The Bachelorette's Courtney Dober and Abbey Thomason announce shock wedding - and you'll never guess where they tied the knot
The reality star, who was a frontrunner on Georgia Love's season of the dating show in 2016, took to Instagram on Tuesday to reveal that he and his longtime partner had tied the knot after getting engaged in February of last year.
'For friends and family who missed it, yep, a few days ago we got married in Mongolia. Pics and vids coming soon!' he wrote across a picture of the happy couple on their wedding day.
The new Mr and Mrs Dober, who have been together since 2021, wore big smiles as they posed for the snap, with a jaw-dropping backdrop of rolling hills and green trees behind them.
Abbey, who is a realtor and renovator from the US, wore a stunning lace and tulle dress, which boasted a voluminous skirt, a feminine neckline and floral motifs.

She accessorised the wedding attire with a woven cowboy hat.
Her husband opted for an olive green suit paired with a baby blue button-up shirt.
Courtney wore a light brown tie for the occasion, along with brown lace-up shoes, black socks and a fedora hat.
The couple beamed as they sat on the hill while sipping on some canned beverages.
Courtney is no stranger to the screen, having appeared on The Bachelorette in 2016 and The Bachelor Winter Games in 2018, as well as currently hosting and building on The Fixers.
Prior to that, he also presented for Channel 10 and hosted Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in 2013.
In 2020, Courtney made headlines after completing an astounding landscaping job for a very famous face.
He shared a before-and-after video showcasing his skills after transforming the backyard of 5 Seconds of Summer guitarist Michael Clifford's home in Los Angeles.
'What do you get someone who has everything... a new garden? Twenty-four-hour birthday surprise build for our buddy,' Courtney captioned the footage, which he posted on Instagram at the time.
'My buddy's away, but this is his house, just a dirty patch,' Courtney said as he panned the camera to show the unkempt backyard.
'He gets home tomorrow, so we're going to turn this patch into a little slice of paradise, in just 24 hours.'
The landscape enthusiast went on to clear, grade and lay the weed matting down in a bid to liven up the turf.
He also added a few plants and stepping stones, and installed a wooden bench seat for entertaining purposes.
The birthday boy was thrilled with the renovation.
'Oh my god, it looks sick!' Michael said as he took in the surroundings of his new backyard.

Conjoined twin Carmen Andrade MARRIES longtime fiancé… and had a very special requirement for her dress
Conjoined twin Carmen Andrade has quietly married her boyfriend of four years after meeting on dating app Hinge. Carmen - who is a conjoined twin with sister Lupita Andrade - recently told Today that she married Daniel McCormack back in October in front of their families. The couple, who met on Hinge in 2020, 'eloped' and got married on Lover's Leap Bridge in New Milford, Connecticut. The duo, along with Lupita, had previously announced the news quietly at the end of a YouTube video titled Overdue Update! 'We should probably also address something else pretty big,' Carmen said in the clip, 'I did get married.' The bride, 25, then flashed her wedding ring and laughed when Daniel came into view, proclaiming: 'I got an upgrade. I'm the husband now.' Daniel, 28, explained that the wedding was a 'small get-together' with 'local family' only - rather than extending the invite wider. 'I don't like those weddings where they invite like the third cousin twice removed,' he shared. The couple, who met on Hinge in 2020, 'eloped' and got married on Lover's Leap Bridge in New Milford, Connecticut 'I'm sorry, but great uncle Patrick, whom I haven't seen since I was three, you're not worth a f***ing seat at my table, I'm sorry.' Carmen added: ''It was very pretty. It was in autumn, which made it even prettier.' The content creator then shed some insight about her wedding dress - which she wore alongside her sister. 'I did not wear white. Don't regret it. I don't like white. Not my thing,' she explained. The twin instead decided to wear a long, sparkling emerald gown on her special day. Pictures flashed on the screen as they chatted about the wedding, showing the couple side by side at their outdoor venue. Daniel was dressed in a classic tuxedo and a dark green bowtie to match his bride's shimmering gown. Carmen also made sure to clarify who actually got married in October. 'Before anybody gets it twisted: We got married,' Carmen said, pointing to herself and Daniel. 'But we did not get married,' she added, then including her conjoined sister. The newlyweds are currently trying to win America's Favorite Couple contest, for which they are in ninth place. Lupita identifies as asexual and said: 'I don't want to get married... because I don't want to.' Before meeting Daniel, Carmen said dating was a 'learning process for everybody.' The sisters previously claimed that they have often been inappropriately 'fetishized' over the idea that someone is 'having sex with two people at once.' The Mexico-born twins, who have lived in Connecticut since they were two years old, are attached along their chest walls down to their pelvis, where their spines meet. They have two arms, but only a single leg each, with Carmen controlling the right leg and Lupita, the left. The sisters were only expected to survive for three days after they were born in 2001. They have been told that their separation could result in their death or years of intensive care, so they chose to stay together and have expertly adapted to living life with one another. Both women don't see themselves as disabled either - after admitting that it is only 'a disability if you make it a disability.' When Lupita and Carmen were young, they spent years in physical therapy learning how to sit up and work together to use their legs, and when they were four years old, they took their first steps together.
