Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett celebrated his marriage to Amy Paternoster this past weekend with a lavish wedding in their home state of New Jersey. The festivities, held at the Pleasantdale Chateau in West Orange, offered a touch of Steelers spirit amidst the celebration.
The couple, who have known each other since their youth through shared athletic training, reconnected during a college break and their relationship blossomed from there. Pickett shared this story in a recent interview, reflecting on their journey from childhood acquaintances to husband and wife.
A notable detail from the wedding was a large ice sculpture of the Steelers logo, displayed prominently near the reception's raw bar. This unique touch, shared on social media by Pickett's former quarterbacks coach, Tony Racioppi, subtly incorporated the team's presence despite Pickett's temporary pause from offseason training.
The wedding follows their engagement in January 2022, a moment Pickett commemorated with a heartfelt Instagram post expressing his love and anticipation for their future together.
As Pickett embarks on his second season with the Steelers, he brings with him the momentum of a rookie year that saw him throw for 2,404 yards and 7 touchdowns, along with 3 rushing touchdowns. He'll be looking to build on this foundation and continue his development as the Steelers' quarterback.
