* “Georgia Bulldogs quarterback Stetson Bennett Marries His Lifelong Love: From Between the Hedges to ‘I Do'” In a moving ceremony, Cameron Liss honors
In a moving ceremony that united not only two hearts but an entire Bulldog Nation in celebration, former Georgia Bulldogs quarterback Stetson Bennett married his lifelong love, Cameron Liss. The ceremony, elegant and deeply personal, marked a full-circle moment for the young man who had gone from a small-town walk-on to a national championship-winning quarterback. With a backdrop of love, perseverance, and unwavering commitment, the wedding of Stetson and Cameron was more than a union of two individuals—it was a poignant reminder of the power of faith, family, and dreaming big.
For fans who followed Bennett’s improbable rise from scout team obscurity to collegiate stardom, this chapter in his life carries all the hallmarks of his football journey: quiet resilience, steadfast loyalty, and a refusal to quit. Stetson Bennett IV wasn’t supposed to be the hero of Georgia’s football resurgence. He wasn’t even supposed to play. But through determination, belief, and hard work, he wrote his own story—one that ended not only with back-to-back national championships but now, with the love of his life by his side, a new beginning.
Their love story, much like Stetson’s path to the starting quarterback job, is one rooted in consistency and quiet strength. Cameron Liss, Bennett’s longtime girlfriend and now wife, stood by him through the highs and lows of his college career. A fellow Georgia native, Cameron has always shared a quiet grace, never seeking the limelight but offering unwavering support. Friends and family describe her as warm, intelligent, and kind—a perfect match for someone like Stetson, whose humility and focus often overshadow his sense of humor and deep loyalty to those close to him.
The couple’s ceremony took place in an intimate, elegant setting that was both timeless and reflective of their Southern roots. The venue, adorned in soft whites and lush greenery, was full of nods to Georgia heritage. Delicate florals, candlelit tables, and heartfelt speeches gave the night a glow that reflected the couple’s sincere love for each other. Guests included close family, lifelong friends, and a few familiar faces from Stetson’s football days—including former teammates and coaching staff who have watched his personal and athletic journey unfold over the years.
One of the most touching moments of the evening came during the exchange of vows. With a tremble in his voice, Stetson spoke not only of love but of gratitude. He thanked Cameron for believing in him when few did, for standing by him when the critics were loudest, and for being his anchor during the chaos of fame. “You saw me before anyone else did,” he said. “When I was just a kid with a dream, you loved me as if I’d already made it. And now that we’re here, I promise to love you with that same belief, every day of our lives.”
Cameron’s vows, equally emotional, painted a portrait of devotion and respect. She spoke of the years spent quietly cheering him on, of the prayers whispered before big games, and the way his determination inspired her daily. She praised his unshakable character, his kindness, and his deep commitment to the people he loves. “You are more than a champion on the field,” she said through tears. “You’re a champion in life. And today, I’m the proudest woman alive to stand by you.”
As the sun set and the reception came alive with music and laughter, there was a palpable sense of joy in the air—not only for what had just happened, but for everything the future holds for the couple. The dance floor lit up with friends celebrating a love that had weathered so much, and yet never lost its warmth. Stetson and Cameron shared their first dance as husband and wife to a soulful Southern ballad, their eyes locked, completely absorbed in each other despite the hundreds of smiling faces around them.
It was a moment that felt earned. Not just because of the fairytale backdrop or the years of history between them, but because of who they had proven themselves to be—individually and as a couple. Cameron, a thoughtful and accomplished woman in her own right, has always kept her life balanced between academics, service, and support of her partner. A University of Georgia alumna with a passion for healthcare, she’s known for her quiet intellect and strong moral compass. Her strength, often behind the scenes, has been a crucial pillar of Stetson’s support system. Together, they’ve forged a relationship that stands on mutual respect, admiration, and enduring friendship.
For Bennett, who has faced scrutiny, setbacks, and doubt at nearly every step of his athletic career, this next chapter feels like a natural evolution—not an ending, but the beginning of a new team, a new purpose. Marriage for him is not a retreat from his goals, but a deepening of them. Those who know him say he approaches love the same way he approached football: with heart, focus, and grit. As one of his former teammates put it, “He was never playing for himself. He played for all of us—his family, his teammates, and yes, for her. Cameron was always part of that story.”
In fact, it’s not uncommon to hear the phrase “From walk-on to legend” when talking about Bennett. But in the context of his wedding, it becomes clear that legend status isn’t just reserved for what happens under stadium lights. Sometimes, it’s in the quiet loyalty to the people who matter. Sometimes, it’s in the quiet choice to keep loving, keep believing, keep walking forward together even when the road is uncertain.
That’s what Stetson and Cameron represent. A different kind of fairytale—one not built on glamour or grand gestures, but on small, steady moments that define a relationship. The countless FaceTimes across state lines during seasons away. The long walks after tough games. The whispered encouragement before kickoff. The shared prayers for courage and peace. Those were the bricks that built the foundation of a love strong enough to last a lifetime.
As the night wound down and the couple made their exit—beneath a cascade of sparklers held by cheering loved ones—there was a sense that this story was just beginning. They stepped into a classic getaway car, Stetson’s hand gently resting on Cameron’s, both beaming with joy. The same way he’d led the Bulldogs onto the field, he now led his bride into a new life, one filled with promise, purpose, and love.
Of course, for Georgia fans, it’s impossible to separate Stetson’s personal story from his football legacy. He gave them some of the greatest moments in the program’s history—come-from-behind victories, championship runs, and unforgettable performances on college football’s biggest stage. But perhaps even more enduring than the touchdown passes and trophy lifts will be the example he’s set off the field. That of a man grounded in his values. A man who loves with humility. A man who, against all odds, wins—not only games, but hearts.
His marriage to Cameron Liss is not just a personal milestone—it’s a symbol of what can happen when two people believe in each other through every challenge. Their wedding was a celebration not just of their love, but of the journey it took to get there. And in that way, it felt like a continuation of the same narrative that’s defined Stetson Bennett’s life so far: hard-earned joy, quiet strength, and the beauty of writing your own story, no matter where you start.
So from the storied fields of Athens to the intimate aisle where he pledged his forever, Stetson Bennett continues to show what real victory looks like. Not in statistics or accolades, but in faith, in commitment, and in love that lasts long after the final whistle. And as the sun rose the next morning on their first day as husband and wife, the message was clear: this game, the one that really matters, is just getting started.
