Sorry, Ladies: Eli's Officially Off the Market

Posted Apr 20, 08 3:38 PM CDT in Gossip,  Sports 

(Newser) – Sorry gals, Giants quarterback Eli Manning is no longer a free man. He and college sweetheart Abby McGrew wed in a sunset ceremony last night in Mexico, the New York Post reports. A few dozen family and friends gathered at a seaside resort, where the well-tanned couple said their vows under a tent adorned with pink wildflowers.

Manning's brothers Peyton and Cooper served as best men, and McGrew's sisters were maids of honor. McGrew's wedding planner called her "a delight to work with," and said the ceremony had to be intimate. "Everything in their lives is so big, I think they wanted this wedding to be really small and elegant."
