Reggie’s romantic wedding

The popular big brother star says ‘I do’ in a beautiful sunset ceremony.

With one hand holding her veil in place and the other clutching a bottle of Corona beer, Regina “Reggie” Bird was finally on the way to her long-awaited wedding to her beau of 18 months, Dale Sorensen. And the relief on her face was clear.

In the lead-up to the big event, what was meant to be the happiest day of Reggie’s life kept threatening to become a disaster, with one thing after another going wrong, including the event hire company pulling out just 72 hours before the wedding.

But the 2003 Big Brother winner’s famous happy-go-lucky nature saved her from a Bridezilla-style meltdown as her carefully made plans began to unravel. Luckily, her sister and bridesmaid Anita Bingham was by her side and their sisterly humour left Reggie, 33, all smiles as her bridal boat sped her up the Gold Coast’s Coomera River to her nuptials at a luxury canal-front home on Sovereign Island.

With his bride more than an hour late, Dale, 35, and their seven-month-old daughter Mia were getting anxious. As the boat pulled into its berth, Reggie’s father Steven helped her off the vessel and walked her to the wedding venue to the strains of Joe Cocker’s You Are So Beautiful
