Inside Tammy Slaton's wedding day - behind-the-scenes pictures and secret heartbreak

1000-lb Sisters star Tammy Slaton tied the knot with her other half Caleb Willingham after meeting at a food rehabilitation centre.

The loved-up couple said 'I do' at the Windsor Lane Rehabilitation Centre in Ohio back in November, with the special day featuring on the latest episode of Tammy's TLC reality show.

36-year-old Tammy has described her wedding day as "the best day of our lives" and said she plans on "living life to the fullest" after getting married.

Her proud family have now taken to Instagram to share some behind-the-scenes snaps from the big day, with her sister Amy Slaton also opening up about her secret heartbreak.

Tammy's brother Chris Combs posted some beautiful pictures of his sister in her wedding dress.

Tammy opted for a classic white dress which featured ruffled straps and a matching trim. She wore a silver tiara and white veil, adding a long silver necklace to complete her look.

The reality star styled her hair in tight curls and added a sunflower to the back of her hairstyle. She beamed for the camera as she showed off her unusual choice of footwear.

Tammy decided to break away from tradition and wore a cute pair of Crocs which were full of colourful charms.

Chris also shared some snaps of himself and his wife Brittany Combs, after he pushed Tammy down the aisle in her wheelchair.

Chris wore a black suit and crisp white shirt, adding a sunflower lapel. He opted for an orange tie which went perfectly with his wife's dress.

Tammy had asked her sister Amy to be her maid of honour and help organise the ceremony, something which Amy happily accepted.

Giving a speech at the reception, Amy, who wore an orange bridesmaids dress, said: "You always been my big sister. We've always been Amy and Tammy, Amy and Tammy, Amy and Tammy, the Slaton sisters."

"And now it's like Amy Halterman and, what was your last name, I'm sorry?" she asked before the other guests burst out laughing.

Tammy reminded her sister that she's now Mrs Willingham.

Speaking in a confessional on the show, Amy became emotional as she said: "We were the Slaton sisters and now I'm a Halterman and she's a Willingham, she's Mrs Caleb."

"It's a little, you know, it's not us anymore. We're not the Slaton sisters no more," she added as she wiped away tears.

Amy continued: "I don't know, it's just bittersweet to end that era."

With Amy's help, Tammy had decorated the reception hall with orange tablecloths and sunflowers dotted around. Her wedding cake was a simple white cake which was also decorated with bright flowers.

In a clip shared on TLC's Instagram page, Caleb gushed over his bride.

"Tammy's my beautiful princess," he said. "She's got her tiara shining, she's got her hair done up, everything looks perfect. She's perfect anyways, but she has that extra glow about her."

Tammy's husband wore a black polo shirt for the wedding ceremony which he styled with orange suspenders.

Following the theme, Caleb attached a sunflower to his pocket.

He was overcome with emotion as he saw Tammy make her way down the aisle and had to wipe away tears of joy after seeing his blushing bride.

Caleb said his heart "exploded" when he laid eyes on Tammy in her wedding dress.

Speaking on 1000-lb Sisters, Tammy said: "When I saw Caleb at the alter, I just pictured doves and butterflies all around, like God had opened up the clouds and let the sunlight in."

"It was magical, she added.
