Mel B looked incredible as she kissed new husband Rory McPhee at St Paul's Cathedral today.
The Spice Girl, 50, stunned in a gown adorned with dazzling pearl detail around the collar and sleeves and a long flowing veil as she stepped out of the iconic venue in the capital following the ceremony.
Meanwhile Rory, 37, looked dapper in a tradition Scottish kilt as he kissed his new wife on the steps of the Cathedral.
The newlyweds then beamed as they headed down the steps and off to their reception in a horse-drawn white carriage, while their guests were transported in tradition red Route master double decker buses.
The couple shared a sweet kiss in the back of the carriage as they enjoyed their first moments as man and wife.
Ahead of the ceremony, fellow Spice Girl Emma Bunton led the star-studded arrivals, and was the only Spice Girl spotted in attendance, bar the bride herself.
Baby Spice, 49, wore a pale pink frock and matching hat as she rocked up with husband Jade Jones and son Beau, 17.
She finished off her summery look with glittering silver high heels.
Broadcaster Gabby Roslin was also seen en route to the London landmark in a taupe-coloured suit jacket and hat.
Danielle Brown, sister of bride Mel, flashed a huge smile as she arrived.
She wore a pretty blue floral dress with a matching fascinator, wrapping up from the summer chill with a grey cardigan.
She finished off her look with nude heels and looked elated as she was joined by her family.
Model Daisy Lowe looked sensational as she arrived in a black lace gown.
She accessorised her semi sheer gown with brown wedge heels and tied her hair in an up-do.
Meanwhile, music manager Simon Fuller was in high spirits as he arrived for the cameras outside.
TV favourites Angellica Bell and Alan Carr made a joint appearance as they posed for pictures side-by-side.
Double-decker buses were pictured arriving to swoop the wedding guests off to $58,000 postnuptial celebrations at The Shard, for Mel and Rory's swanky reception.
The buses displayed 'Melanie and Rory, just married' on them, and featured florals attached to the front.
It comes after it was revealed that 51-year-old Victoria Beckham wouldn't be attending the nuptials.
But making sure that Mel felt the love, she shared an Instagram tribute post ahead of her big day with Rory.
Posh Spice took to her Instagram stories to share a stunning snap of her and her bandmate looking all glammed up.
She added the sweet caption: 'Sending love to you @officialmelb!
'@rorymcphee is a very lucky man! xx.'
Victoria, as well as fellow bandmate Geri, weren't at the ceremony.
The MailOnline originally told how Victoria would be out of the country and therefore would not be present to watch Mel walk down the aisle.
A source said: 'Victoria has long standing plans out of the country and she simply can't be there.
'She adores Mel, they get on really well despite their paths going in opposite directions. It's a real shame.
'There is no issue between them, they haven't fallen out. It's just one of those things.'
Meanwhile Geri was said to be absent because of her tense relationship with Mel.
The two women had a big falling out when Mel B revealed that she had an intimate relationship with Geri when the band was starting out.
Mel made the confession while she was being interviewed for Piers Morgan's Life Stories in 2019.
Geri was stunned and upset by Mel's admission, and even more saddened when Mel allegedly did not issue an apology.
