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.

Matildas star and her partner reveal why their baby's gender reveal was a 'flop' as they lift the lid on why some were 'upset' over their exciting news
Emily Van Egmond and her wife Kat Thompson have opened up on their journey to becoming new mums on Instagram, revealing that their baby's initial gender reveal turned out to be a 'flop'. The couple, who were married in December 2024 in a beautiful wedding ceremony in the Hunter Valley, announced the exciting news that they were expecting a baby back in April. 'Baby Van Egmond coming October,' they wrote on Instagram, sharing an image of the besotted couple standing with pictures of their baby scans. Since then, Thompson has shared multiple snaps of her pregnancy journey, including pictures of her and Van Egmond lapping up the sun on a vacation to Spain, and a trip down Regent Street on a visit to London. On Thursday, the pair took to Instagram to reveal that they had taken a gender test to find out the sex of their baby. They had initially shared a black and white clip on social media of themselves cutting a cake with a pair of wine glasses, before learning the gender of their baby. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Kat Van Egmond (@kaaatthompson) The pair announced their exciting baby news back in April, sharing snaps of their baby scans online They had initially posted the clip with a black and white filter, meaning that their Instagram followers were unable to see what the sex of their baby was. Thompson revealed that this had 'upset' some online. In her latest Instagram post, Thompson republished the black and white video of her and Van Egmond jumping with joy at learning the gender of their unborn baby. However, Thompson then revealed that the clip was taken before the pair had learned that there was a lab error with their gender tests. 'Little did they know there was a lab error with their gender test and would go 16 weeks picking a name, buying clothes, and sharing the news before finding out the truth,' a text banner on the video clip read. Thompson then went on to clarify that the pair were hoping to keep some details of their family life private. 'So our gender reveal was a flop,' she said in the video's caption, adding a 'grinning face' emoji. '[It] was definitely a shock originally but makes for a good story now! 'So many people ended up seeing our first post with this video and were upset it was black and white, but that's mainly because it was wrong! The pair had made the announcement with a black and white video, with their followers unable to see the colour of the cake as they cut into it. Thompson wrote that the pair were hoping to keep some details of their family life to themselves 'And we love these moments but some details we want to keep to ourselves and family.' Thompson added a 'heart' emoji before writing: 'Strongly advise against any early gender blood tests!' It comes a week after Thompson also took to Instagram to celebrate hers and Van Egmond's journey so far. The heartwarming clip showed the pair in the early months of their relationship. It then flicked to clips of Thompson supporting her beau while Van Egmond played for the Matildas. The pair shared a kiss on the touchline, before sharing pictures of their wedding, and how she announced to her partner that she was pregnant. Van Egmond, 32, who is currently playing for Birmingham City, popped the question to Thompson in June 2023 in San Diego, California. They'd tie the knot at the lavish Krinklewood Estate in New South Wales' Hunter Valley, with many of her Australia team-mates attending the ceremony. Sam Kerr and her partner Kristie Mewis both attended alongside Arsenal star Katie McCabe and her partner Caitlin Foord. Van Egmond has made 163 appearances for Australia over her glittering international career, notably also travelling around the world to play domestic football for a range of teams, from Newcastle Jets to West Ham United.

Alan Sheehan says Swansea plan to build on buzz of Snoop Dogg becoming co-owner
The 53-year-old American rapper joined a growing list of celebrity investors in British football last month by becoming part of a Swansea ownership group that already included Croatia midfield great Luka Modric. Multi award-winning Snoop said Swansea's 'underdog' story 'really struck a chord with me' and his vast following on social media – 89 million on Instagram and 20.5 million on X – quickly learned about the Welsh club and his love for Joe's ice cream in the city. Swansea City is delighted to announce global rap superstar and multi-platinum selling artist @SnoopDogg has become the club's latest high-profile co-owner and investor. 👉 — Swansea City AFC (@SwansOfficial) July 17, 2025 'To have Snoop and Luka on board is a massive benefit,' Swansea boss Sheehan said ahead of Saturday's league opener at Middlesbrough. 'There is a buzz, obviously. As a football club you have to become more appealing commercially, to be more competitive, and appeal to the wider nation. 'It's different to how it was maybe when I was a player, but I understand why, and I totally welcome it. 'Rome wasn't built in a day, but there are big plans for the football club. 'It's about building strong foundations and building that character and resilience within the football club.' Comparisons with Wrexham, who are owned by Hollywood actors Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, are unavoidable and already being made. The two Welsh clubs are Championship rivals this season after Wrexham became the first team in the top five tiers of English football to win three successive promotions. A docu-series tracking life at Swansea, on similar lines to the award-winning FX show 'Welcome to Wrexham', is understood to be already in the pipeline. Asked if Swansea – who were relegated in 2018 after seven seasons in the Premier League – were the 'new' Wrexham, Sheehan said: 'No, we're Swansea. We're not new anything. 'Now they're in our division, I suppose, it becomes more there now (rivalry), but we don't play them until December. So I won't really be speaking about them until December.' Modric – who joined the board in April following a takeover led by American businessmen Brett Cravatt and Jason Cohen six months earlier – was unveiled as an AC Milan player on Monday after his trophy-littered 13-year spell at Real Madrid ended this summer. The 39-year-old has played his part in Sheehan's summer recruitment strategy, actively persuading players to join the Welsh club. 'Obviously, his transfer situation… he was unavailable to come here,' smiled Sheehan. 'We've had a few text messages and he's involved. 'Luka has spoke to some players, passed on his knowledge, what he knows about the football club, and the plans that we have for it. 'Snoop and Luka are very invested in the club. They care, they speak through the ownership and the ownership are very good to us.' So will Grammy-nominated Snoop soon be swapping California for Swansea to watch a game? 'I believe so,' said Sheehan. 'But I'm not sure which game yet. It would be very naive and narrow-minded to think two very successful people in what they do could not help us. 'Successful people have a lot in common – a work ethic, a grit, a determination to get where they want to get to. So with Snoop, Luka and the ownership there is a lot of positivity around the football club.'
