'The Bachelorette' stars Rachel Lindsay and Bryan Abasolo tie the knot in Mexico in front of 'Bachelor' alum guests and family
Congratulations are due for the newly married couple — 'The Bachelorette' stars Rachel Lindsay and Bryan Abasolo have exchanged their vows.
Lindsay and Abasolo met each other during Lindsay's season of 'The Bachelorette', and on Saturday, August 24, the couple tied the knot at the Royalton Suites Cancún in Mexico.
The couple's wedding planner, Michael Russo told People, "Rachel was the epitome of elegance and grace as she walked down the aisle towards Bryan. The ceremony was filled with so much joy, love, and laughter. As they exchanged their personal handwritten vows, you could feel the unbridled emotion and powerful connection between them."
'Bachelor' alums Kristina Schulman, Astrid Loch, and Bibiana Julian were among the guests who attended the ceremony. Around two years ago, we saw the attorney and Miami-based chiropractor get engaged on national television.
Post the engagement, Lindsay told People: "It was like an out-of-body experience to hear the words that he was saying to me. I blanked out on what I was saying — I meant it and it was from the heart, but it was just so surreal that it was happening. I mean we're in Spain, we're on top of this castle. I'm standing in front of the man of my dreams, and now he’s about to get down on one knee. And so the moment he did it, it was like, 'Oh my gosh, this is happening!' I couldn’t do anything but scream. Like that's all I could do, I was so happy."
After the couple got engaged, they lived together in Lindsay's hometown of Dallas, before they relocated to Miami earlier this year. Earlier this month, Lindsay told People about the couples decision to not televise their wedding. "Initially, I wanted a TV wedding. I 100 percent did," Lindsay admitted.
"Then, as we got to know each other in the real world and things became normalized, I started hearing horror stories about these TV weddings. I am very thankful that we don't have one and that we’re doing it on our own. I also think that it shows to the world or Bachelor Nation that what we have is more real."
She added, "We don't need TV. We don't need to get paid. We're doing this because this is what we want to do. And I think it has more meaning."
On the other hand, the couple is clear on having a family, but they are just not seeing eye to eye on how many children they want. "I like three. She wants four," Abasolo revealed, while Lindsay said, "I think we’d have pretty babies!"
