Fleur, 31, and Marcel have been together for nine years.
She told Hello! magazine: “It was the best day of my life, filled with so much love. A dream. I’m just excited to call Marcel my husband. Our wedding was perfect.
“The weather was amazing, the skies were so clear, every single guest was invested in the day and all got on with each other. The love in the congregation was overwhelming. I’ll never forget the feeling. I took in every single second of it.”
In May she referenced her upcoming nuptials, posting on Instagram: “Here comes the bride, all dressed in… I can’t wait to walk down the aisle this year and marry my best friend in front of all our special people!”
Marcel told the magazine of the moment he saw Fleur in her J’Aton Couture gown, saying he felt like the “luckiest man in the universe, not just the world”.
He added: “When I saw her walking down the aisle, the emotions took over and for the first time ever it felt real. That was the moment I realised Fleur, my best friend, was going to be my wife. She looked so beautiful, I just want to do it all over again.”
Guests were surprised with an impromptu performance by Fleur, who was the 2014 runner-up on ITV’s The X Factor.
She said the DJ put her song ‘Sax’ on and handed her the microphone, adding that she “had a feeling that was going to happen”.
She also sang a rendition of Alicia Keys’ If I Ain’t Got You for her husband, Hello! reported.
