Inside Mel B’s Celebrity Wedding: Tube Ride, Party Bus, and Adorable Ring Bearer

Despite her iconic party girl image, Mel B’s nuptials to hair stylist Rory Mcphee was a low-key affair, with guests said to have headed home at 7pm. 

But Celebrity Big Brother star Angellica Bell has given a glimpse into what really went on, from a tube ride to St Paul’s to a boozy party bus. 

The day kicked off with a ceremony held at the iconic St Paul’s cathedral, with many guests making their way there on the London Underground’s boiling hot Central line. 

Among the celebs on the guest list for the star-studded wedding were Mel B’s fellow Spice Girl Emma Bunton and comedians Alan Carr, Katherine Ryan and Tom Allen.

And her beloved Yorkshire Terrier pup Cookie served a very important role at the nuptials as the ring bearer. 

After the ceremony, guests jumped onto a boozy party bus to take them to the lavish Shangri-La hotel at The Shard.

The champagne was flowing as the wedding reception kicked off and Mel B’s pals danced the night away, with Angellica sharing a clip of the moment she tossed her bouquet into the crowd.     

Angellica captioned the clip: ‘A joyous occasion celebrating the marriage of @melb and @rorymcphee – thank you for letting us share the day with you. ❤️

‘Shout out to London Transport for getting us to @stpaulscathedrallondon …..(laughed with passengers on the central line)….the guys who ran the party bus, the fantastic hospitality @shangrilalondon and of course Cookie the Ring Bearer who was too cute!’

The Spice Girl, 50, who has previously boasted of late night booze-fuelled sex and taking cocaine six times a day, held her third nuptials in London – tying the knot with hairstylist Rory McPhee, 37.

But after the lavish ceremony at St Paul’s Cathedral, including a horse and carriage, she took pals and family to a bar at The Shard skyscraper for a bash which many expected to rage well into the early hours.

The wedding party arrived at the reception at 4.30pm, however most of Mel’s guests had headed for home by 7pm, with many having already changed into casual clothing following just over two hours of socialising.

As one guest put it: ‘I’d sort of thought for Scary Spice it would be a massive late night party with all the usual showbiz excess but it was the total opposite – it was actually rather low key.

‘Perhaps she’s grown up a lot in the last few years and settled down. It was all a long way from how she used to be.’

Pregnant Katherine Ryan was among the stars on the exclusive guest list, joined by her partner Bobby Kootstra

Mel’s children, Phoenix, 26, and Angel, 18, spent much of the festivities stood outside the hotel entrance smoking rolled up cigarettes – with security even moving them away from the well-heeled venue to avoid upsetting other residents and visitors.

The news of Mel’s subdued celebrations comes after it was previously reported that she and her new husband were expected to throw a huge ‘party in the sky’ amid their £28,000 lavish celebrations at The Shard. 

At the Shangri-La venue inside the building, friends and family were expected to  dance into the small hours as the ‘party of the century’ had been promised by the bride and groom.

One source involved in the wedding said: ‘It is going to be huge, the Shard is the most fantastic venue with unforgettable views so it will make for the most memorable event.

‘It is conveniently close to St Paul’s too, it’s third time lucky for Mel so she is going to go all out and celebrate. 

‘The Shard says that brides and grooms can ‘celebrate their special day in the clouds with enchanting London views, your special day will be as breathtaking as your love story’ and that is exactly what Mel wants.’ 

However, there’s more celebrating to come for the happy couple as they’re set to host a second wedding in Morocco, which has been described as ‘informal and sexy’.

The second nuptials will be offer her Spice Girls bandmates a second chance to attend her wedding celebrations after only Emma Bunton attended the big day at St Paul’s Cathedral on Saturday.

Mel C, 51, and Victoria Beckham, 51, both paid tribute to the bride and groom after they were forced to miss the wedding. However Geri Halliwell has so far failed to acknowledge the star-studded day.

Geri will be given the chance to extend an olive branch to Mel if she attends the North African ceremony – which holds a significance for the girl band. 

In 2015, the Spice Girls had a mini reunion in Morocco when they jetted there to celebrate David Beckham’s 40th birthday. 

Sporty, Posh, Baby and Ginger looked in great spirits as they posed for snaps at the event – but ironically – this time Mel B was the only Spice Girl not in attendance. 

Instead, Eva Longoria filled in for Scary – joking ‘I’m the new Spice Girl! #LatinaSpice’.

Now, there will be chance to get a snap of the full lineup in Morocco if they attend Mel’s second wedding in the summer – which she has described as ‘more informal, sexy and beautiful’. 

Mel B told The Sun of her plans for a second wedding to Rory later this summer and said she’d already splashed out on a gown to wear. 

‘In one incredible afternoon I found two perfect dresses. One beautiful classic dress by Josephine Scott, a British designer, and one stunning dramatic dress by a US designer, Justin Alexander’.

The Spice Girls could finally be set for a reunion at Mel B’s second wedding, which MailOnline can exclusively reveal will be held in Morocco (Mel and Rory McPhee at their London wedding on Saturday)  

While Victoria Beckham and Mel C were quick to apologise to Mel for missing the ceremony – Geri Halliwell-Horner has remained tight-lipped on the matter amid reports of differences

Now, Geri will be given the chance to extend an olive branch to Mel if she attends the North African ceremony – which holds a significance for the girl band (pictured in 1996) 

Guests including Alan Carr and Leigh Francis were quick to offer their congratulations, while fellow bandmate Geri remained silent.

The pair have a tempestuous relationship and at times have struggled to be in the same room without there being animosity. 

Geri continued to snub Mel B on Sunday after her lavish wedding weekend – while the likes of Heidi Klum, Paloma Faith and Kerry Katona led the stars sending the Spice Girl congratulatory messages following the ceremony.

However other Spice Girl Victoria was quick to comment under Mel’s post saying: ‘Congratulations!!!!! We hope you had an amazing day!!!! X kisses xxxxxxxxc.’
