- Smith married an American girlfriend
- The wedding ceremony took place in Brisbane
- Smith recently purchased a mansion for $4.85 million
Australian golf champion Cameron Smith married Shanel Naoum in a beautiful wedding ceremony in Brisbane on Saturday.
The happy couple exchanged vows at St Stephen's Cathedral in front of around 150 friends and family, many of whom traveled from far and wide to attend the ceremony.
Smith looked sharp in a black tuxedo, but it was Naoum who stole the show in a white strapless tulle and lace froufrou dress with a floor-length veil.
Naoum, an American chiropractor, was surrounded by seven bridesmaids dressed in deep burgundy.
“Everyone was doing their best in fashion, there were tuxedos everywhere,” said an onlooker News Corp.

Bystanders said 'there wasn't a dry eye in the house' at the ceremony in Brisbane
“Even his fake friends have scrubbed themselves up well,” the audience member continued.
“It looked more like a star-studded Hollywood event than rugged Australian golfers.”
Other onlookers reported that there “wasn't a dry eye in the house” during the beautiful ceremony.
Coaches then transported guests to the waterfront reception at Rivershed at Howard Smith Wharves.
Smith is one of Australia's most prominent golfers and was included on Forbes' annual athlete rich list this year.
Photos taken before Christmas showed Shanel “wearing a large diamond ring as the couple ran errands,” the newspaper reported.
The couple were spotted shopping for homewares at Kitchen Warehouse near Cam's $4.85 million Brisbane mansion.
Although it is unclear how long the very intimate couple has been together, Shanel has been seen at Cam's side at tournaments since 2022.

Smith was revealed to have raked in a whopping $110 million in the past 12 months, reaching the top 20.
The Queenslander was one of 12 golfers, including seven LIV players, to make the top 50, a massive increase from just three years ago.
It is reported that Smith was paid $140 million (£74.8 million) to join LIV, a professional golf tour, which he did after winning the 2022 British Open.
In addition to his course in Brisbane, the Brisbane-raised golfer has called Jacksonville, Florida, his home for several years and has a luxury home there.
World number 6 Smith, who beat American star Cameron Young by one stroke to lift the Open trophy at St Andrews last year, bought the mansion in April 2020 for just over $3.5 million.
