A MAFS couple who were not paired up on the show have shared their VERY extravagant wedding plans.

Controversial bride Jacqui Burfoot, who was paired up with Ryan Donnelly in this year's series of Married At First Sight Australia, later found love with Clint Rice, who had been paired up with Lauren Hall in the same series.

The pair then announced their engagement in April, after a whirlwind romance that began during the show, with Clint getting down on one knee and Jacqui saying "yes".

Opening up in an exclusive interview with The Sun, the smitten couple looked extremely loved up as they dished on their wedding plans.

Jacqui and Clint gushed over their extravagant plans for when they tie the knot, revealing when their big day will likely take place, and which MAFS co-star is slated to make a special appearance.

"I've got these ideas, and you know, like I want things at my wedding," Jacqui told The Sun.

"If I was to have a wedding, or a wedding celebration, or a wedding party of some kind, I want sparklers there, because I think it'd be really cool, and I want to pop some champagne.

"And I want to have fireworks."

 

She later added: "If we have a party, we want to have Morena DJ, but we also want to have a jazz band.

"So I've kind of said like we could have a jazz band first, and then have Morena [Farina] at a party.

"And we still haven't decided whether we want to have like a 3 day event where you've got a welcome party, and then you've got the wedding day, and then you've got a barbecue post the next day.

"So we're deciding where the entertainment would be."

Speaking about wanting an intimate moment on their wedding day, Jacqui explained: "Because we had a public engagement, we want to have more of an intimate wedding to balance it out.

"I personally want to have a private moment just between Clint and I, because I didn't get that private moment with our engagement.

"I'd love to have that at like a formal private moment with just the two of us as well.

"Whether it's, I know some people do reading your vows together. Or some people just do like a sunset walk on their wedding day together.

"Something that's just the two of us where nobody else is invited to view or watch, and that would be really important to me just to capture that between the two of us."

Revealing when she and Clint will likely get wed, Jacqui said: "Realistically. Next year, I think, yeah, it'd be like, hopefully, summer.

"So in between November this year and end of autumn next year will probably be the plan.

"6 months somewhere around there. Yeah."
