10 Things You Need To Know About HGTV's Steve Ford

When you get married in front of a waterfall, gifting your grandmother's wedding ring, how could you not be called a hopeless romantic? While we don't know the answer for sure, clues seem to point in that direction for Steve Ford. According to an exclusive interview with People, that's exactly how things went down between Ford and wife, Andrea Cargill, in 2021. And all this after he proposed in a garden, of all places.

The two were joined on Ford's birthday, in an outdoor ceremony at Seven Springs Mountain Resort in Pennsylvania, a location that features prominently in Ford's life. The wedding list was small and cozy, and the reception took place in a historic cabin nearby. It was all very low-key and intimate, except, of course, for the shiny disco ball that hung over the dance floor.

"Andrea is happy and it's great to be around such a happy person," Ford told People at the time. "She's also thoughtful and the most beautiful person I know, inside and out. She brings love and joy to my life, and she's always up for a new adventure."
