The 20-year-old wore a similar dress, rocking a latte-coloured satin slip for the occasion.

Among the guests was Kyle Sandilands’ wife Tegan, who made the trek from a residence in Vaucluse where the bride, her bridal party and friends were getting ready for the wedding.

Dressed in a dark purple strapless gown, Tegan was seen hopping into a waiting vehicle along with some of the bridesmaids.

The bride and her nearest and dearest had a girls-only gathering this past weekend ahead of the wedding.

While Cox did not appear to attend the event, Tegan was there along with other visitors from out of town.
