Kym Marsh's daughter Emilie Cunliffe wore a very sentimental outfit for her wedding with Michael Hoszowskyj on 4 August.
The actress, 25, went wedding dress shopping with her famous mother in the lead-up to her big day, which took place at Merrydale Manor in Cheshire, but the inspiration for her dream gown may have come from much closer to home.
Accentuating her stunning figure, Emilie's gown featured a fitted silhouette with delicate spaghetti straps, a plunging neckline, a champagne underlay covered with white lace and a fishtail skirt. The dress bore similarities to Kym's previous wedding gown.
"We know an amazing seamstress called Sonya who works at Puure Bride, so I went in to see what they could do with my mum’s old wedding dress, because I had fallen in love with it," Emilie told HELLO!.
"We walked into the shop and my mum was like: 'Are you sure you want to wear mine? Look at all these amazing dresses.' So I tried a few styles and when I put this one on, I knew it was The One. I felt amazing on the day," she added.
"It was so special to have my mum with me. She cried her eyes out the first time she saw me in my dress," continued the-25-year-old, who shared her wedding album exclusively with us.
Kym also opened up about the mother-daughter bonding moment, adding: "Seeing her in her dress, veil, hair and make-up was the most incredible thing. She's the most beautiful girl I've ever seen."
Meanwhile, Kym was a very glamorous mother-of-the-bride in a coral pink dress with waist cut-outs and a floor-length skirt.
Emilie's stepdaughter Polly, seven, looked adorable in her pink tulle flower girl outfit, while her son Teddy, four, twinned with his father in a white jacket and black bow tie, alongside his fun ring bearer lanyard ID and briefcase.
Doting father Michael joked the kids "stole the show as usual," adding: "They're our world, so we wouldn’t have it any other way."
Emilie and Michael got engaged on her 24th birthday weekend in November 2021, and Kym gushed about her future son-in-law as she announced the happy news to fans.
"On Saturday my beautiful daughter @emilieecunliffe.x got engaged!! @mikeyhoz totally surprised her on her birthday weekend. Needless to say she said yes!!! I am beyond thrilled!
