Jersey Shore star Jenni ‘JWoww’ Farley marries former AEW wrestler
Jersey Shore star Jenni ‘JWoww’ Farley has officially tied the knot with former AEW wrestler Zack Clayton.
In a surprise wedding hosted on Wednesday, June 24, 2026, Farley married professional wrestler Zack Carpinello, aka Zack Clayton.
The Jersey Shore star invited 50 guests to what they believed was a special screening for her upcoming film, Nanny Cam. However, the 50 guests who arrived at Madison Modern Social expecting a movie screening swiftly realized that they were instead attending the couple’s Beauty and the Beast-inspired wedding.
“We envisioned a small, meaningful celebration focused on the people who matter most to us,” Farley tells PEOPLE after surprising her guests. “We weren’t interested in throwing the biggest wedding possible. We wanted an unforgettable moment shared with our closest family and friends. The goal was creating memories, not creating a production.”
When the guests arrived at Madison Modern Social expecting the special screening, they were instead greeted by the local mayor, who was also acting as the wedding officiant.
“We’ve spent months keeping this secret, creating invitations, planning the movie-themed details, and building the surprise. Seeing our family and friends go from thinking they’re attending a special screening for Nanny Cam to realizing they’re actually at our wedding will be a moment we’ll never forget,” the newly married couple further shared with PEOPLE.
Instead of the traditional walking down the aisle, the couple selected something different for their wedding. Carpinello, 31, entered to “The Name’s Bond..James Bond,” composed by David Arnold for Casino Royale. While Farley, 41, chose Lana Del Rey’s “Young and Beautiful.”
Carpinello is a former AEW wrestler, where he wrestled from 2020 until 2023. Still actively wrestling, Clayton is currently active in the indies. While Farley is a popular film and reality TV star.
