The country star revealed how “nervous” she is for the big day as “everybody will be looking at her”.
Cliona told The Six O’Clock Show: “Oh my goodness… I am so nervous! I mean really, really nervous.
“When you’re on stage performing, it’s so different because that’s where I feel most comfortable. I love singing and I love being on stage.
“But when it comes to walking down the aisle I’m so petrified because obviously everybody will be looking at me.
“I just find it so nerve-wracking. It’s just so weird or something.”
