SANTA BARBARA, CALIFORNIA: Pentatonix singer Scott Hoying tied the knot with Mark Manio on Friday, July 7, in a fairytale wedding at the Ritz-Carlton Bacara in Santa Barbara, California.

While Kina Grannis sang ‘Can’t Help Falling in Love’ when the couple walked down the aisle, Hoying surprised Manio by singing his new single ‘Four’. He composed the song after their picturesque engagement in April 2022.

Hoying further said, "Getting married to each other means everything. I think we, like so many queer people growing up, wonder if they’ll ever even come out, and if they'll ever find love, and for some of us, if gay marriage would ever be legal. The fact that all of those obstacles ended up working out in the end is a really beautiful thing and only makes us cherish each other more.” He further continued praising the love of his life, "What I love about Mark is that he is the most loving, gentle, genuinely kind ray of sunshine that you’ll ever meet—always!
