Colorado Avalanche defenseman Cale Makar has tied the knot with his longtime partner Tracy Evans this offseason. Makar’s wedding was attended by his current and former teammates and their partners in Boulder.

Among the guests were Josh Manson and his wife Julie, Nathan MacKinnon and his girlfriend Charlotte Walker, and Andrew Cogliano with his wife Allie Bertram. Gabriel Landeskog attended with his wife Melissa Shouldice, while former Avalanche player Darren Helm was with his partner Devon.

Logan O’Connor and partner Kendra Lanuza, Buffalo Sabres’ Bowen Bryam and his girlfriend Kailey Rankin, and Philadelphia Flyers defenseman Erik Johnson and partner Jackie also attended the event.

The ceremony was a blast with Cale and Tracy singing and dancing to the live orchestra. The entire party was grooving to “UpTown Funk,” and Makar can be heard asking for more cowbells from the band.

The couple had a beautiful first dance to James Taylor’s "How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved by You).” Fans couldn’t help but marvel at the Avs D-man’s smooth moves and how happy he looked with his better half.

Cale took to his Instagram after the wedding to shout out to the orchestra. He recorded a short clip in his story, saying:

“Hey guys! Just wanted to jump on here.Tracy and I had such an amazing wedding yesterday. Honestly, all thanks to Stratosphere from Jordan Khan Music company. They were, they were absolutely incredible live band orchestra. Them, with the crowd on the dance floor, everybody was out there. Definitely made the party for every single person.”

Cale Makar and Tracy Evans had a cowboy-themed pre-wedding event

Their pre-wedding event reportedly took place at the Flatirons Golf Course in Boulder on Saturday, where Makar’s current and former teammates and their partners dressed up for the occasion.

The men’s party had wild-west-themed cowboy hats with suits, while the ladies sported country-inspired gowns with the hats. Cale wore a light brown checkered blazer over a crisp white dress shirt, dark blue jeans, and brown cowboy boots and a hat.

Tracy sported a light beige cowboy hat and a vintage white gown. Her dress featured puffed long sleeves with lace details and a deep sweetheart neckline.

Makar proposed to Evans last offseason, away from the media spotlight. Tracy Evans has been an athlete herself. She played basketball competitively during her time at Bownеs High School.
