‘The Bachelorette’ Alum Clare Crawley Legally Marries Husband Ryan Dawkins One Year After Wedding
After getting engaged in Las Vegas in 2022, The Bachelorette star Clare Crawley and husband Ryan Dawkins also got legally married in Sin City.
Since the couple’s intimate wedding ceremony in February 2023 in her home city of Sacramento, California, Crawley has had a memorable year, which included becoming a mom to daughter Rowen and closing on her dream house. In the midst of things, the former Bachelorette lead forgot about the actual legal aspect of her union with her husband.
And now, they have officially closed the deal. This time around, their profession of love leaned into camp. This was definitely something they wanted as they fully leaned into the bit. “We did Pink Cadillac, Little White Chapel, and obviously Elvis was our officiant,” Clare wrote on Instagram about the setting of their “legal” wedding.

Previously moving up their first ceremony early last year because of the health of Crawley’s mom, The Bachelor Season 18 runner-up once again gushed about her first wedding. Talking about when the couple first started planning their big day, they had one important thing in mind, for Crawley’s mom to be able to witness the event. “She has late stage dementia, so our time is limited and precious,” Crawley said.
She detailed the journey to her winter wedding by saying, “So without skipping a beat we threw all the plans to the wind and within the week my amazing event planning husband pulled together the most perfect intimate ceremony. It was truly perfect in every way and my beautiful mother was able to see us on our wedding day. I truly couldn’t have asked for anything more special.”
Having a close bond with her mom, Crawley was also happy to share with her followers that her mother is still alive today. Crawley’s mom has seen her daughter become a mother herself. What makes it even more special is that the Bachelor Nation favorite and her husband named their child after her.
Before meeting Ryan, she was in relationship with her season’s winner Dale Moss, but after breaking up for good in September 2022, the now-wed couple met, and the rest is history. Crawley is now officially Mrs. Dawkins!
