Jesse Tyler Ferguson Jokes About Being Stressed Of Officiating Sarah Hyland’s Wedding
During an appearance on “The Jennifer Hudson Show,” the Broadway star discussed her role during her costar’s wedding. He first indicated to his host that he was filling in for Ty Burrell, who was originally supposed to be the officiant. “He had a family emergency, so I was his disciple,” Ferguson explained to Hudson.

However, the wedding was so close, leaving the actress little time to prepare for her duties. “It went down, like, ten days before the wedding. I don’t have any notice,” lamented Ferguson. “And you can’t say ‘no.’ He already knew I was going to a wedding, so it would be like, ‘Oh, I’m busy that weekend. I couldn’t get out of it.”
Because of his love for the “Love Island USA” host, he took the role. “I adore Sarah, so I was like, It means she’s asking me to do this, but it’s a lot of pressure.”
The “Dinner’s on Me” podcast host later admitted to being nervous about the role because it was unlike any other. He said, “It’s not just like a normal wedding. It was a wedding that, like, had paparazzi, helicopters flying over us. It will be in Vogue magazine. I was like, Oh my gosh, can I start with a low profile one? No! Right up!”
Thankfully, the actor is now a pro at that. He joked, “I’m perfect now, so if anyone needs anything.” A week after the wedding, the actor shared the details of how he managed to officiate the wedding. The Primetime Emmy award nominee is serious about making sure she executes her role.
He explained that he didn’t know what to do at first and had an idea after talking to Burrell. The “Take Me Out” actress continued, emphasizing that she was happy to officiate the wedding. “I’m happy to do it,” he said. “Very happy to understudy Ty Burrell.”
According to the father of two, he can do his part because he knows what the couple wants. “I know Sarah and Wells wanted it to be a fun, lighthearted ceremony,” Ferguson said. “They’re not serious, but you also don’t want to rely too much on humor because it’s a big day.”

Lovebirds Hyland and Adams are very grateful that Ferguson went above and beyond to marry them. The couple expressed their gratitude to Ferguson as they wished him well as he turned 47 years ago.
In honor of the birthday, the two uploaded a clip from their wedding, showing the process when the ABC star married them. The “Vampire Academy” actress looked stunning in a custom-made Vera Wang Haute ivory silk wedding gown with French tulle bodice and sleeves accented with a high slit.
A flowing white veil added to the beautiful gown. Meanwhile, his handsome husband looked even more charming in a black tuxedo and tie. Ferguson wore a navy blue suit and a white shirt.
He stood at the altar as he began the ceremony, cracking jokes before getting into the ins and outs of marriage and how couples are meant to love and support each other to achieve success.
The officiant explained to the couple how they would live together. “Like the earth, should your love be a firm foundation that grows stronger through the seasons? Like a star, should your love be a constant source of light? Like a flame, should your union be kindled with passion and love in your heart?”
As part of his duties, the officiant helped the two exchange vows and even added a hand-fasting ceremony to honor Hyland’s Irish and Scottish heritage before pronouncing them husband and wife.
