The wedding was an intimate affair with only selected friends and family members in attendance.
The Chicago Fire star confirmed the news to The Daily Telegraph in October 2020 and described their special day as their “silver lining to 2020.”
He further revealed that the intimate ceremony took place in his wife's hometown of Neptune Beach, Florida, on the same day as her grandparents’ wedding anniversary.
“Despite a spike in COVID, a venue change, a Saharan dust plume, not to mention a torrential thunderstorm, we made it across the line on our wedding day, and I’m a very lucky man,” Spencer told the tabloid.

Spencer and his wife began dating in 2014 after meeting at the Chicago music festival.

“We’re very happy. She is my port in every storm, and we’re already excited to be moving on to the next phase of our lives,” he stated.
He later praised his bride by describing her as smart, pretty, and “way ahead of her years.”
In November 2021, Spencer and Carr were also reported to be expecting their first child together. A Twitter handle under the name @onechicagonews broke the news.
