Exclusive photographs of Chloe Goodman’s wedding ceremony… with out sister Lauryn

Beaming with happiness, reality TV star Chloe Goodman poses for her first pictures as a married woman.

Dressed in her ‘perfect’ custom-made £10,000 Riki Dalal gown, she basks in the picturesque Portuguese sunshine next to her new husband, Rotherham footballer Grant Hall.

It was the dream start to matrimonial bliss, surrounded by their closest friends, family and teammates from Grant’s career as a midfielder playing for sides including QPR, Brighton and Hove Albion, and Birmingham City.

With the weather perfect in the upmarket Quinta do Lago resort in the Algarve; the bride and bridesmaids all stunning in elegant, bespoke gowns; and guests decked out in classic black tie, the couple and the wedding party looked every inch a match made in heaven, too.

The venue was set in acres of countryside and perfectly manicured golf courses. The day began with Chloe, 31, arm-in-arm with her proud property developer father as she walked down the aisle to tie the knot. Just a few steps behind her was her younger sister Amelia, her chief bridesmaid, who was dressed in a blue, floor-length frock. Their mother was also in attendance.

There to watch Mummy and Daddy say ‘I do’ were Chloe and Grant’s children, Isla, four, and Hudson, two.

The nuptials, which prompted tears among the wedding party – including from Chloe’s grandparents John, 85, and Carol, 83 – took place in the sunshine. Minutes later, as the happy couple embraced in their first kiss as man and wife, the party could really get started.

The lavish wedding breakfast was held at a nearby restaurant, but the bride and groom decided against the traditional cake and instead went for a flowing champagne tower.

‘Who wants cake, really?’ asked the bride. ‘We know you’d all rather have champagne,’ she laughed as she encouraged fellow guests to join her in taking a sip of fizz.

After the speeches, which were led by Chloe’s beloved father, the party hit the dancefloor where they boogied into the night. Among those to join in were some of Grant’s fellow footballer friends and their partners.

There was, of course, one notable absentee – Chloe’s big sister Lauryn, 33. Her children, son Kairo, four, and her baby daughter, were also not there to watch their auntie get married and instead holidayed five miles away.

It was definitely a wedding fit for a footballer and his new wife. Decorations were provided by local company Luxe Events, while the stunning flowers were from Algarve’s finest florist, Ely Flowers.

Following the wedding, the new Mr and Mrs Hall made the most of their wedding location and spent several days with their family and friends before they enjoyed some precious time together with their two children in the Algarve.

They will take their honeymoon at a later date.

Speaking of the wedding, Chloe says: ‘It was the most special day I could have wished for. It was absolutely perfect.’
