The Arizona State Fair isn’t just about thrilling rides, games, and incredible food, it’s also a place where love stories unfold!
Every year, the Fair acts as the perfect backdrop for a classic fall date night. You can spot couples of all ages sharing cozy moments on the Sky Ride, tasting new treats, and capturing memories in a photo booth. It’s where countless first dates happen and where many couples choose to have a huge life moment: a proposal.
This year, however, falling in love at the Fair took on an even bigger, more beautiful meaning.
“I Do” Under the Midway Lights
On Sunday, October 26th, the final day of the 2025 Fair, an actual wedding ceremony took place right on the Fairgrounds!
While a few impromptu ceremonies have happened here over the years, this was the first time a wedding was officially contracted and planned by the Arizona State Fair Staff.
The lucky couple, Jack and Jenny Albini, share a deep history with the Fair, having attended together at least twice a year throughout their dating life. They decided there was no better place to get married than the location that had brought them so many lasting, happy memories.
From Instagram Message to “I Do”
To make their dream a reality, Jenny & Jack decided to take a shot in the dark and reached out to the Arizona State Fair via an Instagram message. Little did she know that this simple inquiry would lead to her wedding taking place during the Fair just weeks later!
The ceremony included the beautiful traditions of a classic champagne toast and cake cutting. But in true Fair fashion, the night closed out with rides, carnival games and the VIP cabana experience, giving them a fun and unique ending to their special day.
