Zach Werenski, alternate captain of the Columbus Blue Jackets, and his fiancée Odette Peters are gearing up for their upcoming wedding this summer. Over the weekend, Odette celebrated her bridal shower surrounded by loved ones.
Odette took to her Instagram to share snippets from the special event. One picture showcased a beautifully decorated table at her bridal shower, adorned with elegant floral arrangements, framed engagement photos, champagne flutes, and a fun game card titled “Sketch That Dress” for guests to guess her wedding attire.
Another story reposted by Odette featured her in a stunning white lace dress with a high slit, standing between two guests. The caption on her friend Jenna’s story read, “T-70 days 💍. can’t wait to celebrate my sis 🤍.”
In the final story, Odette was seen in her bridal shower dress, surrounded by three close family and friends in a wood-paneled room, raising a toast to her special day.
Earlier this year, Odette embarked on a trip to New York City in search of her dream wedding dress. She shared updates on her Instagram stories, including a visit to the designer store Galia Lahav and Jaxon James Couture Bridal, where she found her gown. A handwritten note from the store congratulated Odette on her find.
Zach and Odette have been together for seven years, celebrating their anniversary in September 2024. The couple got engaged in May last year during a trip to Barcelona, Spain.
After the tragic passing of Zach’s former teammate and close friend Johnny Gaudreau in a car accident last year, Zach and Odette have been a pillar of support for Johnny’s widow, Meredith Gaudreau, and her children. Meredith shared a photo of Zach and Odette’s wedding invite on her social media, expressing excitement for the upcoming nuptials.
As the wedding day approaches, Zach and Odette are eagerly preparing for their new chapter together. Their love story is a beautiful testament to the bond they share, both on and off the ice.
