Mel B marries in second ceremony in Morocco – and her scarlet strapless dress is incredible

Mel looked incredible in a red pearl-adorned strapless gown with a split in the skirt by Justin Alexander. She also wore strappy heels while her new husband donned a white jacket and black bow tie.

“We got married!!! Again! A wedding so good we keep the celebration going with our closest and dearest in our fav place at @selmanmarrakech we had the time of our lives!!,” Mel captioned the post.

HELLO! understands that the Moroccan celebration of their union, which officially took place on 5 July, took place from 1 to 3 August and featured a dinner on Friday, followed by a ‘spiritual ceremony’ conducted outside under the (super hot) sun before dinner and dancing on Saturday. 

Sunday marked the third day of the celebration, with a wedding brunch for attendees to offer a final toast to the happy couple. Despite fellow Spice Girl Emma Bunton’s attendance at Mel’s London do, former bandmate Melanie Chisholm (Mel C) was the only Spice Girl in attendance at the Moroccan version.

“What a weekend! So happy we got to share it with you,” Mel C wrote on social media.

“She’s iconic, powerful, and radiant – and this dress had to be worthy of that,” Josephine Scott said of Mel’s dress afterward. 

“Every detail was chosen to honour her strength and sensuality, while celebrating the woman and the love story beneath the girl power.”

“It was like a royal wedding as there were so many people waiting outside, and it was all very warm, very establishment, very traditional; there is an aspect of Melanie that is very traditional,” a source told HELLO!.

After officially tying the knot, Mel and Rory led the guests, who were transported by vintage London buses, to the reception hosted at the Shangri-La hotel inside the Shard.
