Andy and Alex tied the knot in October 2022.
The lovebirds said their vows in front of all their celebrity friends as they got married in a glamorous tent outside the Terrara House.
Some guests included Magdalena Roze and husband Darren Robertson, Melissa Leong and former Bachelor alum Cat Henesey-Smith.
It comes after Andy recently opened up about his final meeting with Jock Zonfrillo, revealing that he saw the late celebrity chef just a couple of hours before he died.
Jock, who was found dead aged 46 in a Melbourne hotel room in 2023, co-judged alongside Andy on hit cooking show MasterChef Australia from 2020 up until his death.
In a sit-down interview with 7NEWS Spotlight last month, Andy got candid about the last time he saw his friend, revealing he met Jock for lunch the day before his body was discovered.
'I've got hairs standing up already,' he told Liz Hayes as he looked back on his and Jock's final meal together, a moment he reflects back on a lot.
Andy went on to reveal that he had no idea that there was anything amiss during his last meeting with the celebrity chef.
'That's the thing that hurts the most,' he told Liz with tears in his eyes, 'because it was so sudden.'
Elsewhere in the heartbreaking interview, Andy recounted the moment he was given the news of Jock's passing by his wife Lauren Zonfrillo.
The chef admitted that the grief of losing his close friend hit him 'straight away', a feeling that made him instantly ill.
'As soon as I got off the phone, I ran straight to the bathroom and I vomited everywhere,' he said.
Andy also shared how he still grieves his friend daily.
'I always think of him. And I miss him, I miss him so much. It's crazy that that never goes' he said.
'That being reminded of him wherever I go and no matter what I do, it is still as strong as the day that he passed two years ago.'
