Nurse Gets Married During Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl Halftime Show (Yes, Really)

If you blinked during Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show, you might’ve missed one of the wildest, most heart-melting plot twists of the night: a real couple got married. On stage. During halftime.

Yes. Married...and there was cake.

During Bad Bunny’s Apple Music Super Bowl LX halftime performance on February 8, the show paused for a moment. A couple appeared on stage, tied the knot, sat next to a three-tier wedding cake, took a bite, and danced while Bad Bunny sang around them like this was the most normal thing in the world.

Shortly after, PEOPLE confirmed what nurses everywhere were already screaming into their group chats: the groom is a registered nurse.

Meet the Newlyweds (Yes, They’re Real)

The couple is Thomas “Tommy” Wolter and Eleisa “Elli” Aparico...and yes, this was their actual wedding.

Elli later shared a clip of the moment on Instagram, writing, “My heart is so full. This experience has been nothing short of amazing.” Same, honestly.

The Groom Is a Nurse (Of Course He Is)

Tommy Wolter became a registered nurse in March 2021 and earned his BSN from California State University, Fullerton. Which means somewhere out there is a nurse who went from charting and surviving bedside chaos… to getting married during the Super Bowl halftime show.

Career trajectory unlocked.

A Love Story That Escalated Quickly (In the Best Way)

Tommy and Elli started dating in February 2023 and were very publicly in love — the kind of Instagram captions that make you believe in joy again.

For their one-year anniversary, Tommy called Elli his best friend, peace, happiness, and love. Elli responded with “365 days of loving you.” We see you, emotionally available king.

They got engaged in October 2024 in Cannon Beach, Oregon, a normal, romantic proposal… which somehow led to a Super Bowl wedding because life makes zero sense sometimes.

How Did This Even Happen?

Here’s the part that truly feels like a nurse manifestation story. The couple invited Bad Bunny to their wedding. Instead, Bad Bunny invited them to get married during his halftime show.

According to a press release from the singer’s team, the wedding took place live on stage, with Bad Bunny serving as a witness and signing the marriage certificate. There was cake. There was dancing. There was joy. There was absolutely no charting.

After the performance, Tommy posted a clip on Instagram with the caption:
“The best part of the night was getting a wife.”

Sir. We are unwell.

We don’t know what unit Tommy works on, but we do know this:
✨ He clocked out of his shift and clocked into history. ✨

Congrats to Tommy and Elli...proof that sometimes, after all the chaos, life really does give you cake.
