Olly Murs and Amelia Tank have made sure their wedding is definitely one to remember for all of their wedding guests.

The Voice star and bodybuilder tired the knot in front of friends and family a year after the singer got down on one knee.

Olly's close pal Mark Wright confirmed the happy news posting a photo of the groom on his Instagram page with the caption: "Celebrating this one @ollymurs and @tankintraining wedding day. Love you both x."

The TV personality shared a video teasing a glimpse of the festival-themed celebration with a plane trailing a banner that read: "Olly & Amelia Just Married."

Teasing that there would be fun to be had for guests, a ferris wheel was spotted peaking out from the trees at the venue for the big day.

A closer look at the wedding shows them billing it as 'Murs Fest', with a teepee lounge area, merry-go-round, a stage for performers and even on-site loos.

While constructing the wedding area, a large covered see-through building can be seen and will provide guests with extra cover from the rain.

Another birds eye view of the ceremony shows chairs arranged in circles around fire pits and another tent by an onsite building.

Musicians were spotted making their way to the venue for the nupitals using a sea taxi.

The talented group were all smiles as they were transported to the festival-style venue for the happy couple's celebrations.

Neither Olly nor Amelia have posted about their wedding, but they will be tying the knot this weekend 13 months after the Heart Skips A Beat musician popped the question.

Olly - who began dating his bodybuilder fiancee Amelia in 2019, previously told the Mirror that he's transformed into a flower obsessed groomzilla ahead of the wedding.

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…”

One thing he won't be doing, however, is getting up on stage to perform to his guests.

"Amelia has to listen to me singing enough," he said. And the wedding day is not about me, it’s about her. I want her to have the most magical day and I want all eyes to be on her.”

The couple first met on Instagram and had their first date in the gym before they went public with their romance on New Year's Day in 2020. And he's convinced he's found his soulmate and that their relationship will be for keeps.

He said: "We love each other and every day I’ve been with her, we get on – as best friends and as partners. We’re both at a point at our lives where we’ve done our craziness and we want to have the responsibilities and family.

"I couldn’t think of a better person to do that with – so I’m in this till the end."
