Ryan Blaney and his fiancé, Gianna Tulio, are set to tie the knot soon after celebrating a cowboy-themed pre-wedding event in Aspen, Colorado. Tulio shared glimpses of the celebration on social media, reposting photos and videos from guests who attended the festivities held at the historic Jerome Hotel.
The couple’s relationship became public in 2020 during Blaney’s third season with Team Penske, and they announced their engagement in December 2023. Tulio, a Hooters model, received heartfelt messages from close friends, including fellow model Eden Davis, who wrote, “Today’s the day we get to see the most beautiful girl become a wife […] we love you so much!!!” Blaney also shared a few wedding day stories on his social media.
This wedding follows a remarkable 2024 NASCAR Cup Series season for Blaney, who finished as the runner-up to his Team Penske teammate Joey Logano. Logano claimed his third championship while Blaney ended the season as a top competitor. The No. 12 Ford Mustang driver will remain with Team Penske alongside Logano and Austin Cindric for the upcoming 2025 season.
Leading up to the wedding, Tulio offered sneak peeks into her preparations through her Instagram. She revealed details about her wedding attire, including Valentino Garavani pumps and a dress from the renowned New York-based brand Berta. In addition, she showcased her customized nails done by North Carolina nail artist Bianca, who expressed her excitement, saying, “Praying for the sweetest and most joyous day of love and blessings!” Tulio’s final pre-wedding post was captioned, “Ready for Aspen.”
Blaney and Tulio’s nuptials mark a joyous occasion as Blaney prepares for his 10th full-time season in NASCAR’s premier series. Since debuting with Wood Brothers Racing before joining Team Penske, the 30-year-old driver has achieved 13 Cup Series wins, 81 top-five finishes, and 149 top-10 finishes. He claimed his first Cup Series championship in 2023 and has been a consistent force in the sport.
With Team Penske entering the 2025 season as the defending champions for the third consecutive year, Blaney is poised to continue his success. He will kick off the season at the Daytona 500 on February 16, leading Team Penske’s strong lineup as they aim for another championship year.
