He has a way with words, that’s for sure. Zach Bryan and his wife, Samantha, tied the know in a surprised wedding on New Year’s Eve, after they first went public around August of 2025, and Zach actually fueled those marriage rumors himself when he posted a video of he, Leonard and some friends paragliding in Europe.
Fans quickly spotted a gold band on the singer’s ring finger, and interestingly enough, Bryan deleted the video shortly after it was posted. He then replaced the video with another, only this time, a bald eagle emoji was covering up his left hand.
Zach and Samantha were married in San Sebastian, Spain, and not long after the wedding, Zach shared the first official photo of him and Samantha as husband and wife, with a beautiful black and white photo of them along with the caption:
“Tougher than the rest.”
Samantha looked gorgeous, and from the few photos and videos I’ve seen, it looked like a dreamy event in Spain… what a way to end the year:
Samantha also took to Instagram to share several photos from their absolutely gorgeous ceremony, which looks to be at a breathtaking Spanish cathedral.
She shared several of them at the alter saying their vows, as well as a few other snapshots, and the flowers and the setting at this church is gorgeous. I can’t imagine a prettier setting for a wedding. Samantha, who made a beautiful bride, shared the photos along with the simple caption:
“Forever.”
From a quick Google search, it looks like the ceremony took place at The Basilica of Saint Mary of Coro, which is a baroque Roman Catholic parish church and minor basilica completed in 1774.

I’m sure they’re still very much in the honeymoon phase, and he took to Instagram stories today to post a lengthy not to his new bride, saying that Samantha has “taught [him] what being loved actually means”:
“Happy Valentine’s to my favorite person on the planet. You are so gorgeous and kind and selfless and you’ve taught me what being loved actually means. You’re based as hell and never let stupid people get to you. The toughest and smartest woman I know.
Thank God I get forever with you. Every mistake I ever made was a blessing since it all led to us and our home and our pets and nights in the city and your paintings and your laugh and your voice and your trust and your smile and everything else that makes you my lover. Hope your day is as perfect as you.”
He shared it along with a photo of Samantha grilling in what appears to be New York City:
