Zach Bryan Marries Samantha Leonard in Secretive New Year’s Eve Ceremony in San Sebastián

Local reporting underscores a tightly managed celebration, cementing Bryan’s link to the city.

Overview

  • The couple wed at the Basilica of Santa María in the Parte Vieja, where thousands of flowers installed by florists from Antibes and a substantial security presence drew local attention.
  • Roughly 200 guests arrived on a large private flight from New York to Bilbao’s Loiu airport for the event.
  • Bryan performed Bruce Springsteen’s “Tougher than the Rest” live as a dedication to his wife during the celebration.
  • After the ceremony, Bryan carried Leonard out of the church and the pair departed in a green MG MGB Roadster convertible.
  • On New Year’s morning, Bryan took a swim at La Concha with his father before heading back toward Hotel María Cristina, and his only Spain concert remains scheduled for May 27 at Illunbe.
