Big Brother star ties the knot at Cheshire's Peckforton Castle

Craig Phillips, the winner of the first series of Big Brother, has wed his partner Laura Sheriff at one of Cheshire's most exclusive venues.

The day saw 200 of the couple's nearest and dearest come together for celebrations and romance, but instead of wedding gifts the generous pair asked for donations to children's hospice Helen and Douglas House (www.helenanddouglas.org.uk). The charity is close to Laura's heart as they provided care for her brother. As well as guest donations, the bride will also be auctioning off her wedding dress to raise money.

Since winning the reality show, Craig has become a successful property developer and television DIY expert. After a wonderful snowboarding honeymoon, the happy couple have returned home to launch their newest venture, Mr and Mrs DIY, a website showcasing a series of how-to videos for jobs in the home and garden.
