Brat star Charli XCX confirms marriage to The 1975 drummer George Daniel
The TikTok read: 'When George isn't crying when he sees me walking down the aisle.'
Charli confirmed in the caption that 'luckily' the 35-year-old drummer did cry.
In a separate post captioned 'bridal party energy' Daniel could be seen wearing his wife's veil, while The Dare, who produced Charli's track Guess and whose real name is Harrison Smith, could also be seen at the party.
The wedding reportedly took place at Hackney Town Hall in London on Saturday, with the pair being spotted taking pictures with friends and family outside the venue, on social media.
The pair first shared photos of their engagement in 2023, and have worked together on a number of occasions collaborating on Charli track Spinning, before Daniel was credited as a co-producer and co-writer on two songs on Brat.
Daniel has also performed the viral 'Apple dance' at one of his wife's London shows.
Following the release of the Brat album, Charli's infectious electronic-pop tracks soared up the charts and inspired a trend, with fans embracing the 'Brat summer' cultural movement.
The accolades followed, and in March she dominated the Brit Awards, winning five categories including songwriter of the year.
She also secured album of the year, artist of the year, dance act, and song of the year for a version of her track Guess featuring Billie Eilish.
In February she picked up three awards at the Grammys and she was named songwriter of the year at The Ivors in May.
She recently performed at this year's Glastonbury Festival and at her own day festival in London's Victoria Park.
Daniel's band The 1975 are completed by singer Matty Healy, guitarist Adam Hann, and bass player Ross MacDonald, they are best known for tracks such as Chocolate, Love Me and The Sound.
The drummer has also launched an electronic solo career, releasing his first solo song Screen Cleaner in 2024.

Charli XCX defies bridal style with eye-wateringly expensive wedding ring
Pop superstar Charli XCX and The 1975's George Daniel became husband and wife in an intimate London wedding ceremony over the weekend - where the Von Dutch singer stunned with her bridal style Charlotte Aitchison is now Mrs George Daniel after tying-the-knot in an intimate ceremony in London on Saturday. The 32-year-old pop sensation, better known by her stage name Charli XCX, and The 1975 drummer, 35, have been an item since 2022. And on Saturday they swapped vows at Hackney Town Hall in front of their parents and a small crowd of close friends and loved ones. Photographs from the wedding day were splashed online - showing Charli and George beaming on the steps of the town hall where they married. Fans fawned over chart-topping star Charli's cream coloured bridal gown - which wrapped around her body and was matched with a pristine white veil. Posing on the steps of the hall, Charli exuded an element of cool as she adorned shared and clasped the hand of her rock star husband. Fans looking closely at her hand, however, will have noticed the dazzling rings that the Good Ones singer was sporting on her wedding finger. And, indeed, it would seem the star is carrying an impressive amount of bling on her finger - which one jewellery expert has valued at around £14,000. Laura Taylor, engagement ring specialist at Lorel Diamonds, said of the engagement ring: 'Charli's engagement ring is a classic design that lets the diamond do all the talking, featuring a 1-carat round brilliant solitaire, set on a platinum band. 'Round brilliants are still the most popular engagement cut because of how much light they reflect from every angle, giving them the trademark diamond sparkle. If the stone is natural and of excellent colour and clarity, I'd estimate it to be worth around £12,000 to £15,000 (around $16,000 to $20,000). 'George made the perfect choice with this ring because it works with any style and will never date. Even though Charli's known for pushing boundaries elsewhere, her engagement ring is something she'll be able to wear for life.' But it's not just Charli's engagement ring that dazzles - as her wedding band also stands out. Laura explains: 'Charli's wedding band is where she's really made it her own. "Rather than going for a traditional band to sit next to the solitaire, or even an eternity band like we're seeing with other celebrities, she's chosen something much bolder. 'From the photos, it looks like a wide ring with a twisted overlapping design, again in platinum to match her engagement ring. 'It's chunky and very different to the delicate bands you usually see paired with solitaires. We are starting to see more celebrities choosing bold rings this year, like Dua Lipa and her chunky engagement ring." The jewelry expert continued: "I'd estimate Charli's wedding band to be worth around £8,000 to £10,000 ($11,000 to $13,000), depending on the designer. 'The choice fits perfectly with the rest of her wedding look, as she wore a short white dress and sunglasses to her ceremony, skipping the usual formal bridal style. By pairing a classic engagement ring with a statement wedding band, Charli's showing you don't have to follow the usual rules."

Memories of my magical mix tape summer
Re your article ('I threw it in the bin with everything else he gave me': the mix tapes that defined our lives, 16 July), a boy called Richard (very handsome and funny, although endearingly modest and shy) pushed a cassette through my door during the summer of 1983 when we were both about 17 or 18 and 'just friends'. It featured the song You To Me Are Everything by The Real Thing. He made me laugh so much and I was definitely in love with him, but I think neither of us knew quite how to act on our feelings. The line 'To you I guess I'm just a clown who picks you up each time you're down' struck me at the time as being a reference to how much he made me laugh, but now I realise that it was probably a plea to take him seriously. I've just turned 60 and heard the song played recently. It stopped me in my tracks, transporting me right back to that gorgeous, magical summer of laughter and flirting that somehow never became anything more. And all the more magical for that I and address supplied To make a mix tape was an art form. There were only between 30 and 45 minutes each side, which required a good knowledge of the tracks to be put on to each one. Following that, how do you get the attention of the audience? Starting with a banger and trying to hold that for a couple more songs before easing off a bit. Towards the end of each side it was vital not to cut off any song but, if possible, to fade out. Even better if the tracks were finished just at the right moment before the tape ran out. A mix tape was a work of art, a work of love. You had to know your audience, your music and had to time it perfectly. I'm an avid lover of this lost art WagnerBoulogne-Billancourt, France Have an opinion on anything you've read in the Guardian today?

See 6 pictures from this year's Glasgow Pride march
Despite weather warnings, the country's largest city was awash with vibrant colour as attendees marched from Kelvingrove to the Barrowlands, where a free festival was held afterwards. Amongst the marchers was Still Game's Greg Hemphill, as well as hosts Bev Lyons, Miss Bella Houston, Lee Cammy and Garry King. (Image: Craig McConnell/Catching Light Photography)One TikTok user posted a clip of Hemphill waving a pride flag with an audio from an infamous episode of Still Game, where Isa says "Jack and Victor are gay, I saw it with my own eyes". Though Katie Price, one of the main acts who was set to perform at the event, pulled out at the last minute, entertainment included comedian Karen Dunbar, Eurovision acts including Subwoolfer and Miriana Conte, as well as dance musician Kelly Llorenna. (Image: Craig McConnell/Catching Light Photography) Amid a scaling back of transgender rights, attendees still marched with pride despite comments from Kate Barker, chief executive of LGB Alliance, who said Pride had "become hijacked by gender identity ideology". (Image: Craig McConnell/Catching Light Photography)With Pride having started as a political protest, that spirit was still alive in Glasgow as marchers showed solidarity with Palestinians (above). In May, a row broke out over Glasgow Pride working with organisations such as JP Morgan Chase, who have a presence in Israel. Campaign group No Pride In Genocide criticised the move whilst urging Glasgow Pride to express "solidarity" with the "most marginalised in our community, with a focus on trans rights". In response, the company highlighted that Saturday's event had "no sponsors", that it 'actively support[s]' trans people and said it would 'fight for their safety and rights". (Image: Craig McConnell/Catching Light Photography) This year's march had a number of high-profile corporate partners, including First Bus (pictured above), Tesco, Sky and Auchentoshan Distillery. (Image: Craig McConnell/Catching Light Photography) Amongst the marchers were several dogs bedecked in rainbow pet garments, ranging in size from dachshunds (above) to German shepherds (below).
