We’re loving the spectacular star style at Britain’s Got Talent presenter Ant McPartlin’s gorgeous nuptials to his fiancee Anne-Marie Corbett!
The pair tied the knot at St Michael’s Church in Heckfield in Hampshire before heading to a nearby hotel where they treated their guests to a lavish reception followed by spa treatments the following day.
Among the guests at the sumptuous three-day wedding were Ant’s showbiz partner Declan Donnelly, This Morning host Phillip Schofield, TV presenter Patrick Kielty and Cat Deeley, former Chelsea footballer Frank Lampard and TV presenter Christine Lampard, as well as Dermot O’Leary, Alesha Dixon and David Walliams.
Anne-Marie (43), who previously worked as Ant’s personal assistant, looked stunning in her bespoke £15,000 one-shouldered Suzanne Neville gown which featured a detailed bodice and full skirt, teamed with a traditional veil.

She arrived at the church in style in a £300,000 Rolls Royce Cullinan, carrying a pretty bouquet of white and lilac roses, which had a picture of her late father attached to it.
The lilac theme was carried on in the bridesmaids dresses, worn by Anne-Marie’s teen daughters Poppy and Daisy from her previous marriage to Scott Corbett, while Dec’s two-year-old daughter Isla took part in the ceremony as a flower girl.

The 45-year-old groom wore black tie, matching with best man Dec, and the pair posed for the cameras outside the church.
It’s understood that the happy couple had initially been hoping to marry abroad, but decided to hold the ceremony in England because of the pandemic.
The total cost of the wedding has been estimated at around £500,000, with Ant said to have splashed out £100,000 to treat his guests to a two-night stay at Heckfield Place hotel so that they could enjoy the three-day wedding to the full.
He treated his guests to a spa day after the wedding, including £125 reiki treatments and £180 full-body massages, as well as £100 manicures and pedicures.

Ant and Anne-Marie’s beloved dogs Harley, a Labrador, and maltipoos Milo and Bumble, were unable to be present on the big day but were featured on the top of the wedding cake.
Among the celebrity guests who thronged into the church were David Walliams who attended with former glamour model Keeley Hazell, Saturday Night Takeaway’s Stephen Mulhern and comedian and presenter Patrick Kielty and his wife Cat Deeley.

The couple shared their first dance to a Coldplay medley, followed by performances by Abba tribute band Bjorn Again and barbershop quartet The Herringbone Cocktail Club.
After the reception Ant and Anne-Marie jetted off on a ‘familymoon’ with the bride’s two daughters.
Ant has described Ann-Marie as his ‘rock’ because of how she supported him through his 2018 drink-driving arrest and his time in rehab.
The pair have been in a relationship since 2018, getting together following McPartlin’s separation from his wife Lisa Armstrong earlier that year.
