Stacey Solomon's wedding to Joe Swash

Stacey Solomon married her long-term partner Joe Swash on Sunday 24 July 2022 in the garden of their Essex family home, after delaying their 2021 wedding plans in order to celebrate with their youngest daughter Rose, nine months.

In photos taken by bridal photographer Chelsea White, Stacey was every inch the beautiful bride in her gown from Verona Bridal, which boasted an exquisite corset top, chic chiffon off-the-shoulder straps and a sparkly fabric that caught the light of the sparklers as the couple enjoyed their first dance.

Ruth Langsford's wedding to Eamonn Holmes

Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes married at Hampshire hotel The Elvetham on 26 June 2010, in a ceremony covered exclusively by HELLO! magazine. For her big day, Ruth looked divine in a sumptuous creation, by Italian designer Angelina Colarusso. The pearl-coloured silk taffeta confection was sensuously sculpted and delicately adorned with bursts of tiny Swarovski crystals.

And Eamonn couldn’t help but get emotional when he first saw his bride. "I had to bite my lip to stop myself from crying," he told HELLO!. "I couldn't look Ruth in the eye, because I knew I wouldn't be able to control the tears." The bride was equally emotional. "As I walked in, I saw all these faces turned towards me, smiling, and then I looked over at Eamonn and I could see in his eyes that he was close to tears," she shared.

Jane Moore's wedding to Gary Farrow

Before their shock split announcement in December last year, Jane posted a very rare photo from her big day to celebrate her 18th wedding anniversary with her husband Gary in May 2020. The image showed off her wedding dress, which featured a cowl neckline and long sheer sleeves. The journalist wore a fine chain necklace, and appeared to have a headband or tiara on top of her sleek bob.

Jane Moore slipped into her wedding dress once again for a Loose Women wedding special – and she looked just as phenomenal as she did on her big day back in 2002, when she said 'I do' at London's Claridge's Hotel in front of guests such as Elton John, Jonathan Ross, Barbara Windsor, Frank Skinner and Anthea Turner.

Christine Lampard's wedding to Frank Lampard

After a six-year relationship, Christine Bleakley and Frank Lampard tied the knot on 20 December 2015. Their ceremony took place at St Paul’s Church in Knightsbridge before a reception at private members’ club The Arts Club.

Christine made a beautiful bride in a long-sleeved gown by Suzanne Neville with lace long sleeves, a low V-neck and a fishtail skirt. Meanwhile, her groom looked dapper in a black tuxedo.

Penny Lancaster's wedding to Rod Stewart

Loose Women panellist Penny has married husband Rod Stewart not once, but twice! The couple renewed their wedding vows in July 2017 to celebrate their tenth anniversary. The vow renewal ceremony, covered exclusively by HELLO! magazine, took place in the grounds of their Essex home, while their first wedding was held in a medieval monastery in Portofino, Italy.

"Being able to reflect on those ten years and say those words to one another and still know we mean them is important," Penny told HELLO!. "This felt more special. You get married with the hope that you’ll be together. When we renewed our vows, we said them not with just hope but with a reassurance. Along with hope, there is also faith, love and bringing all the family together."

Penny first married Rod in Portofino, Italy, in June 2007. The couple shared their wedding album exclusively with HELLO! magazine, with photos that showed the newlyweds enjoying the celebrations with their toddler son Alastair, and Penny’s beautiful strapless lace gown.
