Zach Bryan says wife incorporated his late mother’s lace into her wedding dress

People reports that Zach Bryan revealed his wife Samantha Leonard incorporated lace from his late mother’s wedding dress into her gown after the couple, who confirmed they tied the knot on Dec. 31, 2025, held a ceremony that appeared to be at Basílica de Santa María del Coro in San Sebastián, Spain.

In an Instagram Story on Jan. 5, Bryan wrote, "Samantha went out of her way to put my mom's wedding dress lace on her dress and I cried for a good bit," adding, "Meant so much sweetheart, thank you." He also posted a photo of his mother Annette on her wedding day and wrote, "Wish you were here about now gorgeous." Annette died in 2016. Leonard posted a series of photos on Jan. 2 showing the pair exchanging vows inside the ornate venue; one image shows Bryan wiping tears as Leonard wore a lace gown with sheer sleeves and a long veil, and another shows her holding a bouquet of white blooms.

Bryan confirmed the wedding after a Dec. 31 video circulated of the couple getting into a car with a "Just Married" sign, and he later shared a post showing Leonard in a strapless white gown with a feather-trimmed hem along with a clip of himself singing a cover of Bruce Springsteen's "Tougher Than the Rest" at the celebration. Beyond the social posts and images, additional details about the ceremony or their plans were not provided.
