Sometimes love moves quietly. Other times it speeds down the Monaco coastline in a 1957 Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa.
Charles Leclerc and Alexandra Saint Mleux have officially confirmed what fans suspected for days. The couple tied the knot in a civil ceremony in Monaco on February 28, 2026, and they have now shared a closer look at the celebration that turned the internet into detectives overnight.
But here is the twist. This was only part one.
Leclerc posted a series of images and videos on Instagram, giving followers an inside look at the ceremony. The setting was intimate, attended by their closest friends and family. The mood felt refined and understated, fitting for a civil wedding in the principality he calls home.
The couple exchanged vows in a ceremony that appeared emotional yet simple. One video captured the moment Leclerc slipped the wedding band onto Alexandra’s finger before sealing it with a kiss. No theatrics. No spectacle.
Leclerc later described it as “a day we’ll forever remember,” confirming that this marked their official civil wedding. He also made it clear that this was just the beginning, writing that part one was complete and part two would follow next year with all of their close ones.
Alexandra echoed the sentiment in her own post, calling the day a dream and adding that she could not wait to marry him all over again next year.
A sequel wedding. Monaco, but make it continued.
For the ceremony, Alexandra wore an off shoulder embroidered gown that shimmered subtly in the Mediterranean light. The design, created by Paolo Sebastian, balanced glamour and softness. She styled her hair in a sleek bun and carried a bouquet of white blooms that complemented the coastal backdrop.
Graff jewelry added a polished finish to the look, while Leo, their dachshund, made multiple scene stealing appearances. In some photos, he lounged on the train of her dress. In others, he perched inside the Ferrari as if fully aware of the moment’s significance.
Leclerc chose a light gray suit with a crisp, modern cut. Together, they looked coordinated without feeling overly styled.
And then there was the exit.
The couple drove off in a red 1957 Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa convertible, a model considered one of the most historically important Ferraris ever made. For a Ferrari driver to leave his own wedding in such a car feels less like a flex and more like poetic alignment.

Monaco rarely disappoints.
The wedding comes just months after their engagement announcement in November 2025. At the time, Leclerc shared images of a romantic proposal surrounded by red rose petals shaped into a heart. Their dachshund Leo even wore a custom tag that read, “Dad wants to marry you.”
Leclerc captioned that post with “Mr². & Mrs. Leclerc,” hinting at a future that has now officially begun.
Shortly after the wedding photos were released, Alexandra updated her Instagram bio to read “Alexandra Leclerc,” subtly confirming the name change without an elaborate statement.
The pair were first linked in March 2023 and confirmed their relationship later that year. Since then, Alexandra has been a steady presence at race weekends, supporting Leclerc throughout the highs and lows of Formula 1 life.
Civil weddings are often practical. They handle the legalities. They allow couples to formalize their union without the pressure of a large scale event. For Leclerc, whose racing calendar resumes with the Australian Grand Prix in early March, timing likely played a role.
The Formula 1 season is relentless. Once it begins, the calendar rarely slows down. Hosting a full scale wedding during race season would be nearly impossible.
By choosing to hold a civil ceremony now and planning a larger celebration next year, the couple gains both intimacy and anticipation.
Part one was official. Part two promises to be expansive.
And if Monaco was the backdrop for the civil ceremony, the possibilities for the next celebration are endless.
The couple kept the ceremony private yet chose to share curated glimpses afterward. It felt controlled but not calculated.
They allowed the moment to belong to them first. Then they invited the world in.
In an era where celebrity weddings can become full scale productions before the vows are even exchanged, this approach feels refreshing. A civil ceremony, a handful of heartfelt posts, and a promise of another celebration to come.
The story unfolds in chapters.
Charles Leclerc may be chasing podium finishes, but he just secured a different kind of first place.
A civil wedding in Monaco. A vintage Ferrari exit. A second wedding already on the horizon.
It is proof that even in the high speed world of Formula 1, love still knows how to take its time.
