Matthew Stafford met his future wife, Kelly Stafford (née Hall) at The University of Georgia, according to Life & Style. In an absolutely perfect romance, Matthew was playing football for the Bulldogs while Kelly was a cheerleader. Following his college football career, Matthew became the No. 1 pick in the NFL draft of 2009, according to Paper City, and joined the Detroit Lions.
Matthew proposed in 2014, per Closer Weekly, and the two got married in April 2015 in Atlanta. Their wedding was major. Guests had to check their cell phones, according to Paper City, and every guest got a hat and the opportunity to have it designed by an airbrush artist. Why a hat, you ask? “Matthew has always needed a hat to pull over his face while he’s on the dance floor,” his wife joked. “Whenever I asked him to dance, he would say, ‘I really just need my hat.'” It gets even better. Guests also got a new pair of kicks and since Matthew was sponsored by Nike, there was a Nike bar so that guests could slip into something more comfortable on the dance floor. Not a bad wedding at all.
