MAFS Melissa and Bryce have a not-so-elegant moment during their first dance as they both fall

Married At First Sight’s Bryce Ruthven and Melissa Rawson had a not-so-elegant moment during their beautiful Sorrento wedding after they both fell to the floor during their first dance.  

The couple – who first walked down the aisle together on MAFS season eight in 2021 – legally got married on Friday at an elegant beachside wedding in Victoria. 

After exchanging vows at the altar, the couple had a hilarious fail while having their first dance, set to an acoustic version of Joel Corry and MNEK’s Head & Heart. 

In a video posted to Instagram, Bryce can be seen dipping his new bride during the heartwarming number. 

But, unfortunately, while showing off his dance moves, he was extremely off balance as they both toppled and fell to the floor.

Luckily, no one was hurt and the happy couple saw the fun in it as they both burst out laughing.

The spectacular wedding was attended by many familiar faces, including fellow MAFS stars Jason Engler, Belinda Vickets, Nick Furphy and Steve Burley. 

Melissa, 34, stunned in a strapless ivory gown with a sweetheart neckline and low back for her big day. 

The dress gathered at the waist and featured covered buttons, before flaring into a full skirt.

She added a long, flowing veil, which was pinned into her half-up hairdo consisting of loose strands and a long ponytail.

Melissa chose a clean makeup look for the occasion with a pink nude lipstick, and added a smattering of accessories, including glittering earrings.

Bryce, 33, matched Melissa’s colour scheme, wearing a beige blazer and white shirt worn slightly unbuttoned.

He pinned a white rose to his lapel, and added a pair of dark trousers to his wedding ensemble.

The couple shared a passionate smooch after exchanging their vows, Bryce collecting his new bride in his arms.

The loved-up couple couldn’t keep their hands off each other, exchanging looks of endearment and sweet embraces.

They sipped champagne with the gorgeous ocean vista in the background, with a stream of family and friends congratulating them.

The pair’s 16-month-old twins, Levi and Tate, were part of the ceremony, with Bryce and his groomsman holding the little boys up for photos.

Their union on the show was controversial after Bryce was accused by viewers of ‘domestic abuse’ and gaslighting.

However, Melissa always maintained she didn’t view their relationship as abusive.

A Change.org petition calling for Channel Nine to apologise for ‘failing in its duty of care’ towards Melissa gained thousands of signatures, but it was dismissed by the network.

In July 2021, the pair announced they were expecting twins, and soon after became engaged.

At the time, Bryce shared a video of the heartwarming moment he proposed to his girlfriend Melissa during a helicopter ride to Instagram.
