Bubba Wallace is one of the most popular drivers in NASCAR. The 23XI Racing driver was the center of attraction at the end of 2022. After dating for five years, Wallace and Amanda Carter married on New Year’s eve last year. The couple had gotten engaged in July 2021. They went ahead with the marriage ceremony before the new season of NASCAR kicked off.
The couple had a grand and lavish wedding ceremony at the JW Marriott in Charlotte, North Carolina. With more than 250 guests attending their special day, there was very little chance of not seeing any other NASCAR driver at the event. Ryan Blaney was the groomsman while Dale Earnhardt Jr, Daniel Suarez, and William Byron were also present.

Despite the amazing celebration, there is one thing Bubba Wallace wishes he would have done differently.
Bubba Wallace would have preferred less promotion

That being said, the couple went full-fledged in promoting the most important day of their lives. Reflecting on that, Wallace recently told Fox Sports, “I question why we did it.”
However, he went on to acknowledge how important it was for Amanda. The 29-year-old added, “I can’t even give one percent of my effort into the wedding. It was all her idea. It was all her vision. And she blew it out of the water. It was incredible.” He was certainly glad that it all went as planned and that Amanda enjoyed it.
