Former Celtic ace Ryan Christie got married to long-term love Georgie Bell
And newly released pics from the glitzy bash show the couple couldn't hide their delight as they posed for pics with Ryan's sister Paige, 27.
The Georgian house at the grand Somerley Estate in Hampshire served as a filming location for then Prince Charles's country retreat Highgrove House in the show.
And the location just outside Bournemouth was also used for scenes in the first season of racy period drama Bridgerton.
The wedding is thought to have taken place at the end of June.
But Georgie - who is co-director of a property empire with the Inverness-born midfielder - posted pictures of the big day on her Instagram page earlier this week.
The ace wore a kilt for the occasion. While Georgie stunned in a traditional white wedding dress for the ceremony, which pictures show was held outdoors in front of friends and family.
Posting the snaps, she said: 'An assortment of random wedding chaos, impossible to file in order thanks to high levels of excitement.'
One pal said: 'Congratulations gorgeous. Amazing pics. You're such a beautiful bride.'
A picture was posted of the pair by relative Paige Christie, who said: 'The most amazing weekend. So lucky and grateful to have you guys as my family.'
Laura Taylor, wife of former Celtic player and Scotland international, Greg Taylor, revealed pictures from the event on her Instagram.

She added: 'The Christies. A beautiful Scottish weekend in sunny Bourney.'
A snap shows the happy couple in a group shot with numerous men in kilts, including Greg, 27, and Christie's pal and fellow Scotland international Stuart Armstrong, 33.
Kris Ajer, 27, of Brentford and ex-Rangers and Aberdeen star Scott Wright, 27, of Birmingham City, also wore the traditional garb.
Hamilton Accies midfielder Charlie Telfer, 30, who played alongside Armstrong at Dundee United also posed up with the happy couple.
The pair, who have two-year-old son Leo, got engaged in January 2022.
At the time talented artist Georgie, of Tomatin, Inverness-shire, shared the happy news on Instagram with a series of tearful snaps, and a message that read:
She wrote: 'I can't imagine my life without you, and now I don't have to. I love you beyond words.'
Christie was English Premier League club Bournemouth's player of the season.

David and Romeo Beckham look troubled as family rift reaches new level
While Sir David Beckham is yet to comment publicly on the rumoured rift in his family, his facial expressions said a thousand words in his latest public appearance. The England football legend, who was recently awarded a knighthood, has been a hot topic of gossip for months due to an alleged feud with eldest son Brooklyn Beckham and his wife, Nicola Peltz. Eyebrows were raised when Brooklyn, 26, and Nicola, 30, failed to attend Sir David's 50th birthday bash, and ever since, there's been plenty of speculation about the nature of their relationship. This has also included Brooklyn's siblings, as while he was happy to pay tribute to sister Harper on her 14th birthday this week, it was claimed that he and Nicola had unfollowed both Romeo and Cruz. The whole thing is very messy, so you'd be forgiven for not being able to keep up, but it seems recent events could've been weighing on Sir David's mind as he attended a game on Saturday night. Joined by Romeo, the father-son duo looked deep in thought while watching Sir David's Inter Miami play against Nashville SC at Chase Stadium in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Photos captured Sir David and Romeo, 22, with stern expressions and furrowed brows, mimicking one another with their arms behind their backs while the action on the pitch intensified. Sitting in their seats later on, Sir David tucked into a snack, unable to take his eyes off the match. The Inter Miami president and co-owner looked typically dapper in a navy suit and tie combo, while Romeo somewhat resembled his famous father in his younger days with a bleached buzzcut and tattoos on full display. He also opted for more casual attire of a baggy Snoop Dogg T-shirt and green camouflage cargos, paired with a flashy Rolex watch. Sir David and Romeo's night out comes after reports that Brooklyn and Nicola had not only removed his brothers from their Instagram 'following' lists, but blocked them completely. However, sources close to the former photographer later claimed that he had done no such thing. 'Brooklyn had no idea until he read about it online,' said the insider. 'It's possible Romeo and Cruz blocked them, which would make it appear as him no longer following the brothers.' They added to The Sun: 'He and Nicola certainly didn't unfollow them or block them—they're as confused as anyone else. 'The first they heard about it was when it was being reported on.' Although Brooklyn's denial didn't seem to defuse any problems, as Romeo appeared to make another subtle dig on Insta on Friday night, just hours later. The model posted a screenshot of Justin Bieber's new song, Walking Away, adding the comment 'Yup' to suggest the lyrics hit close to home. In recent weeks, budding chef Brooklyn has made no secret of his attempts to create distance between himself and his parents. From snubbing Sir David's knighthood to failing to wish him a happy Father's Day, there have been several major milestones he's been silent on. In contrast, he was keen to wish Nicola's billionaire tycoon father, Nelson Peltz, a happy birthday last month, and has shared several lovey-dovey messages for Nicola, whom he married in 2022. One of those was a video of the lovebirds riding a motorbike. In his caption, Brooklyn vowed to 'always choose' his actress wife, proving where his loyalties lie. But while Brooklyn continues to face the wrath of social media for 'disrespecting' his mum and dad, sources have claimed the drama is having a big impact on him too. More Trending Speaking to Metro recently, one said: 'Brooklyn hasn't felt the same about his family for months. 'It's hard to see any improvement on the relationship between either side, even though Victoria and David are desperate for things to get better.' The insider claimed that Brooklyn's bday tribute for sister Harper may be somewhat of an 'olive branch,' although it remains to be seen if relations can heal going forward. 'When big family milestones approach, he often feels quite isolated over in Los Angeles, but he's keen to show that he loves his family deeply.' Got a story?
