Guy Fieri Talks Son Hunter’s Wedding Plans: ‘It’s Going to Be Star-Studded’ (Exclusive)

The Fieri wedding is in the works!

While promoting the new season of his Food Network show Tournament of Champions, Guy Fieri updated PEOPLE on his son Hunter Fieri’s wedding plans. Hunter, 27, proposed to his girlfriend Tara Bernstein at the family’s ranch in Northern California on Thanksgiving — and now the young couple are planning to say “I do” in the same place.

“We were at the ranch for Christmas and there was a big discussion and conversation about how it was going to go, where we were going to do it,” says Guy, 56. “We have this big lake and in the middle of the lake is an island with a big willow tree on it. The idea is for Tara to walk across the bridge and do the whole thing.”

Since Hunter popped the question, all of Guy’s chef friends have come to congratulate them – and offer their skills. “Everybody wants to cook for it,” says Guy, who just launched Flavortown Sauce, a line of nine condiments available in stores in March. – It will be stellar.

Hunter and Bernstein are targeting a date of May 2025. Hunter has asked his father to be the witness, but Guy might just want to be a regular father of the groom that day, he says. (Guy has officiated many weddings, including 101 gay weddings in Miami in 2015 after Florida overturned its ban on same-sex marriage.) Hunter’s brother Ryder, 18, will be best man.

Hunter and Bernstein, who met in February 2023 at the Super Bowl, are set to host their first big event as an engaged couple at the South Beach Wine & Food Festival on February 24. Guy will also be there to host events including Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives LIVE.

“They’re both so gentle and relaxed,” says Guy. “Hunter doesn’t change who she is or where she comes from. She’s the same. She’s a professional pickleball player. And they just float through life. They’re just a lot of fun.”

Tournament of Champions airs Sunday at 8pm ET/PT on Food Network and Discovery+.
