A HEAVILY pregnant Tiffani Wood has married her fiance Neil Cummins in a tranquil ceremony just outside Byron Bay.

Wood and her security manager/promoter beau were married at the The Crystal Castle in an evening ceremony on Sunday.

About 60 guests attended the wedding at the venue, which features a stone-carved Blessing Buddha and overlooks Byron Bay's spectacular hinterland.

The Newcastle-raised songstress has signed an exclusive deal with OK! Magazine, which will publish her wedding pictures next month.

Wood and Cummins, who are expecting their first child at Easter, will honeymoon in the Cook Islands.

Wood previously told The Word that the pair met at the right time in their lives and have enjoyed an 18-month engagement.

Sunday was not the first time Wood has slipped into a wedding dress.

In April last year at Australian Fashion Week she took to the runway in a flowing lace wedding dress with fitted bodice for designer Dorian Ho.

At the end of the runway she blew a kiss to Cummins who stood up and handed the model a posy of flowers.

The former Newcastle Grammar School student shot to fame by winning a place in the Pop Stars group Bardot in 2000.

She released an independent album, Bite Your Tongue, last year and has been performing burlesque shows in the Hunter and Sydney.
