Robert Irwin's sneak peek into fanged and furry guest list at Bindi’s wedding

Robert Irwin has revealed the animals that may be present at his sister’s wedding to former wakeboarder Chandler Powell.

Speaking backstage at the ARIA Awards in Sydney on Wednesday, the 15-year-old said there will be koalas and some bigger animals at Bindi’s upcoming wedding next year.

 “Yes, there are going to be animals at Bindi’s wedding, it’s going to be very exciting,” Robert said.

“She definitely wants koalas walking down the aisle and I think we’re going to incorporate some larger animals as well.”

Robert joked, “And maybe some crocodiles!”

The reveal comes after Bindi shared that she will be walking down the aisle with a koala.

Speaking to Good Morning America in October alongside her husband-to-be, Bindi said she was “excited” about their forthcoming nuptials at Australia Zoo.

“It’s where we met and where we got engaged so it only makes sense that we’d have it at Australia Zoo. I think this wedding is going to be unique because it’s going to be at the zoo with tons of animals,” Chandler said.

“I’m not sure how many people have walked down the aisle with a koala, but we may be setting some new trends for weddings from here on out!” Bindi said.

 “The easiest part of wedding planning is just knowing that I get to marry this amazing guy. Whatever else happens, it doesn’t matter.”
