Justin Bieber and his wife Hailey celebrated their fifth wedding anniversary on Wednesday.
The couple tied the knot at a New York City courthouse on September 13, 2018, just months after Justin’s final split from his on/off girlfriend Selena Gomez.
In honor of the milestone, the 29-year-old Baby hitmaker wrote a heartfelt Instagram tribute to his “beloved” Hailey and shared photos from their outing in Tokyo.
“To the most precious, my loved ones,” Justin wrote. ‘5 years. You have captivated my heart. I know from the depths of my soul to my bones that this journey with you will only exceed our wildest expectations.
“So let’s keep dreaming, big baby. Cheers forever and ever. I love you with every fiber of my being.”

The couple married on September 13, 2018 in a New York City courthouse, just months after Justin’s final split from his on/off girlfriend Selena Gomez.
He ended the caption with, “HAPPY 5 YEAR BIRTHDAY!!!”
In her own tribute post, Hailey included photos of their romantic trip together and captioned it, “5 ✨ (HEART) I love you.”
On their special day, the couple dined for two at chic eatery Panevia, which Justin appears to have rented out for the night.
They ate fresh sushi and received a custom-made cake with white icing, red roses and a plate with their faces drawn in chocolate.
Hailey beamed next to her husband, who rocked a black leather trench coat and a satin slip dress.
Justin wore a backwards red cap, an oversized blue button-up shirt and jeans for the occasion.
On another night out, the married duo were dressed to the nines in stylish threads as they strolled hand-in-hand through the streets of Tokyo.
Hailey shared more photos to her Instagram Story, calling Justin “happy anniversary” one more time.
After saying their “I Dos” in a New York courthouse, Justin and Hailey hosted an elaborate ceremony at the Montage Palmetto Bluff hotel in South Carolina the following year.

“I know from the depths of my soul to my bones that this journey with you will only exceed our wildest expectations,” Justin wrote.
“I love you with every fiber of my being,” the Grammy Award winner gushed
They were first introduced in 2009 by Hailey’s father Stephen Baldwin at the premiere of Justin’s documentary Never Say Never.
The pair then had a brief fling in 2016 amid his decade-long romance with Selena Gomez.
When he and the 30-year-old Disney Channel alum finally called it quits for good in May 2018, Justin fell into Hailey’s arms and they’ve been joined at the hip ever since.
The couple has spoken candidly about their relationship over the years, including their “really tough” first year of marriage.
Speaking to GQ in 2021, Justin revealed that his and Hailey’s initial problems stemmed from “trauma” and “just a lack of trust.”
“There were all these things you don’t want to admit to the person you’re with because it’s scary. You don’t want to scare them off by saying, ‘I’m scared,'” he explained.
The Sorry hitmaker admitted he was ‘walking on eggshells’ during the first year of marriage, but now he has never felt more stable.
The couple has a mutual desire for children, but Hailey recently expressed her concerns about putting a family in the spotlight.
‘I want children so badly, but I get scared. It’s enough that people say things about my husband or my friends,” she told the newspaper Sunday Times in May.
‘I can’t imagine having to confront people who say things about a child. We can only do our best to raise them. As long as they feel loved and safe.’
Earlier this year, the Rhode Skincare founder shared that she and Justin would like to start a family “in the next few years.”

‘You don’t know how long that process (of becoming pregnant) will take. Definitely no kids this year, which would be a little hectic I think,” Hailey told WSJ.
‘Something happens to women when you get married. Everyone assumes it’s like this: “First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes baby,” Justin Bieber’s wife explained.
‘Well, what about the things I want to achieve in my business? I think I had it deep in my head that I wanted to have kids right away and that I was going to have kids super, super young. Then I turned 25 and I thought: I’m still super, super young!’
Hailey emphasized that behind closed doors, she and Justin are “two very normal people who just have non-normal lifestyles and careers.”
Not only is she celebrating her and Justin’s anniversary in Japan, but Hailey was also there to attend the opening of Tiffany & Co’s store in Tokyo.
She appeared on the red carpet on Monday evening in a glamorous black dress, alongside actresses Florence Pugh and Anya Taylor-Joy.
