Ryan Blaney Wedding Details_ After clinching his inaugural NASCAR Cup Series championship, Ryan Blaney set his sights on another significant ring: a wedding ring. Blaney’s engagement to his longtime girlfriend, Gianna Tulio, swiftly followed the culmination of the racing season.
With the offseason affording ample time for wedding planning, Blaney and Gianna wasted no time diving into preparations. Yet, as anyone familiar with wedding planning knows, the process can be more intriguing than fun. The daunting task of agreeing on themes, tablecloths, and seating arrangements often presents a challenge.
For Blaney, navigating these decisions typically involves a wise strategy: deferring to his fiancée’s preferences. “That was – day after [the engagement] we were wedding planning,” Blaney shared with Bob Pockrass of FOX Sports in a recent interview. “We picked our venue out, so we locked that in. So, that was a big part of it. I’m learning how much work goes into wedding planning, it’s a lot. Yeah, picking the venue out was good, that took a lot of weight off our shoulders, Gianna and I.”
Blaney’s approach entails granting Gianna full control while remaining supportive and involved. “I try to just give her the reigns on everything, just do it you’ve got full control of this, but she wants to include me in a lot of it, which is like alright, that’s fine,” he explained. “But I usually just agree with her. She’ll be like ‘What do you think about this?’ and then I’ll just ask her ‘Well, what do you think?’ and then I’ll just agree with whatever she says.”
With the wedding preparations underway, Blaney faces a different kind of challenge ahead, both on and off the NASCAR track.
Meanwhile, as Blaney gears up for his return to Phoenix, the scene of his championship victory, anticipation builds around his performance. Although Blaney didn’t claim the Phoenix championship race, finishing as the runner-up to race winner and newfound rival, Ross Chastain, his presence is eagerly awaited.
Yet, Blaney isn’t the favorite at Phoenix this time around. That distinction belongs to Kyle Larson, who turned heads with an impressive showing at Las Vegas. Larson leads the pack with odds of +550, closely followed by Blaney and potential future brother-in-law, William Byron, both tied at +700. These odds position Blaney ahead of Chastain in terms of favorites for Sunday’s Shriners Children’s 500.
As the weekend approaches, questions loom over the performance of Fords in qualifying speed on the short track and the impact of the new Toyota bodies under the revised package. Blaney’s impending rematch with Chastain at Phoenix adds an extra layer of intrigue. The stage is set for another captivating showdown. Which driver will emerge victorious?
