Olivia Buckland reveals she’s asked Love Island voiceover man Iain Stirling to do a speech at wedding to Alex Bowen
The reality star couple are getting married in September after coming second on Love Island in 2016
LOVE Island's Olivia Buckland has asked the show's voiceover star Iain Stirling to do a speech at her wedding.
Olivia will marry co-star Alex Bowen in September and has revealed the Love Island funny man will play a part in their big day.
Speaking in her New magazine column, Olivia, 24, said: "By the time you read this, Alex and I will have seen Love Island's Voice over man Iain Sterling's stand up comedy show, U OK Hun?
"Iain is coming to the wedding and we're going to ask him to do a speech because he's known us since we met two years ago.
"He's honestly the most hilarious person and he's one of our really good friends, so anything we can do to support him we do."
Alex and Olivia met Iain, who is dating Irish TV presenter Laura Whitmore, when they came second on Love Island back in 2016.
Alex and Olivia got engaged during a trip to New York in late 2016.
They have booked their wedding for September 2018, and the loved-up couple are planning the details.
She previously told The Sun's Fabulous magazine: "Wedding planning is coming along slowly. Alex and I have both been mega-busy, but we try to carve out an hour or so every now and again to get bits done, as we’re getting married in September.
"I have my own wedding email account. I’m very organised, so I’ll try to finish off the guest list or browse some dresses before logging off for the day."

They were set to be the first couple from the show to marry but were pipped at the post by Jessica Shears and Dominic Lever who married live on TV on Valentine’s Day this year.
And while the scantily clad couple “wed” in front of Richard Arnold, Alex joked to The Sun Online that he and Olivia thought they would tie the knot on The Jeremy Kyle Show.
Alex said: “It was quite classy for them; we thought they’d do it on Jeremy Kyle, but best of luck to the happy couple.”
“We had such a laugh and can’t wait for the REAL wedding now in October 💕 #learntotakeajokekids"
