The happy marriage took place just days after Crawley revealed that her wedding dress had been stolen from her car.
“At that point 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 glad we’re getting married.'”
Crawley wore a replacement dress from Flares Bridal; a dress she calls her “dream” wedding look.

It’s a fitting happy ending for the newlywed couple, who got engaged in October at a romantic lantern festival in Las Vegas.
“I’m over the moon!” Crawley told PEOPLE at the time. “This was the last thing I expected at this point, especially being a year ago. It’s just been a serious journey and Ryan has been by my side from the very beginning.”
Crawley was previously in a relationship with Dale Moss, to whom she became engaged after just a few weeks The Bachelorette. The engagement came so early in the season that Moss and Crawley left the show during the season’s filming to continue their off-screen relationship.
They broke up twice after the show, leaving it in September 2021.

Crawley added that Dawkins, who she started dating in 2021, “doesn’t care” for fame or attention.
“What he’s really into is my heart, and he’s so consistent and so outspoken about how much he loves me,” she said. “It’s something I’ve never experienced. … It was such a gift to have him in my life.”
