He’s officially off the market! In a move that shocked fans but delighted friends and co-stars, Chicago Fire actor Jake Lockett revealed he secretly tied the knot with actress Dominique Domingo, best known for her role in The Accountant 2. The couple eloped in Hawaii in a serene, private ceremony that perfectly captured their low-key love story — and their Firehouse 51 family had plenty to say.
A Secret Wedding in Paradise
On July 3, Lockett — who portrayed fan-favorite firefighter Sam Carver — announced on Instagram that he and Domingo had eloped in Kauai, Hawaii, on June 18. The ceremony took place in a lush, hidden cove near Kalihiwai Falls — far from the cameras, media attention, and the Chicago skyline where fans usually saw him in uniform.
“The theme was about letting nature take the lead,” Domingo shared with People. “There was no need for added décor because Mother Nature handled it all.” Surrounded by dense tropical foliage, cascading waterfalls, and fragrant blooms, the ceremony captured the couple’s desire for a peaceful, intimate moment that felt entirely their own.
No Guests, No Fuss — Just Love
Instead of a star-studded guest list, the couple chose simplicity. Only their parents, a photographer, and a videographer were present. “We both felt like anything bigger than our immediate family wouldn’t allow us to focus on each other as much on our day,” Lockett explained.
Dressed in understated elegance, Lockett and Domingo stood hand-in-hand as they exchanged vows. Their decision to keep the event minimal wasn’t about secrecy — it was about connection. “We wanted to keep it simple and not overcomplicate a once-in-a-lifetime moment,” said the newlyweds.
The Island’s Magic
Domingo was clearly enchanted by the tropical setting. “There is something special and healing about the energy of the island,” she said. “The smell of the air, being immersed in the lush greenery everywhere you go, and of course, the water.”
The couple’s wedding photos, posted by Lockett on Instagram, showcase a barefoot bride in flowing white and a beaming groom, both surrounded by a natural canopy of green. It’s the kind of ceremony that belongs in a romance film — quiet, intimate, and deeply personal.
Co-Stars React
While fans were stunned by the surprise reveal, the One Chicago family rallied quickly to celebrate.
Daniel Kyri, who played Darren Ritter and also exited Chicago Fire at the end of Season 13, led the way, commenting, “Woooooooooooo!!!! Congrats! 😍”
Ser’Darius Blain, of Chicago P.D. fame, chimed in with, “Congratulations brotha,” while Jimmy Nicholas (Paramedic Chief Evan Hawkins) added, “Congrats man!!”
Caitlin Carver, who portrayed Emma Jacobs, echoed the joy: “Omggg congrats!!!!! Amazing ❤️❤️.”
It’s clear the Chicago Fire cast remains a close-knit group, even after the cameras stop rolling.
What’s Next for Lockett?
After his exit in the Chicago Fire Season 13 finale, fans have been eager to know what’s next for Jake Lockett. While the actor has kept details under wraps, it seems his immediate plans include enjoying married life and perhaps a well-deserved honeymoon.
As for Domingo, her career has been on the rise with her Accountant 2 role, and with this new chapter underway, the couple seems poised for both personal and professional growth.
Final Sparks
It’s rare for a celebrity couple to pull off a private wedding in the age of social media, but Lockett and Domingo succeeded in crafting a moment that was as meaningful as it was magical.
In an industry often defined by spectacle, their quiet Hawaiian ceremony stands out as a celebration of authenticity, love, and the power of nature to create the most beautiful backdrop of all.
Congratulations to the happy couple — may your love story continue to burn bright, no matter where life takes you next. 🔥🌺💍
