In the spirit of Pride Month, we’re celebrating love in all forms with a look at some of the most beautiful LGBTQIA+ weddings that have blessed our screens recently.
Happy #pridemonth to all! To kick off some real wedding inspiration this month, we’ve rounded up eight incredible LGBTQIA+ real weddings that hit us right in the feels. Each wedding featured is a joyous celebration of love, and we hope you adore these gorgeous couples as much as we do!
Wesley and Michael’s Gorgeous Virgin Island Destination Wedding
Cathi and Jackie’s Glamorous Vineyard Wedding
Melbourne brides Cathi and Jackie celebrated their love in a big way with a lavish vineyard wedding on the picturesque Bellarine Peninsula in Victoria. Reality star turned marriage celebrant, Gina Liano, delivered a tear-jerking ceremony that followed a celebrity videogram from Guy Sebastian – a surprise gift from Cathi to Jackie for their intimate first look.
“Our wedding was the weekend before Melbourne went into 115 days of lockdown. It was the last party that our friends got to attend before going into isolation and we are so happy it was a big one and that everyone had a blast before the big lockdown. It was everything!” – Jackie & Cathi.

Brenton and Clayton’s Secret Garden Soiree
Clayton and Brenton tied the knot in mid-2020 and we are still not over that sheer bridal cape! Their effortlessly elegant garden party took place at the beautiful Burnham Grove Estate in Cawdor, NSW and featured acoustic live music and the cutest-ever Kombi photo booth.
“We always thought we wanted a night wedding but once you have it during the day, you realise that it’s much more fitting. Everyone had gone home by 6pm and we had the rest of the night to open presents and chill out with the family before bed!” – Brenton & Clayton.

Cody & John’s Retro-Inspired Elopement
Champagne Toasts with a Mountain Backdrop
Firlie and Raegan’s Beautiful Barossa Valley Wedding
Spread over four days, Raegan and Firlie’s weekend-long wedding celebrations in the beautiful Barossa Valley were uniquely them. From Raegan’s bespoke bridal jumpsuit to the incredible bagpiper who led the congregation as a nod to Firlie’s Edinburgh heritage, every detail was impeccably planned and so incredibly personal.
“We only did something if it felt meaningful to us as a couple. The cocktails were our favourite drinks, the wines were local wines that we loved. The food was about sharing and talking to the person across the table from you. The band played music that we loved. Nothing was chosen for Instagram, it was all about us a couple.” – Firlie & Raegan.
