**Headline: Mary Lou Retton’s Daughter, Emma Kelley, Marries College Sweetheart in Dallas Floral Fairytale**

**Dallas, TX** – Emma Kelley, 22, the youngest daughter of Olympic gymnast Mary Lou Retton, married her college sweetheart, Hudson Clark, 24, in a lavish ceremony at the Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden on Sunday, June 29. The couple, who met as students at the University of Arkansas, exchanged vows in front of 184 guests.

The bride envisioned a “summer floral theme” for her special day, which came to life at the Arboretum’s Crape Myrtle Allee. “[It] draws me,” the bride said. “My favorite color is pink, so the trees are pink, and it’s an archway of trees where I’m walking down the aisle, so it was a no-brainer.” The groom is a professional football player who signed with the Las Vegas Raiders as an undrafted free agent in May.

Emma walked down the aisle, escorted by her father, Shannon Kelley, in a strapless, “princess-style” Jenny Yoo gown. The wedding party included 15 bridesmaids, including Emma’s three sisters, and 14 groomsmen.

Following a ceremony that included personal vows and a family prayer, guests celebrated at Rosine Hall, enjoying hors d’oeuvres and a dinner featuring salad, sun-dried tomato chicken, braised roast beef and roasted garlic mashed potatoes catered by Culinary Art Catering. The cake was vanilla-flavored and in the shape of the Arkansas Razorbacks football stadium.

The couple met after Emma messaged Hudson after a Razorbacks game. Three and a half years later, Hudson proposed on June 28, 2024.

Retton gave a special toast before the wedding cake was cut. Emma gushed about her husband, calling him humble and a “good partner for my life,” and stated they hope to start a large family in the future.
