From following in her musical footsteps to starring together on the theatre stage, singer and actress Emilie Cunliffe has never failed to make her mum Kym Marsh proud.
So you would have been hard-pressed to find a more delighted mother of the bride than Kym when Emilie married her fiancé Michael Hoszowskyj.
"It was so special to have my mum with me. She cried her eyes out the first time she saw me in my dress," Emilie tells HELLO! as she and her new husband share their wedding album exclusively with us.
"I couldn't be any prouder," says Kym, who is starring alongside her daughter in The Official Take That Musical: Greatest Days. "I watched Emilie's first child be born and now she's my first child to marry. It's an emotional time: my baby girl is getting married!"
Indeed, emotions were high during the special day, whic took place on Friday 4 August at the beautiful country estate of Merrydale Manor in Cheshire.
KEY ROLE
The bride and groom's children played starring roles, with Emilie's seven-year-old stepdaughter Polly acting as chief flower girl, while son Teddy, four, was ring bearer complete with a briefcase and lanyard badge with the words: "Ring security. Agent Teddy."
"The kids stole the show as usual. They're our world, so we wouldn't have it any other way," says proud dad Michael, 33, who is known as Mikey.
Emilie, 25, had spent the previous night in one of Merrydale Manor's woodland eco-lodges, joined by her bridal party, including Kym, Polly, Emilie's 12-year-old sister Polly Lomas (daughter of Kym and actor Jamie) and Mikey's mum Julie.
Ahead of the ceremony at 2pm, Emilie changed into her stunning dress, which featured delicate lace with a figure-hugging silhouette and fishtail skirt.
