She has kept coming back every summer since. ## Two restaurants taken over The newlyweds rented out two neighbouring restaurants in the historic centre for the celebration. ## Locals turned away Security stopped residents from walking through their own streets, and the frustration was visible on the day. ## The Dua Lipa echo It follows Dua Lipa's May wedding to Callum Turner in Sicily, where blocking off streets in the capital drew heavy criticism. ## Palermo is not for sale Residents there answered with graffiti on the walls of the ancient city, a warning about what these takeovers cost a place. > Palermo is not for sale ## Rose petals and Champagne Atack and Garner walked out through a shower of rose petals, then led the Champagne toast and worked the crowd of guests. ## Three courses down the steps Guests moved down the church steps to a three-course meal, starting with a choice of cod risotto or mandarin sorbet. ## Suckling pig and mango mousse Main was shredded suckling pig with pumpkin compote and roasted apples. Dessert was mango mousse with nougat ice cream and raspberry coulis. ## Love in eleven languages Every table was named after the word for love in a different language, from Scottish Gaelic and Swahili to Hawaiian, Korean and Fijian. ## David Tennant leads the cast The Rivals star fronted the guest list alongside castmates Alex Hassell, Rufus Jones, Bella Maclean and Victoria Smurfit. ## The writers came too Rivals writer Dominic Treadwell-Collins attended with lead producer Felicity Tucci and her husband, Devil Wears Prada actor Stanley Tucci. ## Who did not show Aidan Turner and Danny Dyer were absent. Atack's ITV gameshow with Dyer, Nobody's Fool, was dropped after one season. ## No Inbetweeners in the room Not one of her Inbetweeners castmates was there, a gap that reads loudly given the franchise made her name. ## The role she may not get back A third Inbetweeners film was announced last week, with no word on whether Atack returns as Emily Hinchcliff. ## The reunion she lost She was reportedly cut from the 10th-anniversary special on the eve of filming, after James Buckley allegedly issued an it's her or me ultimatum over fears about an alleged off-screen romance. ## Comedians and oysters Keith Lemon and Katherine Ryan were in the crowd, Ryan helping herself to pre-ceremony oysters with husband Bobby Kootstra. Iain Stirling came with wife Laura Whitmore. ## Key takeaway Celebrity weddings in small towns buy the whole place for a day, and locals notice the bill even when the bride says sorry.
