When Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen tied the knot with actress Hailee Steinfeld last month, numerous of his current and former teammates attended as guests.
Bills tight end Dawson Knox, backup quarterbacks Mitch Trubisky and Shane Buechele, offensive tackles Spencer Brown and Dion Dawkins, wide receiver Khalil Shakir, and kicker Tyler Bass, all joined the weekend festivities with their significant others.
Former Bills players included punter Sam Martin and quarterback Matt Barkley, whose wife, Brittany Barkley, posted numerous behind-the-scenes photos from the Santa Barbara nuptials on Instagram.
Brittany’s photos showed a large Bills crew, past and present, hanging out at the wedding together, including head coach Sean McDermott and his wife, Jamie McDermott.

While Barkley hasn’t played for Buffalo since the 2022 season, the Bills Mafia crew remains close. Jamie McDermott commented on the album, “GORG!!! 😍 Best weekend!! Love y’all!! Xoxoxo.” Bill general manager Brandon Beane’s wife, Hailey Beane, added, “She’s a beauty!!”

Barkley served as Allen’s backup between 2018 and 2020 and returned as a member of the practice squad during the 2022 season. During this time, Barkley and his wife grew close with Allen and his family.
Brittany’s photos from the Bills star’s wedding caught the attention of Allen’s mother, LaVonne Allen, who keeps her Instagram profile private.
LaVonne commented on the post, “The most beautiful wedding with the most gorgeous couples. 🤍💍🎉. Loved seeing all of you looking so dreamy💕.” Brittany replied, “the most perfect day!! Ugh just so much LOVE. Love you 💖💖.”

Allen’s sister-in-law, Delani Allen, also commented, “You are real life Barbie 🩷✨.”
Steinfeld gushed over seeing all their friends and family in one place in her newsletter, Beau Society. “It felt like love was running through the veins of every tree at our gorgeous venue in Santa Barbara. Our family and friends coming together amplified it.”
The night before tying the knot on May 31, Allen and the Oscar-nominated actress had dinner with just their immediate family.
“It was just the fourteen of us; a calm before the festivities. At one point, [her brother] Griffin [Steinfeld] unexpectedly prompted the question, ‘When did you know Hailee and Josh were meant to be together?’ Everyone went around and shared tiny, sweet, thoughtful, and funny observations. It was so special.”

While Steinfeld avoids the jumbotron, she’s attended nearly every Bills game since she first started dating Allen in May 2023. Before the Bills took on the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Divisional round last January, Lindsey Vega, who founded the store Leveled Up Buffalo, revealed on her Instagram Stories that Steinfeld’s parents, Cheri and Peter, were shopping for Bills gear.
This is the same store Steinfeld went shopping with LaVonne Allen, Josh’s mother, ahead of Week 4. Steinfeld and her parents were not shown on the CBS broadcast during the Bills’ 27-24 loss to the Chiefs, nor was Allen’s family. However, fans of the “Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse” star noticed that LaVonne started following Cheri on Instagram.
