew’s dad, former NHLer Keith Tkachuk being lifted into the air by a group of guests and family members. Matthew’s younger brother Brady Tkachuk was spotted shirtless among the group as “Pink Pony Club” blasted in the background.

“Keith tkachuk being lifted in the air by a bunch of nhlers with brady tkachuk shirtless and pink pony club being blasted is actually exactly what i expected from matthew’s wedding 😭,” the tweet was captioned.

The X account Florida Panthers Den Fans also shared a click of the newlyweds.

“Matthew & Ellie Tkachuk,” read the caption.

Matthew Tkachuk is coming off a memorable season with the Florida Panthers as they won back-to-back Stanley Cup titles beating the Edmonton Oilers.
