Locky Gilbert and Irena Srbinovska are MARRIED! The Bachelor couple hold surprise Melbourne wedding as they exchange vows in intimate ceremony
The Bachelor's Locky Gilbert and Irena Srbinovska are officially married.
The Bachelor couple wed in Melbourne on Friday where they had an intimate ceremony surrounded by friends and family.
The couple shared the good news in a joint Instagram post showing the sweet moment Locky kissed his bride at the altar.
'The happiest day of our lives' the pair captioned the image, adding the hashtags: #mr&mrsgilbert #irenaslockyinlove.
In the photos, Irena, 32, looked stunning in an off-the-shoulder gown with a long trail and flowing veil.
Locky, 32, went for a classic black tuxedo paired with a white dress shirt and patent leather dress shoes.
The pair were inundated with congratulations from their famous friends with fellow Bachelor star Laura Bryne writing, 'Congrats you two'.
Former Bachelor Jimmy Nicholson wrote: 'Congratulations love birds!' while Bec Judd added, 'Congratulations'.
Married At First Sight groom Telv Williams chimed in: 'Congratulations mate' while Bachelor star Mary Viturino added, 'Congratulations'.
The Block stars Elise and Matt wrote: 'Wooohoooooo yes you are!!!!Congratulations beautiful friends. So so so happy for you both, yet so sad we couldn’t be there to celebrate with you… love you both'.
The happy couple, who met on the Channel 10 dating series, announced their engagement in June.
'Mrs Gilbert has a nice ring to it,' Irena captioned the post.
They got engaged in front of Mackenzie Falls at Grampians National Park, and shared a kiss in front of the falls after Locky popped the question.
The pair were both rugged up in activewear and puffer jackets, indicating that they'd been out hiking in the area.
Irena also showed off her stunning diamond engagement ring, which was from Larsen Jewellery.
A number of reality stars posted well-wishes in the comments, including Love Island's Dom Thomas, The Bachelor's Anna Heinrich, Former Bachelorette Georgia Love and her husband Lee Elliott, and Survivor star David Genat.
It comes after the couple purchased their first home together in Perth.
The couple posted to Instagram to share the exciting news - telling fans they will soon commence renovations.
'We bought a house!! Let the celebrations sorry renovations begin,' wrote Locky and Irena.
'It's taken us a while to find our perfect (renovators dream) home in our favourite location but we got there and we are so excited to make this our home.'
The couple went on to say they are happy to finally set down some roots after their lengthy travels since falling in love on the show.
'We are super eager to see what the future has in store for us and it's good to finally set some roots after all our travels,' they wrote.
'Now let the renovations begin but first a quick celebratory drink or two.'
The news came just one month after the pair dampened talk of a split after they bizarrely unfollowed each other on Instagram.
Split rumours first emerged in January, after Irena announced that she had left Locky behind in Perth and returned to her home city of Melbourne.
Friends close to the couple previously told Daily Mail Australia that they wouldn't be surprised if they had split when she relocated back to Melbourne and decided to keep it low-key.
They also claimed that Irena had been 'a lot more stressed out than normal in the past few weeks'.
Speaking to Daily Mail Australia in April, Locky refuted claims of a breakup.
'We haven't unfollowed each other at all,' he said, seemingly unaware that Irena had temporarily blocked him on Instagram.
Irena had relocated from Perth to Melbourne in January, after telling fans she'd been 'struggling being away' from her family in Victoria.
The couple met on season eight of The Bachelor back in 2020, with Locky choosing Irena over aspiring Instagram model Bella Varelis.
In an episode of SAS Australia, which was filmed in 2021, Locky fought back tears as he couldn't imagine life without Irena.
Locky and his fellow recruits were tasked with writing a 'death letter' - a letter to their loved ones in the event of their death - as part of a brutal psychological challenge.
While the challenge was done on SAS Australia for dramatic purposes, similar letters are penned by real-life Special Forces soldiers in the battlefield in case they don't make it home alive.
Locky was on the verge of tears as he read out his letter to the other recruits.
'Dear the best thing that's ever happened to me in my whole entire life, Irena,' he began.
'I love you more than I can say. What matters most is not my desires and my ambitions, it's our future together. Without you in it, I have nothing.'
The Australian Survivor star went on to reveal the importance of family in his life.
'Please tell mum and Bon, my sister, I love and miss them so much, and when I get back I'll make more of an effort to stay in contact. There needs to be more family in my life and that starts with me.'
Locky concluded: 'Irena, you are my everything. I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with you. I love you so much. Locky.'
