"We did things in a little bit of a weird way ... we went on our honeymoon first, mainly because we actually had a friend's wedding overseas," Lexi told nine.com.au in an exclusive interview at the Melbourne Cup on Tuesday.

"So we went to that, then our honeymoon, then tomorrow we are off to the Maldives for our destination wedding.

"We'll be there for a week with family and friends."

For a couple due to fly overseas to get married the next day, the pair were effortlessly calm during their day at Flemington Racecourse.

The couple chose the tropical paradise for their destination wedding because it's where they got engaged.

"We're excited to bring everyone back there," Lexi said.

"We're definitely going to make a conscious effort to really be switched off and just be with the people around us [on the day]."
