Sydney Roosters team captain James Tedesco and his wife Maria Glinellis stole the spotlight at the 2024 Dally M Awards in Sydney on Wednesday night.
The genetically-blessed couple are regulars on the red carpet and often find themselves on the best-dressed list thanks to their sophisticated sense of style.
The lovebirds tied the knot in January 2023.
James and Maria, who is believed to be of Greek heritage, married at the Hunter Valley at Redleaf Wollombi in a stunning garden wedding.
Redleaf Wollombi is a luxury self-contained home only 3km from the historic township of Wollombi and a short drive to Hunter Valley wineries.
Joining in the festivities were Tedesco’s team mates and footy friends, including Mitchell Moses, who was his best man.
The pair welcomed their daughter Rosie in September 2023.
Maria’s family are hospitality entrepreneurs, co-owning Ironwood Coffee on Sydney’s lower north shore.

Just months before their wedding, James splashed $5million on a sprawling home in Sydney’s Hunters Hill where the pair are believed to live.
The NSW Blues and Roosters captain bought the five-bedroom, five-bathroom residence with his Maria in June 2022, reported The Daily Telegraph.
Located in one of the most sought-after North Shore postcodes, the ultra-modern resort-style spread last went under the hammer in 2014 for $3.25million.
The State of Origin star bought the home at auction, after it was listed with a price guide of $4.6million.

Meanwhile, Maria stunned in a sparkling lemon-coloured gown as she joined James at the NRL’s awards night on Thursday.
The slinky number stood out against the darker tones of her husband’s outfit, and she paired the look with white strappy heels and a black purse.

James, who won the Dally M Player of the Year Award in 2019, told The Guardian Australia in 2020 what keeps him grounded.
‘I still stick really close to a lot of my friends outside of footy, that sort of keeps me grounded,’ he said.
