Matt Richardson married stunning model Sam Rollinson on Saturday, less than a year after his romantic proposal.
The comedian and former X Factor host, 34, said ‘I do’ to his partner of ten years before hitting the dance floor to celebrate with their famous friends.
While Matt looked dapper in a classic suit, Sam dazzled in a vintage inspired lace gown embellished with metallic stars.
She forwent a traditional veil, opting instead for a bejewelled headband and completed the look with a pair of chic heels.
The loved-up couple smooched during their first dance, watched on by the likes of Vicky Pattison, Big Brother’s Kate Lawler and comedian Rosie Jones.
Taking to his Instagram Stories Matt joked: ‘Well, getting married is so much fun I think I’ll have to do it again some day’.

Guests shared snaps from the big day with Vicky looking stunning in semi-sheer burgundy dress alongside husband Ercan Ramadan.
In her Instagram post Kate gushed: ‘Danced to cheesy music all night long but the highlight for me was Backstreet Boys. What a banger’.
‘So nice to see so many people I’ve not seen in ages. Thank you so much for inviting us to celebrate your special day guys, we love you! xx’.
Matt popped the question last year during a lavish trip to the Inverlochy Castle Hotel in Scotland with the couple toasting their engagement with champagne as the sun set over the beautiful Highland location.
Later showing off her sparkling engagement ring, Sam gushed: ‘Ten years of love, joy, laughter and adventure, @mattrichardson3 is now my finance.’
The stunner has walked the catwalk many times for high fashion brands like Stella McCartney, Louis Vuitton and Marc Jacobs.
Matt was previously the host of The X Factor spin-off, The Xtra Factor, with Caroline Flack, before she went onto host the main show with Olly Murs in 2015.
He landed a drivetime show on Virgin Radio and also launched a podcast with Busted’s Matt Willis, called When No One’s Watching.

It comes after Matt took a brutal swipe at some of the stars who took part in the same series of Celebrity Coach Trip as him in a blunt TikTok video.
He appeared on the celeb version of the Channel 4 programme in 2022.
The first ever series premiered of Coach Trip in 2005 and has gone on to air 18 regular series, and the celebrity version has had seven series since 2010.
Matt appeared on the show alongside Big Brother presenter Will Best, 40.
The show sees tour guide Brendan Sheerin, 66, take a group of famous faces on a coach tour and at the end of each day they have to vote a pair off.
Matt didn’t hold back as he opened up about his experience on social media and said: ‘I did do Coach Trip, Celebrity Coach Trip.
‘I don’t know if I loved that experience. I found it really hard work. Not because of the show, it was the other celebs. Not all of them, I will say.

‘There were some lovely people on, but there were some people who made it weird because they cared about the vote at the end of the day and would get annoyed if you voted for them even though they’d voted for you because they wanted to stay on the show even though you got paid the same.
‘No matter what. One person had said that if they won Coach Trip they were hoping to get the Love Island hosting job.
‘They were delusional and mad. I talk about it a lot in my stand-up special that’s coming out soon.’
Geordie Shore stars Sophie Kasaei and James Tindale, Olympian judoka Ashley McKenzie and the late actor Paul Danan, Love Island stars Finley Tapp and Paige Turley, The Valleys star Lateysha Grace and rapper Honey G, Honeyz stars Célena Cherry and Mariama Goodman took part.
They were joined by social media stars Jamel and Jamil Neffati, Gogglebox’s Tom Malone Jr and model Bryony Briscoe, RuPaul’s Drag Race UK stars Ginny Lemon and Sister Sister, Olympians Andrew Pozzi and Adam Gemili, singer Chesney Hawkes and Nancy Dell’Olio.
The series was won by Birds of a Feather actresses Linda Robson and Lesley Joseph.
A fan in the comments section was keen to know who he was talking about in the clip and asked: ‘Go on Matt, spill some names, you’ve gone this far.’
Matt replied: ‘Honey G and that awful woman from the valleys were dreadful, and the Olympian whose name escapes me.’
