Rory McPhee and Melanie Brown MBE have once more wed. Just a few weeks ago, Rory, the icon of the Spice Girls and hair stylist, tied the knot at St. Paul’s Cathedral, which is renowned for its iconic ceremony.

However, the musician, 50, and Rory, 37, tied the knot in Morocco last night in a ceremony that was both glamorous and paid tribute to their fiery roots. Melanie’s three children from previous relationships, Rory’s family, her sister Danielle Brown, and Rory’s family were among the couple’s closest friends and family.

Also on the guest list was Melanie’s Spice Girls bandmate, Melanie C, who had been unable to attend the St Paul’s ceremony due to work commitments as part of her huge tour. Speaking of the weekend, Melanie C said: “What a weekend!” The singer previously said her second ceremony would be “sexy”. Now, the Mirror can reveal an exclusive insight into Melanie and Rory’s second wedding. It comes after Taylor Swift sparks engagement rumours as fans spot Travis Kelce’s lock screen.

In collaboration with Evelie and Justin Alexander, Mel’s stunning wedding dress glowed red crystals under the Marrakech sunshine. The Selman Hotel, their favorite location, where the couple wed once more, was where they tied the knot. Melanie chose something a little spicier, reflecting on her personal style, than her regal white gown from London.

Melanie’s wedding dress designer, Caroline Black from Evelie Bridal, previously guided the musician’s search for the ideal Josephine Scott dress for their UK wedding. She chose American designer Justin Alexander to reflect her current lifestyle because she works on America’s Got Talent in Leeds and the US.

Caroline, the owner of Evelie Bridal, said: “We focused on trying Justin Alexander gowns with a little extra sparkle for Mel’s Morocco wedding dress. Although it had to feel bold and easy to move in, Mell enjoyed the idea of a red dress.

We had a variety of dresses she tried on at Evelie South Kensington, and we exchanged ideas with Justin Alexander and his design team. The initial design developed after a number of discussions and sketches. Mell gave us honest feedback on both her preferences and her shortcomings, which led to a beautiful final product. It was a pleasure working with her and Justin Alexander to bring her vision to life because Mel had such a clear sense of what she wanted.

The jaw-dropping, sheer gown, which oozed glamour and flares, was created by Melanie and Caroline in collaboration with Creative Director Justin Warshaw and Chief of Design Terri Hilferty. The bodice and skirt have a mesmerizing floating effect thanks to hand-fitted red crystals and bulge beads, which completely transform the silhouette. Six artisans created the team, which took 850 hours to complete.

Red crystal detailing eventually dispersed across the corset of her dress, eventually dispersing along the sweetheart neckline. The asymmetrical waistline detailing also added a dimension. A daring side split, in true Mel B fashion, revealed her toned legs and a skirt of crystal beads that were dispersed along her.

The back also featured a lace-up corset and red ribbons, which helped her build a formidable physique before eventually erupting into a magical cathedral-length train. The Moroccan-inspired veil, which was custom-draped in mocha tulle and accented with red crystals, completed the musician’s look. The dress and the warm-toned veil seamlessly combine, giving a radiant, skin-toned glow. Crystals finish the look by accenting the veil’s crown and cascade delicately down the back drape. Additionally, additional sparkle is scattered throughout the train.

Rory, Melanie’s husband, chose Alexander McQueen from the UK and a traditional black tie outfit for the St. Paul’s ceremony, which had previously been done with tartan and a kilt.

We had a great time working with Mel, according to Justin Warshaw, CEO and Creative Director of Justin Alexander, when he spoke about the design. Every meeting was filled with creative ideas and laughter, and the spirit is woven into the garments we created.

“Co-creating these dresses together felt like a true celebration of her love story and personal style,” according to the designer, who expressed her joy and trust in the process.
