Ellie Goulding is married! Ellie tied the knot with longtime partner Caspar Jopling at York Minster in front of friends and family on Saturday, Aug. 31. The pair announced their engagement [1] back in August 2018 the old-fashioned way, via an announcement in The Times newspaper [2].
The guest list was a who's who of British celebrities, with Sienna Miller [3] and Orlando Bloom [4] (plus fiancée Katy Perry [5]) in attendance. Perhaps most notably, though, was the strong British royal contingent, with the presence of Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie along with their mother Sarah Ferguson; additionally, Jack Brooksbank, Princess Eugenie's husband, was pictured among the groomsmen [6], according to Hello! magazine.
The bride arrived in a vintage Volkswagen camper van decked out with ribbon and white flowers. She stunned in a silk double crêpe Chloé gown that was designed by Natacha Ramsay-Levi. The bespoke dress, which featured a high-neck and long sleeves and took more than 640 hours to make, was hand embroidered with White Roses of York and delicately embellished with white glass beads. The groom also kept it traditional in a black morning suit with pale grey waistcoat and trousers, and a royal-blue tie.
The "Love Me Like You Do" singer has been dating Caspar, an art dealer and former Eton College student, since early 2017. Caspar has shared photos of Goulding on his Instagram, and his photography skills are nearly as adorable as his captions [7]. Congratulations to the happy couple!
