Gemma Collins has opened up on her lavish wedding plans following her engagement to Rami Hawash and her pals Jedward have a very important job.
The Only Way Is Essex star, 43, will tie the knot with her businessman fiancé, 49, not once, not twice, but thrice, with a whopping three wedding ceremonies.
Revealing her plans for the extravagant nuptials, Gemma said she wants multiple ceremonies – one in the UK, a second celebration abroad, and a ‘formal one’ for the couple’s nearest and dearest.
She shared that her celebrity pals John and Edward Grimes, better known as Jedward, will walk her down the aisle and that she and Rami consider them their children alongside Rami’s actual son Tristan.
‘They are my dog’s godfathers, after all. They’re honestly like family to me, I adore them,’ Gemma told The Mirror.
Rami added: ‘Jedward are like our kids and they’re so good to Tristan. They’re part of our family now.’

As well as multiple ceremonies, the reality TV star is also planning to have a selection of wedding dresses – taking inspiration from Lady Gaga and Victoria Beckham when planning her bridal looks.
She continued: ‘I would love something similar to the lace one Lady Gaga wore in House Of Gucci. I might even go back to my roots and wear something really Essex-like and over the top.
‘At the moment I’m thinking something Italian-themed, then a ‘wow’ one with a huge train. I might even recreate Victoria Beckham’s wedding moment with the tiara, I loved that.’
DJ Fat Tony is who Gemma would like to provide entertainment, and she is planning to have her former TOWIE co-stars on the guest list.
Gemma and Rami have been together on and off since 2011, announcing their engagement in 2021 when Rami popped the question when the lovebirds holidayed in the Maldives.
Gemma and Rami met at the famous Chigwell pub King William, with Rami appearing on series nine of TOWIE while dating the star.

They first got engaged in 2013 when Rami popped the question in a unique and festive manner, hiding a glitzy ring in a Christmas pudding.
The couple called their engagement off weeks later, before rekindling their romance following Gemma’s split from James ‘Arg’ Argent in 2020.
Gemma and Rami were spotted on a number of dates together, before confirming their romance in 2021 and getting engaged again months later.
Confirming the news at the time, Gemma told The Times: ‘Yeah, but we can’t really come out and say anything yet because Ram was married before and his paperwork has not come through, so until that’s officially signed, we’ve not said anything.
‘They’ve not been together for two years. I know her, she’s got a partner, she’s as good as gold. There’s a child involved, he’s only three, obviously I love him to death. But until that paperwork’s signed I can’t come out.’
Opening up on the romantic moment on Valentine’s Day, Gemma assured fans her engagement ring is ‘huge’ and offered some words of wisdom to her Instagram followers.

‘If you are single this Valentine’s embrace your time embrace yourself because one day you WILL BE ❤️ he/she … them/they are COMING for YOU.
‘So live your life and just trust the process and girls I didn’t have a clue I had no make up ! no bra on !!!! I didn’t know it was being filmed I thought I was having a chilled beach dinner,’ she added.
‘You have all been on this huge journey with me !!! I spent so many years not being appreciated for the woman I am !!!!
‘Wasted so much time on the wrong people who took advantage of my good nature heart … however it lead me to my KING @rami_hawash_ this man APPRECIATES ME one million percent!
‘And he is man enough for the GC! He’s always been my biggest weakness and my strength.’
