Olly is yet to post about the wedding yet, but has previously opened up about what was expected for the big day.
He said: "I’m a groomzilla. I never expected it, I thought I’d be the opposite. Amelia will sit me down and go, ‘Look, we’ve decided on this’ and I’m like, ‘No, no, no. Get rid of that, change that, move that’.
"I didn’t know I cared so much about what the flowers look like but, honest to God, if I’m reincarnated, I’m coming back as a florist."
He added: "I didn’t realise how much I would love picking what the plates are going to look like, the glasses.
“There’s a lady helping us plan the wedding and I said to her, ‘I don’t want ugly chairs, you know those horrible school chairs that are horrendous’. She said, ‘Olly, I’ve been doing this for a long time…”
Olly began dating his bodybuilder Amelia in 2019 and popped the question 18 months ago.
