Derek Hough and Hayley Erbert are married! The “Dancing With the Stars” judge and the professional dancer tied the knot on August 26, 2023, in Monterey, California.

“We’re in a redwood forest, but we got married right in front of is this mother tree that’s surrounded by all these smaller trees. They drop all the seeds, and it plants kind of like an army of children to protect the mother. The symbolism of it was beautiful. We’re here, planting our seeds to grow our family,” Erbert told People magazine of the ceremony.

Hough previously revealed that he and Erbert would be exchanging vows in August 2023, though he didn’t share the exact date.

“The wedding is also this fall. August,” Hough told Billy Bush during an interview with Extra. “It’s the first time I’ve said that actually, so I’m probably going to get in trouble from the wife,” he added.

As the weeks went by, many “Dancing With the Stars” fans knew that the couple would tie the knot on the last weekend of the month — since it’s the only weekend left.
