MALTA – Australian singer Delta Goodrem has shared the first official photos from her fairytale wedding to fellow musician Matthew Copley, calling the event “more magical than we both could have dreamed.”

The couple tied the knot in June 2025 in the historic city of Mdina, Malta, surrounded by family and close friends. Delta posted a heartwarming carousel of pictures on Instagram with the caption: “June 2025, Husband and Wife.”

The wedding ceremony took place at the 12th-century St Paul’s Cathedral in Mdina — a location as breathtaking as the couple’s love story. Delta described the experience as “a family fairytale wedding brought to life by so many angels surrounding us.”

She added, “We are holding on to every memory from that moment – the love, the laughter, the happy tears, and dancing till the sun came up.”

Delta stunned in a custom Paolo Sebastian bridal gown. The off-shoulder French tulle ball gown, complete with a 2.5-meter train and cathedral veil, took more than three months to create. It was inspired by the frescoes of St Paul’s Cathedral and embroidered with personal touches like the couple’s wedding date.

The gown was described by fashion house Paolo Sebastian as “a culmination of art, romance, and heritage.”

For the reception, Delta changed into two more dresses designed by Con Ilio — one was a modern, drop-waist gown hand-beaded with crystals and pearls, and the other a high-neck silk dress for the afterparty.

The evening also featured special performances by Vince Pizzinga and Conrad Sewell, adding a personal and musical touch to the celebration. Delta praised her entire wedding team — including her jeweler, stylist, hair and makeup artists, photographers, and videographers — for making the event unforgettable.

One of the photographers, Matt Porteous, is also known for his work with the British royal family, having captured portraits of the Prince and Princess of Wales.

Delta and Matthew met during a music tour in 2016, and their bond grew stronger through their shared passion. Matthew proposed in Malta in September 2023. Earlier this year, Delta celebrated her upcoming wedding with a hen’s party in Sydney.

The newlyweds now plan to celebrate again back home in Australia as Mr. and Mrs. Copley.
