Congrats! Misty Copeland Is Now A Married Woman

The groundbreaking ballerina, and first-ever Black woman in the history of American Ballet Theatre to be promoted to principal dancer, married Olu Evans in a romantic ceremony with an ocean view on Sunday. The site reports they exchanged vows by the water, and decorated the area with pink hydrangeas and white roses.

The inspiring ballet dancer and her new husband Wednesday at the Montage Hotel with a ceremony overlooking the ocean. The bride wore an Inbal Dror gown and donned Christian Louboutin shoes.

She continued, “So I feel like I get to become a fairy princess on stage and wear incredible costumes and gowns to galas”. So it’s not like this is my chance to be that way, because that’s something I do every day, almost. News, our September 2015 cover star swapped “I Do’s” with Evans in the presence of 100 family and friends. “I don’t think I want to go super poofy or anything like that”.

It certainly would’ve been fun to see her walk down the aisle in a tutu, but we’re glad Misty had an idea of what she wanted and made it happen.
