Clare Crawley married Mascot Sports CEO Ryan Dawkins on February 1 in an intimate ceremony in Sacramento, California.
“If I had to do this day over every single day for the rest of my life… I wouldn’t change a thing! says Crawley, 41, who starred as The Bachelorette lead in 2020. “Happiest day of my life hands down!”
Crawley’s happy marriage took place just days after she revealed that her wedding gown had been stolen from her car.
“In the moment, I was like ‘Ughhhhh, what do I do?'” she wrote on Instagram. “And I thought, ‘It’s okay. It’s about the moment and what we’re celebrating. I can wear anything, and I’ll be happy that we’re getting married.'”
Crawley wore a replacement dress from Flares Bridal, which she describes as her “dream” wedding gown.
It’s an appropriate happy ending for the newlyweds, who got engaged in October at a romantic lantern festival in Las Vegas.
“I am over the moon!” Crawley told PEOPLE at the time. “This was the last thing I expected right now, especially coming from where I was a year ago. It’s just been a serious journey, and Ryan has been by my side since the very beginning.”
Crawley added that Dawkins, whom she began dating in 2021, “doesn’t care” about fame or attention.
“Really what he’s in it for is my heart, and he is so consistent and so vocal about how much he loves me,” she said. “It is something I have never experienced. … It’s been such a gift having him in my life.”
The newlyweds went Instagram-official last September when she shared a video of them laughing and kissing in a car with a pink heart. Accompanying the post with a simple caption, she wrote: “Him.”
She also shared the clip on her Instagram Story with an additional caption describing Dawkins as “my perfect match.”
Crawley additionally pinned one comment that implied she’s been in a relationship for a year. “Finally. A year later and y’all are still so f—ing cute.”
