Presenting Mr and Mrs Crouch: Stunning bride Abbey Clancy and her new husband Peter Crouch pose after their marriage ceremony in Stapleford Park in Leicester
As one of the highest profile footballer-WAG couples in the UK, they could have commanded a seven-figure sum for an exclusive magazine deal.
But Peter Crouch and Abbey Clancy made a refreshing statement today by happily posing for assorted photographers as they married in Leicestershire.
Looking stunning in a white strapless Giles Deacon gown, the Liverpudlian model, 25, beamed as she gazed at her new husband, 30, in the grounds of the four-star Stapleford Park hotel.

And despite the height difference between the two, it looked liked they had found a sloping pavement to pose on, giving 5ft 9in Clancy a slight boost to reach her 6ft 7in groom for a passionate kiss.
The bride, who gave birth to her first child just three months ago, showed off her size 6 figure in a white lace corset gown with a tiered silk skirt which she teamed with droplet earrings and loose tousled wavy hair.
She steered away traditional romantic bridal make-up, instead opting for dramatic smoky eyes and vampy red nail varnish.

The Tottenham Hotspurs striker looked dapper in a black suit and waistcoat with a white tie and white rose on his lapel to match his bride's bouquet.
The couple married this afternoon at the Church Of St Mary Magdalene, in the 500-acre grounds of the luxury country house hotel and sporting estate, which includes a golf course and a spa.

Following the church service, the newlyweds headed to the Orangery at the hotel for a lavish wedding reception.
After a slap-up meal, the couple are rumoured to have laid on an evening jam-packed with entertainment, including a live band, magician and karaoke.
Having been a singer with short-lived band Genie Queen when she was a teenager, Clancy will hopefully belt out a song or two for 120 wedding guests.

And no doubt the guests will be calling for the groom to perform his signature dance move, 'the robot'.
Among the wedding guests were the couple's three-month-old daughter Sophia Ruby, Abbey's parents Karen and Geoffrey and her two siblings, including brother Sean Clancy, who plays for Fleetword Town F.C, and little sister Elle.
Joining the groom were his father Bruce, mother Jayne and his younger sister Sarah.

Although notably absent from the wedding, fellow WAG Coleen Rooney sent her congratulations to the couple via Twitter.
She wrote: 'Congratulations Abbey and Peter on your wedding day!!! Look gorgeous x x.'
Their nuptials comes after the pair are rumoured to have signed a pre-nuptial agreement to protect Crouch's £7million fortune.
The couple recently returned from a pre-wedding holiday in Sardinia, where Crouch popped the question in 2009.

The couple's six year romance hasn't been the most straightforward.
After a few months of dating in 2006, Crouch announced during the European cup in Germany he had ended their short romance following drug allegations concerning Clancy.
At the time, Crouch released a statement through his lawyer saying: 'Whilst I do not ordinarily comment upon matters relating to my private life, I have read with dismay various recently articles and reports about my "relationship" with Abbey Clancy.

'In light of this, I wish to make the situation absolutely clear: Abbey and I were in the very early stages of a relationship which, for a number of reasons, I decided a few weeks ago to end, and I accordingly informed Abbey of my decision.'
But it wasn't long before they were back together, before announcing their engagement in summer 2009.

However, their relationship was rocked by allegations last year Crouch paid prostitute Monica Mint for sex during a friend's stag weekend in Madrid.
But it appeared they quickly got things back on track and Crouch announced Clancy's pregnancy last September.
