Earlier this year, Tom opened up about the wedding, and revealed that he and Dustin were busy making decisions about their big day. "It's all going well, we're looking at dates, but everything is staying under wraps at the moment," he told the Mirror. "Who knows what it's going to be like, I haven't been to a wedding since I was five, so I have no idea. We just want to do what we like. We'll just make it us." The star also revealed that he knew he wanted to marry Dustin from the very start of their relationship. "After the first week we’d been together, I just knew," he said. "And ever since then it's just felt like a waste of time not being married to Lance."

Tom announced his engagement to Dustin Lance Black in October 2015

The wedding comes six months after the couple were rocked by cheating allegations. But they now appear to be stronger than ever. Speaking previously about their romance, Dustin said: "It's really amazing to be in love with someone who you also admire and who you can be dazzled by. It makes me want to be a better person. I feel like the luckiest guy in the world." Tom and Dustin first met back in 2013, and announced their engagement in October 2015.
