Sophie, 30, pulled her hair into a thick bun and fastened her locks in place with a bejewelled hairpiece. She topped off her traditional look with a flowing veil and a bouquet of white roses and flowers.

According to multiple reports, Sophie and Graeme have postponed their honeymoon until the actress' role in the Gloved Hand Killer storyline is over.
This time last year, the pretty brunette opened up to the Express about her wedding day look, saying that she wanted a "classic and vintage" dress. She also revealed that her favourite piece of jewellery was her engagement ring.
"Years ago I told my best friend that I wanted an Edwardian daisy ring when I got engaged," said Sophie. "Graeme found out and spent months tracking one down, bless him."
