Speaking to the Star Observer Will shared his joy at being able officiate their union.
“It isn’t lost on us that a day like Saturday wasn’t legally possible when we first met” he said.
“We’re so grateful for the chance to mark the occasion with friends and family.”
However one very special family member made sure they outshone the grooms on their special day.
“Obviously Yiayia Susie stole the show with her bomboniere, and we wouldn’t have it any other way.”
