On August 11, 2024, Jessica Szohr and Brad Richardson got married at Pine Canyon in Flagstaff, Arizona surrounded by nature and their closest loved ones such as Gossip Girl co-star Chace Crawford and her Maid of Honor Nina Dobrev by her side.

Jessica Szoher’s Galia Lahav Wedding Gown

Jessica chose Galia Lahav to bring her bridal vision to life for her wedding day. She wore the Tokyo gown, which was a fashion-forward, bold look perfectly reflecting her personality. She also had a gorgeous custom veil, designed by Galia Lahav’s head designer, Sharon Sever. The veil added an incredibly personal touch with a quote from her late grandfather, beautifully embellished in crystals. 

“My grandpa was such a huge part of my childhood, and he always said that to us,” Jessica shared. “My life was so fast with Gossip Girl, but he would always say, ‘Just make sure you’re taking time to smell the roses.’ That stuck with me.”

“My style is a little more boho than the dress I ended up choosing, but when I put it on, I felt like a goddess,” Jessica shared about her Tokyo gown. “It felt right.”
