1. Cara Delahoyde & Nathan Massey

2016 Love Island winners Cara Delahoyde and Nathan Massey tied the knot in June 2019 after meeting on the show three years previously. They said ‘I do’ in front of 120 of their closest friends and family at Preston Court Barn in Canterbury.

The couple went for a purple colour scheme and camped in tipis with their friends after the celebrations. They went to bed at 5am before making sausage and bacon rolls on a barbecue the following morning.

Nathan told OK! Magazine: “It went perfectly. It was one of the best days of my life. I lost my voice! Everyone has said it’s the best wedding they’ve ever been to.”

The pair, who got engaged last year at the Love Island villa they met in, were joined by fellow Islanders Rykard Jenkins and Scott Thomas, as well as TOWIE stars Tommy Mallet and Georgia Kousoulou. Their 17-month-old son Freddie was also with them to share the joy of their big day.

Got him to the chapel! This boy would go anywhere for Freddie ?Bohemian Rhapsody was INCREDIBLE ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Was my pleasure to represent @grassrootsoccer yesterday, who were given the special honour of an early movie showing in aid of their brilliant work for HIV-positive youth around the world – partly funded by the Mercury Phoenix Trust @The_MPT, which honours Freddie Mercury's legacy. 27 years after his death, it’s amazing that science has turned HIV and AIDS from a death sentence, to harmless with the right treatment. Just need attitudes and stigma to go to eradicate it for good, and GRS are doing great things with that aim. Can’t stop singing Queen today, and I now need a house with rooms for all my cats… and loads of cats ?? Such a good film! ??????⚽️? #bohemianrhapsody #queen #freddiemercury #brianmay #grassrootsoccer #GRS #adolescenthealth #charity #soccer #football #hiv #aids #mercuryphoenixtrust #moviepremiere #mpt

5. Idris Elba & Sabrina Dhowre

In April 2019, Idris Elba and Sabrina Dhowre hosted a thrilling three-day extravaganza in Marrakesh and tied the knot in front of 200 of their good friends and family. Since Sabrina’s family are from east Africa and Idris’s are from the west, Marrakesh was chosen as they “thought it’d be fun” to meet somewhere in between.

The beautiful pair revealed their wedding photographs in Vogue. Sabrina was seen wearing a Vera Wang gown (which was just one of three wedding dresses she wore during the day) while Idris donned an Ozwald Boateng suit. Celebrity makeup artist Charlotte Tilbury was put in charge of Sabrina’s wedding day makeup look.

Sabrina said of the wedding: “We want the guests to leave remembering the importance of love. Behind all the glitz and the flowers, that’s what matters.”

It is reported that the dance floor at their wedding was full all night long, with guests downing Champagne and shots of tequila. Celebrity guests Christian Louboutin and Maya Jama reportedly grabbed the bride for a dance-off when Beyonce was played. Sounds like the party of the year!

Growing up I was never the girl who knew exactly what her wedding would look like?? Whether it would be big or small or what my dress would look like. And when I got engaged we didn’t know if we should do east coast or west coast or destination. But one thing I have always known….is that @lisavorce would be my wedding planner. ? I’ve been secretly stalking Lisa’s instagram for years since she so beautifully did @ashleytisdale wedding and the moment zandy and I got engaged she was the first call I made. @lisavorce you are the best of the best. You do what you do so effortlessly and your attention to detail is outstanding. You have an incredible gift and the way you work with everyone makes the process so fun and easy! Zandy and I can’t thank you enough for making our dream wedding come to life! We are forever grateful and miss you already. Here’s just a small glimpse at what was the greatest day of our lives… ?✨ ( ?: all photos done by our amazing wedding photographer @ktmerry we love you!!! ??)

Everything on their big day was perfect – from seafood appetisers to a ceremony officiated by Lea’s best friend and Glee creator Ryan Murphy. Their wedding breakfast had a “Tuscany-Italian vibe”, with family-style pasta, big, long tables and lots of red wine. The pair also created their very own signature cocktail for the day.

The couple told People: “We are so excited to be married and grateful to be surrounded by our friends and family. And most of all, we’re so happy to spend the rest of our lives together.”

On 5th March 2019, ex-TOWIE babe Billie Faiers tied the knot with her long-term beau Greg Shepherd in an idyllic ceremony in the Maldives. The pair said “I do” surrounded by 95 of their closest friends and family on the island of Kuramathi.

Speaking of the wedding, former TOWIE star Billie, 29, told OK! magazine, “Other than the days that Nelly and Arthur were born, it was the best day of my life. It was like a fairy tale – all the stress and tears were worth it.”

As well as a lot of sun, the pair’s big day was full of beautiful surprises. Fellow TOWIE star Ferne McCann performed a special rendition of Stand By Me at the wedding reception, and Greg arrived at the ceremony via speedboat. Billie wore a gorgeous Berta gown, sister Sam gave a tear-jerking speech, and Billie and Greg also performed a Charleston-inspired first dance routine, as taught to them by The Pussycat Dolls’ Kimberly Wyatt.

We’re pretty sure this celebrity wedding will be a tough one to beat.
