PRINCESS Eugenie and her new husband Jack Brooksbank today left their fairy tale wedding in James Bond's Aston Martin.

The ninth-in-line to the throne married her long-term boyfriend in a romantic ceremony at St George's Chapel in front of 850 A-list guests.

And after their lavish ceremony, the pair left Windsor in a silver Aston Martin, which was originally made for the James Bond movie Spectre.

The bride was clearly surprised - saying "wow" and left open-mouthed when she spotted the luxury DB10 Aston Martin.

Eight models were made for the spy movie, with Jack's new father-in-law Prince Andrew joking "no pressure" as the couple drove off.

It was the final public show for the couple before they headed to their reception the at York family home, Royal Lodge in Windsor Great Park after their wedding was sealed with a kiss outside the chapel.
Insiders have since claimed Eugenie's divorced parents, Prince Andrew and Sarah "Fergie", will host "one hell of a party" to celebrate their daughter's wedding, the Mail Online reported.

The Royal Lodge is said to have a complete fairground set up on the grounds, with the celebrations expected to last into tomorrow as guests make the most of dodgem cars, food stalls and a coconut shy.

A source said: "There will be dodgems and funfair rides, coconut shies, lots of food stalls, loads of cocktails, bloody Marys for the hangovers and a festival vibe."

The bash - which will again welcome the couple's A-list guests - was paid for by the Queen and the Duke of York from their own funds.

The fun-filled reception comes after the groom himself was left tearful as he watched his beautiful bride walk down the aisle towards him in front of the 850 guests including the Queen and to socialites, singers and models.

Jack Brooksbank couldn't take his eyes off Princess Eugenie, appearing to tell her "you look perfect".

The 32-year-old appeared to be teary-eyed as he met the princess at the altar, with lip-readers saying he told the 28-year-old: "Oh... my heart... Oh break my heart".

The bride had stunned in a sweeping wedding dress, made by Peter Pilotto and Christopher De Vos of the British label Peter Pilotto, showing her scars from childhood back surgery.

Crowds cheered as the newlyweds shared a sweet kiss outside the chapel after the ceremony, surrounded by the bridal party including Princess Charlotte and Prince George.

The two eldest children of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge added some humour to the proceedings as crowds waited for the bride to arrive.

Prince George held his hands over his ears as trumpeters heralded the arrival of Eugenie, later appearing to bob up and down in time to the music.

Eugenie had arrived at the chapel with her dad Prince Andrew in the same Rolls Royce used by Kate Middleton for her 2011 wedding to Prince William.

It's the second royal wedding of the year for Windsor after Prince Harry and Meghan said "I Do" in May.

Cara Delevingne and Naomi Campbell were among the hundreds of stars to be invited to the ceremony.

The wedding was a mix of traditional and modern, with the couple's personal touches including Princess Beatrice performing a reading from F Scott Fitzgerald's The Great Gatsby.

The passage was a description of enigmatic Jay Gatsby’s smile and is said to capture both the theatrical quality of his character and his charisma.

The newlyweds also listened to a stunning rendition of Ave Maria by world famous opera singer Andrea Bocelli at the church after exchanging vows in front of the crowd of A-listers and the Queen.

Meghan Markle, stunning in a blue Givenchy outfit, sat by husband Prince Harry - but her navy coat was quickly labelled as "suspicious" by eagle-eyed viewers who speculated she could be pregnant.

The Duchess of Cambridge also indulged in a rare PDA moment as she held hands with husband Prince William, having struggled like her fellow guests to keep her dress under control due to the strong winds.

The Queen, accompanied by Prince Philip, wore an ice blue cashmere coat with large gold and diamond buttons and an ice blue and peach scalloped lame dress.

After the ceremony, the couple left Windsor Castle in a silver Aston Martin, driven by Mr Brooksbank.

But it wasn't all smooth sailing for the big day.

A page boy tripped up the stairs into the chapel as winds buffeted the arriving wedding party.

Thankfully the brave youngster Louis De Givenchy got straight back up and was able to walk into the chapel unhurt.

Charlotte also took a slight tumble as she struggled with the steps.

And groom Jack appeared nervous as all eyes turned on him as he tried to get the ring onto his new wife's finger.

Jack's best man Tom couldn't stop laughing as his brother struggled to fit the ring on his wife-to-be's finger.

Princess Eugenie was also giggling, but gave her new husband a helping hand by pushing the ring on herself.

The couple's Order of Service revealed Jack will not wear a ring.

Eugenie's wedding ring was made from a piece of Welsh gold given by the Queen.

The princess also wore the Greville Emerald Kokoshnik Tiara, made in 1919 in the fashionable "kokoshnik" style popularised in the Russian Imperial Court, which had also been been lent to her by the Queen.

Princess Eugenie also wore diamond and emerald drop ear-rings, a wedding gift from the groom, and satin peep-toe heels by Charlotte Olympia.

The wedding bouquet is made up of Lily of the Valley, Stephanotis pips, hints of baby blue thistles, white spray roses and trailing ivy.

It was created by Patrice Van Helden Oakes, the sister of floral designer Rob Van Helden.

The floral arrangement also contains sprigs of myrtle from Osborne House, as part of a regal tradition which can be traced back to Queen Victoria.

Mother of the bride Sarah, Duchess of York had appeared delighted as she arrived at the chapel with Princess Beatrice, the Maid of Honour.

"Fergie", who spent years as an outcast from the royal family following her split from Andrew, was cheered by crowds as she stepped out of a chauffeur-driven car.

The Duchess, dressed in bright green, embraced two crowd members before ascending the steps with Beatrice, stopping to give one final wave to another cheer from the assembled spectators.

And Kate's sister Pippa also turned heads in an emerald green dress - showing off her blossoming baby bump. 

THE DRESS: Who designed the stunning dress worn by Princess Eugenie?

Princess Eugenie requested her wedding dress be designed with a low back as a tribute to the hospital where she had a childhood scoliosis operation.

The dress, designed by by British-based Peter Pilotto and Christopher De Vos, features a neckline that folds around the shoulders to a low back that drapes into a flowing full length train, Buckingham Palace said.

The low back feature was specifically requested by Eugenie, who had surgery aged 12 to correct scoliosis, a spokesman added.

The princess has spoken of the importance of showing "people your scars" and is a patron of the Royal National Orthopaedic Hospital Appeal.

The fabric included a number of symbols that were meaningful to Eugenie as motifs.

The symbols were a Thistle for Scotland, acknowledging the couple's fondness for Balmoral, a Shamrock for Ireland as a nod to the Bride's Ferguson family, the York Rose and ivy representing the couple's home.

Peter Pilotto and Christopher De Vos reinterpreted these symbols in a garland of rope like motifs, woven into a jacquard of silk, cotton and viscose blend.

Well-dressed women were forced to hold onto their hats as gusts of wind swept this morning amid forecasters' warnings Windsor could be hit with rain today.

The guests included model Pixie Geldof, wearing a pink dress that billowed in the wind, as well as actress Liv Tyler, Demi Moore, and model Naomi Campbell, dazzling in a monochrome outfit.

Prince Harry's ex girlfriends Chelsy Davy and Cressida Bonas also made an appearance.

Robbie Williams - whose daughter was a flower girl - got a cheer from the crowds when he arrived in a limousine and waved back.

Singers James Blunt and Ellie Goulding also made an appearance - arriving at the wedding in the same coach.

Others to brave the strong winds to attend the wedding include comedian Jimmy Carr and wife Karoline Copping, as well as David Emanuel, who designed Princess Diana's wedding dress, wearing a dark suit over a white T-shirt.

Richard Bacon, who previously revealed how the royal bride supported him when he was in a coma, was also among the guests.

Conservative peer and Downton Abbey creator Julian Fellowes was also among those to flock to St George's Chapel, with many guests seen clutching gift bags with the couple's initials intertwined.

But last minute adjustments had to be made due to the wind, with staff seen fixing a fallen potted tree that was knocked over onto the West Steps of the venue.

Female guests in dresses were also left furiously trying to hold down their skirts as the wind swept through Windsor.

Robbie Williams' mother-in-law was also left staring forlornly across the road as her hat blew off.

The big day hasn't been without its controversy as Camilla Parker-Bowles missed the wedding and a petition launched over the astronomical £2million cost of the ceremony.

Dramatic aerial shots also showed the Long Walk in Windsor almost deserted for the wedding - a world away from Meghan and Harry's nuptials.

The famous feature was packed with royalists for Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's wedding in May.

But the debate didn't stop royal fans from turning out in force today, with some arriving on Thursday afternoon to bag a prime position.

Royal super-fan John Loughney, from London, said he was happy to be there to share the day with Princess Eugenie.

The 63-year-old has been in the crowds for the last two royal weddings and was also outside the hospital for the births of Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.

He said: "There's only two people who will be truly proud today and that's (Princess Eugenie's) mother and father. They'll be ever so proud to see their daughter married.

"Myself and all the royal fans wish them a very happy marriage."

Danielle Lilley, 33, and Rachel Bruce, 47, tutors from Eugenie's boarding house at Marlborough, said they were looking forward to seeing familiar faces.

Ms Bruce said: "We're really excited and hoping we might see some of her friends from college.

"We're thrilled to be here."

The wedding has been broadcast to fans on the BBC - but a subtitles mistake left viewers in stitches.

Police poured into Windsor to ensure the event is secure, with dozens of officers searching the open-top carriage procession route in advance. A blanket ban on drones was also put into place.

Photographer Alex Bramall was announced as the official wedding photographer this morning - having already snapped the royal for Harper's Bazaar US in 2016.

Mr Bramall said: “It is an honour and a privilege to be invited to photograph Princess Eugenie and Jack on this most special of days.

"I look forward with great excitement to capturing this significant occasion and wish them both a happy future together.”

Princess Eugenie reveals ‘it was love at first sight’ as she prepares to marry husband-to-be Jack Brooksbank

The couple yesterday revealed their excitement at tying the knot - admitting it was "love at first sight".

Princess Eugenie, 28, said she was nervous ahead of her big day - but said she couldn't wait to exchange vows with her boyfriend of seven years.

In an interview with Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford, who will anchor coverage of the royal wedding on ITV, the couple described the moment they met for the first time.

Brooksbank said: "We were skiing in a friend's place out in Switzerland, and [looking at Eugenie] I saw you first, didn't I? And we just stared at each other."

Brooksbank said: "We were skiing in a friend's place out in Switzerland, and [looking at Eugenie] I saw you first, didn't I? And we just stared at each other."

"I remember being like, 'I really, really like this guy, I really want him to like me too,' and then you gave me this huge windscreen wiper wave and that was it, right, he likes me."

Jack described Eugenie as a "bright shining light".

While Eugenie admitted the whole thing was "nerve-wracking and a bit scary" she added: "At the end of the day you get to marry the person you love... and you're going to be at the end of the aisle, and I'm going to be running towards you."

The couple also revealed that their siblings are good friends.

FLORAL DISPLAY: Wedding flowers a 'vibrant' display of autumn

The wedding flowers in St George's Chapel were chosen to reflect the "rich and vibrant tones of autumn", Buckingham Palace has revealed.

Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank chose floral designer Rob Van Helden to decorate the historic venue.

Foliage and flowering branches, sourced locally from Windsor Great Park - the site of the York family home - have been combined with roses, spray roses, hydrangeas, dahlias and berries.

The designs will also include Liquid Amber trees, also known as American sweet gum trees, which turn brilliant yellow, orange and red before they shed.

"The designs will reflect the rich and vibrant tones of autumn," a palace spokeswoman said.

Mr Van Helden said: "It has been the greatest privilege and honour to create the flowers for Princess Eugenie and Jack on their wedding day.

"Her Royal Highness has been very involved from the start and has been instrumental in the autumnal theme.

"The whole floral design team and I wish Princess Eugenie and Jack our heartfelt congratulations and we hope they have a magical wedding day."

One of London's top florists, Mr Van Helden was born and grew up in Holland, and moved to the capital 31 years ago.

He first started his floristry business from the back of his car.

Eugenie said of Bea: “She’s my big sissy — I’ve looked up to her my whole life.

“I’ve wanted to be her at times — we’ve fought over Converse trainers and who gets what, and you know, we’re best friends and I can’t think of anyone I’d want by my side more.”
