If you thought nothing could top the Victorian-style Chloé gown Ellie Goulding wore to marry Caspar Jopling over the weekend then wait until you see the dress she chose for the evening celebrations.
Musician SerpentwithFeet, also known as Josiah Wise, was invited to perform at the newlyweds’ reception at Castle Howard in York and shared a photograph of himself alongside the bride via Instagram.
In the image, the 32-year-old can be seen in an off-the-shoulder cream gown, rumoured to be a Stella McCartney design, complete with a thigh-high embellished split - a look that needed nothing more than a pair of sparkly earrings to finish.
Though it wasn’t the only evening ensemble for Goulding, as she teased a plethora of post-ceremony looks during an interview with British Vogue.
“Ralph & Russo have collaborated on my favourite piece from their AW19 collection - it's a bodice of pearls and silk, which I will be wearing with an evening skirt, before switching into a pair of classic white tailored trousers for the reception," the artist revealed.

“I have a special Stella McCartney dress for when guests arrive at Castle Howard, and Balmain have also been so generous with their time. Olivier [Rousteing] has made me the most fun dress to dance the night away.”

Her evening ensemble was a far cry from the wedding dress designed by Chloé creative director Natacha Ramsay-Levi.

The high-neck gown featured a lace-adorned collar and sweeping tulle veil - both lovingly embroidered with the couple's initials.
Although that wasn’t the only meaningful touch, as the pop sensation’s dress also featured hand-stitched White Roses of York, a sweet tribute to her Yorkshire-born husband, complete with glass beading.

Due to the silk gown’s impressive detailing, the look reportedly took more than 640 hours to create with her veil alone needing a further 591 hours.

The dress was a dream come true for Goulding who always knew that the French fashion house would play a role in her big day.
Drawing inspiration from Princess Anne, Bianca Jagger and Grace Kelly’s wedding looks, she wanted something both modern yet traditional.
“I have never felt more special than the moment I first stepped into the dress during the fitting in Paris, and it was utterly awe inspiring to see the craftsmanship and attention to detail,” Goulding told British Vogue. “She has the most incredible vision.”
The wedding was a star-studded affair with the likes of Katy Perry, Orlando Bloom, Sienna Miller and James Blunt taking to the pews.
While close friends, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie, gave the ceremony a royal touch.
