Amber Craven and Vinny Cagungun have tied the knot after getting engaged during The Amazing Race.

“From The Amazing Race to traveling the country as CRNA nurses to tying the knot in Mexico – these two have had an amazing journey together and it’s only just beginning,” read the caption of the couple’s wedding video shared via Instagram on Sunday, November 10. “Amber & Vincent hosted a three-day celebration in Cabo San Lucas surrounded by loving friends and family. It was the perfect beginning to an incredible forever.”

The clip shared a series of highlights from the pair’s Mexico nuptials which took place on Saturday, November 9. Amber and Vinny gave a glimpse at their rustic ceremony plus the show-stopping reception which included pyrotechnics. While exchanging vows, Vinny poked fun at his and Amber’s relationship ups and downs that were documented during their time on the CBS compeтιтion series, which aired earlier this year.

“Love is a choice, especially when I’m on a reality TV show in front of four million people arguing where we park our car,” Vinny teased which earned a laugh from Amber and their guests.

Throughout Amber and Vinny’s time on The Amazing Race, fans were puzzled by the way the couple constantly appeared to be at odds with each other. However, the pair insisted that they didn’t actually fight as much as the show made it seem.

“I learned what a frankenbite is pretty much, where they just cut you up with a bunch of different edits and take it really, really out of context,” Vinny exclusively told Us Weekly in May after he and Amber came in fourth place. “A lot of the conflict that we got to see, for me, was very, very surprising, because the narrative that we had as we went through the race was very, very different.”

After looking back on how he was perceived on the reality series, Vinny admitted that he learned a lot from the experience.

“I don’t really listen that well. There were so many times on the race — and I pride myself for trying my best to listen to her because it’s so important to do that — but there were so many times where she would tell me something, whether it was with tone or without tone, I couldn’t hear it,” he said. “And it was because I was so dialed-in tunnel vision and that race mind really took over.”

Amber also acknowledged to Us that she realized that her tone could be “a little antagonistic.”

Who says true love doesn’t exist on reality TV? While it seems to be a trend that many marriages on reality TV end in divorce, there are still some reality TV couples out there beating the odds. Big Brother‘s Nicole Franzel and Victor Arroyo met while filming season 18 of Big Brother in 2016. The timing […]

“I never knew that I was talking in that way,” she said. “I guess, when we started dating, he’d be like, ‘Why are you talking to me with that tone or that connotation?’ … So, [I’m] just working on how I communicate and the tone of my voice.”

Following their elimination, Vinny got down on one knee and asked Amber to marry him in front of host Phil Keoghan. The couple initially shared news of their engagement back in November 2023 before their season of The Amazing Race aired.

“Love is a choice & the truest measure of that love is based on your actions when the ’feeling’ of love is nowhere to be found. (Rarely will you find two people who understand the gravity of that commitment, & if you do, you have found your person.) And so, I practice,” Vinny wrote via Instagram alongside a pH๏τo of Amber’s hand resting on his behind with her engagement ring on display. “Amber, let this ring be my promise to practice selflessness, patience & love.”
