Josh Hazlewood wedding: cricket star marries Cherina Murphy-Christian

Hazlewood wed Cherina Murphy-Christian last Wednesday, in what Aaron Hazlewood said was a "small, sort of low-key wedding" attended by family and close friends including the likeable star's Bendemeer-based parents, Trevor and Anne.

Oxley High schoolmates of Hazlewood mingled with cricket internationals such Australian captain Pat Cummins, Mitchell Starc, Nathan Lyon, Mitchell Marsh and Travis Head.

Tamworth-based Aaron, who is also a fast bowler, and one of Hazlewood's schoolmates were members of the wedding party.

"The weather was great - couldn't have got a better day," Aaron said.

"It was really good to see him finally tie the knot to his high school sweetheart," he added.

The three-day event - which Aaron described as "well-planned" - included a round at the Cypress Lakes Golf and Country Club the day before the wedding.

"That also was a really good day ... It just added to how good a week it really was," he said.

A family lunch was held the day after the nuptials.

Aaron said the three days "couldn't have worked out any better".

"Everything went to plan. It was a really special couple of days."

He continued: "We planned a few other things in and around it [the wedding].

"It's not very often everyone gets together in the same place, so we try to make the most of it when we can."

The Bendemeer-raised gun and Murphy-Christian were in the same year at Oxley High.

"She's been part of the family for a long time," Aaron said.

The Sydney-based couple had delayed their honeymoon, he also said, adding: "But I'm sure they'll plan something down the track a bit further when they've got some spare time."
