Anthony Albanese shares wedding details

Anthony Albanese and his fiancé Jodie Haydon have revealed details of their upcoming wedding for the first time. 

Chatting candidly with Australian Women's Weekly, the couple admitted they are planning to tie the knot in a "small, intimate ceremony" in spring after the federal election.

"Our wedding will be a moment when we make that commitment," Haydon told the magazine.

"We're doing it in front of family and loved ones, and I see that as … for us. It's something we're looking forward to — an important and symbolic way to reaffirm our commitment with each other."

Albanese and Haydon are planning on waiting until after the election, which is expected to be held in April or May, to get married in order to not have their big day wrapped up in politics. 

The ceremony will not be held in a Catholic church due to Albanese's prior divorce but could be outdoors, Haydon added, with their dog Toto playing a role.

"It will be small, intimate," Haydon said. "Probably a spring wedding."

"Possibly outdoors, in the second half of this year, with our family and loved ones … And you can be sure Toto will make an appearance."

Albanese revealed the moment he decided Haydon was the woman he wanted to marry, and how he decided to propose on Valentine's Day last year. 

While gesturing towards the Lodge, the Prime Minister told the reporter, "This will end one day, and the thing about our relationship is that we enjoy spending time together. Just us."

"So, when it became clear to me that Jodie was the person I wanted to spend the rest of my life with, and that I couldn't imagine a life without her, I made the decision."
