At the time, no photographs of the big day were shared on social media or sold to magazines, so details about the wedding were few and far between.
Fast-forward three years and Martha Stewart Weddings magazine shared one image of the dress - a close-up of the skirt - to celebrate the actress's 28th birthday. The American lifestyle guru helped organise the elegant ceremony, which celebrated Ryan's long-time love of Charleston. 'From the heartfelt ceremony to the fun-filled carnival hour and elegant reception, it was a truly enchanting celebration,' the journalist Darcy Miller posted on the official Martha Stewart Weddings blog. 'Congratulations to the newlyweds - thank you for looking to us for help and inspiration, and for including us on your very special day.'
