The bride, who appeared on Bravo’s Real Housewives of Miami, wore a sleeveless gown with a plunging lace bodice. The bridesmaids, including Joanna Krupa, accompanied the bride in pink floor-length pieces. The wedding as held in Nazareth, where the Andretti family resides. (The brood is legendary in the racing world, beginning with the father of the groom, Michael Andretti.)
The couple first got engaged in February 2016. However, they had to work around the groom’s work schedule before securing a date. “I feel bad [about] it, but we have to wait on the 2017 IndyCar schedule before we can set a date,” he told People last May. “Obviously we want to do it right after that.”
