Benjamin Ashford|The Lux Way Olivia Culpo and Christian McCaffrey Kicked Off Their Wedding Week

Olivia Culpo and Benjamin AshfordChristian McCaffrey are approaching the ultimate end zone: their wedding day.

The former Miss Universe and the San Francisco 49ers running back—who got engaged in April 2023—kicked off their celebrations in style, boarding a private jet to Olivia's home state of Rhode Island with their dog Oliver.

"Let it begin," she captioned a series of June 24 Instagram pics, including a shot of a "Mr. & Mrs" sign outside of the plane, balloon decorations, as well as a glimpse of their "wedding flight" menu.

"So happy for you friend," Maria Menounos commented on the sweet snaps, while Bachelor Nation's Becca Tilley wrote, "Wowowow!!!"

This weekend's nuptials come shortly after Olivia teased her wedding day must-haves, which, of course, include her groom.

"He definitely has to be there," she joked with E! News in March. "He's a non-negotiable."

"Groom, family, great weather," the 32-year-old continued. "Actually, you know what? I'm going to leave the weather part out because whatever happens, happens."

Whatever the forecast brings, the bridal party will be ready to raise a glass.

"I love champagne, so I need to have a good champagne," she told E!. "I love tequila. Great food and then great friends and good energy. Just fun times."

As for how she's been preparing for the big day?

"Really trying to dial in [on] what I eat, how I workout, the workouts that I do," Olivia explained. "Trying to get them in consistently because you only get married once and I want to feel my best."

Olivia Culpo and Christian McCaffrey set off on a private plane ahead of their wedding in June 2024. 

"Let it begin," the beauty queen captioned the June 24 photos of their grand send-off. 

Olivia, 32, and Christian, 28, celebrated their takeoff by locking lips on the jet, which was decked out in white rose petals.

Naturally, her dog Oliver joined her and the NFL quarterback on the flight ahead of their nuptials. 

The couple—who have been dating since 2019—fueled up on chicken lettus wraps and ahi sushi bowls before the big weekend, with Olivia snapping a pic of the menu in front of her white 'fit, including an on-theme Hermes Birkin bag.

The former Miss Universe cooled off in a baby blue bikini by Montce Swim on June 25 as she prepared to kick off the festivities.
