Sophie Dahl - Celebrity News - Marie Claire

Lovebirds Sophie Dahl and Jamie Cullum tied the knot in an intimate ceremony over the weekend.

The pair - who got engaged in April last year - wed in front of close friends and family at a romantic hotel near Lyndhurst in the New Forest.

The happy couple hired out all 29 rooms at the beautiful country house venue for family and friends to stay, and made it official with a short, civil ceremony.

The beautiful bride chose a tumbling ivory, Versace-style dress for her fairytale winter wedding.

‘It was a very beautiful occasion for close family and friends,' the blushing bride's godmother told Hello! magazine. ‘Sophie looked absolutely fantastic.'

Lucky Jamie recently spoke of the time he first met the future Mrs Cullum, who despite being several inches taller fell head over heels for the jazz musician.

‘We hit it off immediately. I think we knew emotionally that we would become good friends,' he said.

‘But someone like me never entertains the idea of going after someone like her, so I didn't go for it. I couldn't assume she would be interested in me...But it worked! Lucky old me - it turned out to be much more.'

Congratulations to the happy couple!

I'm really pleased for them... glad they tied the knot and didn't listen to what anyone else had to say. Who cares if they are different heights?!

Congrats to Sophie and Jamie on tying the conjugal knot. I am a Jamie Cullum fan. As he sang: "What a difference a [wedding] day made..."...but I hope Jamie and Sophie don't change too much nonetheless,because they are a fine couple as they are.
