Fox News hosts Sean Hannity and Ainsley Earhardt marked the countdown to their wedding with a star-studded rehearsal dinner at President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago resort, bringing together family, friends and some of the most recognizable names in politics and media.
The couple hosted the Friday pre-wedding celebration in Palm Beach, Fox News Digital reported, welcoming political figures, media personalities and loved ones for an evening honoring the beloved pair.
President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump were in attendance, joined by Eric Trump and Lara Trump.
Several members of the Trump administration also joined the festivities. Secretary of State Marco Rubio, Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro were all on the guest list.
Hannity, whose friendship with the president spans decades, explained to Fox News Digital why the couple chose to hold the celebration at the president’s Florida resort.
“I’ve had a personal relationship with President Trump for over 30 years,” Hannity said. “When Ainsley and I began planning this celebration, it was important to us that he could be part of this special time in our lives. We chose to host a party at Mar-a-Lago and paid fair market value for the venue. We are grateful that he and Melania could celebrate alongside our families and friends.”
The Fox News family turned out in force for the occasion. Fox News Media CEO Suzanne Scott and Fox News President Jay Wallace were among the guests, as were Earhardt’s “Fox & Friends” co-hosts Steve Doocy, Lawrence Jones and Brian Kilmeade.
The guest list stretched beyond the network as well. ESPN commentator Stephen A. Smith and country music star Lee Greenwood were on hand to celebrate the couple, along with Sen. Graham, R-S.C., and Sen. Tim Scott, R-S.C.
Earhardt and Hannity first announced their engagement in December 2024, and Friday’s gathering offered a joyful preview of the big day ahead.
For Earhardt, the evening was about faith, family and the people closest to the couple’s hearts.
“To celebrate this beautiful season of our lives surrounded by the people we love most is truly a dream come true,” Earhardt told Fox News Digital. “God has blessed us in more ways than we could ever imagine, and I am so thankful that he brought Sean and me together. Our families, our children, and our precious friends mean the world to us, and sharing this moment with them makes it even more meaningful.”
The celebration capped off a busy day for the president, who held a rally in Fort Myers, Florida, on Friday afternoon before heading to Palm Beach.
According to White House pool reports, the president said earlier in the evening that he was on his way to a “big beautiful thing” for Hannity and Earhardt at Mar-a-Lago.
With the president, top administration officials, network leadership and longtime colleagues all gathered under one roof, the rehearsal dinner served as a fitting tribute to a couple who have become two of the most familiar faces on cable news, and who now prepare to begin their next chapter together surrounded by the people who matter most to them.
