Disaster bride. When you come back from vacation with your fiancé Ryan Dawkins, Clare Crawley Realized her wedding dress was stolen – but she says it was fate.
“I know that I always share this, but I have a deep belief that everything should happen how it should happen, whether it looks good or bad or what I want or what I want. I believe in the depths of my soul that everything is for a reason. And we may not know what that reason looks like now but it works out. So let me tell you what happened,” the former bachelor, 41 years old, told the audience of her Instagram Story on Saturday, January 28.
She continued: “When Ryan and I came back from Hawaii earlier this week, my car broke down while we were leaving. And guess what’s in the car? Remember that my wedding is soon. My wedding dress is in my car! It’s in there because I’m supposed to put it on the last fix and I want to remind myself not to forget it.”
Unfortunately, the thief stole the bride’s dress before she returned. The theft has frustrated and frustrated the past Bachelor’s degree contestant, especially since her big day is around the corner.
“At this point, it’s like ‘Ughhhhh, what do I do?’ And I thought, ‘Okay. It’s about the moment and what we’re celebrating. I can wear anything, and I’ll be happy we’re there.’ So, I went to get the curtains … and I talked to the owner and she was the sweetest thing in the world. I just told her, ‘Forgive me now. This is what happened.'”
The owner of the bridal shop became Crawley’s godmother and found the perfect replacement. “Basically, within three days, I changed into a new dress, pressed it, completely changed it in the best way, like it was very appropriate. Turns out, that was the wedding dress that was on my Pinterest board three years ago. It was the dress of my dreams,” Crawley gushed.
“I have to say it’s because of the owner, Rae. She actually picked out a dress and was like, ‘Wear this dress.’ And I was like, ‘OK, what am I going to wear!’ And it became a place where — it would make me cry,” the Californian said as her eyes began to well up. There is water. “It’s the most beautiful set and it’s better than I could have imagined. therefore, [I’m] Still crying tears of joy but how things work out – and sometimes for the better. Even when it seems that something is bad, I think it turns out better. It looks like it should be.”
By changing her clothes, she has “something new.” She also performed her “Something Borrowed” and “Something Blue” on Saturday. She would wear a pair of borrowed diamond earrings, and her handkerchief was embroidered with the words “Happy Tears San” is a blue line.
“How cute is that handkerchief? I won’t lie. When I opened it up, I was blind,” the barber said via Instagram Story on Saturday. “I feel like I’m in a good mood right now because we’re getting married soon and it’s everything I’ve ever dreamed of and it’s even better. And better. So I’m very excited.”
Crawley and Dawkins began dating quietly in 2021 but took their relationship public in September 2022, a month before the CEO of Mascot Sports proposed.
