Maple Leafs star Mitch Marner ties the knot in NOTL

The wedding was acted as a summer reunion of current and former members of the Toronto Maple Leafs

It seems the Toronto Maple Leafs like to get married in Niagara-on-the-Lake. 


Following in the footsteps of team captain John Tavares, who married Aryne Fuller in 2018 at Peller Estates Winery, 26-year-old right winger and alternate captain Mitch Marner and his longtime girlfriend Stephanie LaChance tied the knot Saturday at the exact same venue. 


Reports say a number of current and former members of the Toronto Maple Leafs were in attendance, including Tyler Bozak, Connor Brown, Connor Carrick, Kyle Clifford, Jake Gardiner, Justin Holl, Nazem Kadri, Matt Martin, Auston Matthews, Jake Muzzin, Morgan Rielly and James van Riemsdyk.

As well, NHL sure-fire hall-of-famers Joe Thornton and his wife Tabea Pfendsack, as well as Patrick Marleau and his wife Christina, were at the wedding.

The Local’s attempts to attain more information about the nuptials from Peller Estates were fruitless. A reporter was told that employees there were asked to sign non-disclosure agreements prior to the event. A request to speak to someone in Peller’s management returned a “no comment” reply. 

There are reports that the rehearsal dinner was held next door at Two Sisters Winery. The ceremony was conducted at Riverbend, while the celebration of the wedding took place at Peller Estates. 

A number of guests shared photos of the wedding on Instagram, many of them taken with the vineyards of Niagara-on-the-Lake as the backdrop.
