All about Amanda Dubin and Will Reeve wedding in Miami

Will Reeve has plenty of big moments on camera as an ABC News correspondent.

This month, the spotlight was all about something personal. He and Amanda Dubin are officially married, and the details that have come out so far feel equal parts glamorous and sweet.

Think Miami, close family, and a room full of familiar faces from ABC News, ready to celebrate.

Will Reeve and Amanda Dubin say I do in Miami

Will Reeve, 33, married Amanda Dubin, 29, in Miami on Saturday, Jan. 17. Reeve is the son of the late Superman actor Christopher Reeve and singer Dana Reeve, and he has built his own career in journalism.

Dubin is an event planner, which is a detail that makes the whole wedding story even more fun, because you just know the bar for beautiful celebrations is high.

Their relationship first became public in April 2023. Since then, they have shown up in each other’s Instagram posts often.

That steady, everyday kind of sharing made the engagement and wedding feel like a natural next step, even for people watching from the outside.

A quiet moment before the first look

One of the most touching behind-the-scenes updates came from Amanda’s mom, Victoria Dubin, who posted on Instagram Stories before the ceremony.

She wrote that she was having “a quiet moment” before the big event and shared a quick snapshot of what was happening in real time.

“The bride has just departed for her first look,” she wrote. “She took our breath away, and the emotion her father and I feel is palpable.”

If you have ever been close to a wedding day, you know that exact feeling. The rush of planning suddenly gives way to one calm moment, then everything gets real.

ABC News friends turn the weekend into a celebration

Weddings are about family, but friends can set the tone too. In this case, several of Will’s ABC News colleagues were in Miami for the festivities. Robin Roberts posted a photo on Instagram before the wedding, showing a group gathered around a table with drinks. Amber Laign, Sam Champion, Lara Spencer, and others were there as well.

Roberts wrote, “Pre-party last night before heading to celebrate a beautiful couple say I do!,” and later shared Instagram Stories from the wedding itself. She called it “a magical night celebrating a magical couple” and added “congratulations” to Will and Amanda.

She also posted a photo with Spencer and Laign and kept it simple with, “Cheers to Amanda and Will. “Lara Spencer shared her own post, too, writing: “kickoff to the most precious and perfect wedding. Congratulations, Will and Amanda. We love you guys so much.”

If you have followed this group on TV for years, it is hard not to smile at the idea of them all stepping away from the studio schedule to show up for one of their own.

The proposal was a surprise, with a pretty great cover story

Will and Amanda announced their engagement in a joint Instagram post on Nov. 10, 2024, sharing photos from a romantic New York City proposal that happened on Nov. 8. They captioned the post, “Us.” Simple and very them.

Later, Will explained on Live with Kelly and Mark that he had to get creative to keep the proposal a surprise. As he put it, “there was some misdirection involved,” so Amanda would not see it coming. He told the hosts he disguised the whole thing as “a charity event in Manhattan.” Then he shared what it took to pull it off.

“I was like, ‘We gotta go. We gotta stop by.’ And she was like, ‘This is the dumbest plan that I’ve ever heard.’ And I was like, ‘No, no, it’s fine. It’s fine,’ ” he recalled. “And so we go into this thing, and there’s no charity event, I’d made it up.”

The scene he set was straight out of a movie. “We walk in, and I’d pre-set it with roses and a cellist and a photographer, and we walk in, and she’s like, ‘Oh, it’s beautiful!’ And Amanda starts taking video of the event because she’s an event planner, so she’s getting inspiration,” Will continued. “And I go, ‘You’re going to have to put your phone down now.’ And she goes, ‘Oh my God!’ and then she knew what was happening.”

Even better, their families were waiting upstairs at an “art gallery” to hear the news as soon as it happened. Will later told PEOPLE the night was “the happiest night of our lives and we can’t wait to spend forever together.”

Marrying into an event planning powerhouse

If you are wondering whether Amanda’s event planning background influenced the wedding weekend, you are not alone. In February 2025, Will talked again on Live with Kelly and Mark about the planning talent in Amanda’s family.

Kelly Ripa asked, “Wait, you’re marrying into a double event planner family?” Will replied, “Sure am.” He said Victoria, who is the president and owner of Victoria Dubin Events, has been event planning for “25 years.”

He also described Dubin Events as “a highly sought-after top event planning firm” that creates “extraordinary experiences.”

Mark Consuelos jumped in with, “This is the easiest wedding you’ll ever be part of.” Will fired back with the kind of line that sounds like it came straight from his personality, “I hope it’s the only wedding I’m ever a part of!”

From Paris to forever, and a reminder about love

Will and Amanda first went public in April 2023 with a selfie in front of the Eiffel Tower in Paris. It was romantic, but also casual, like a couple excited to share their life without making it a big production.

And in January 2024, Will summed up what it can feel like when the right person shows up. During a segment on ABC News, he said, “If I can speak personally, it will happen when you least expect it. And you’ll be the happiest you’ll ever be.”

Now, with a Miami wedding behind them and a whole future ahead, that quote lands in a new way. Sometimes the best stories really do sneak up on you.
