"Some moments from the happiest day of my life," she captioned a series of posts on Instagram.

Lizzie went public with her relationship with Alex just months earlier in April 2022 after months of keeping their romance private.

"As a whole, I'm incredibly private, I did reality TV a lifetime ago. I'm so protective over my partner and there are so many negative, gossiping people out there, that go out of their way to talk trash," she wrote on Instagram at the time.

Lizzie first appeared on MAFS in Season 6 where she was matched with Sam Ball.

Things started off rocky between the pair, with Sam body shaming her on their wedding day. It only got worse when he pursued a relationship with fellow bride Ines Basic.

Lizzie returned to the experiment in 2020 for Season 7, where she walked down the aisle again to be matched with Seb Guilhaus.

The couple continued their relationship outside of the experiment but split after a year.

It seems like third time really is a charm and we wish Lizzie and Alex all the best for their new life together as husband and wife!
