Little Britain wedding
18 December 2006

The stars turned out in force for the civil partnership ceremony of British comedian Matt Lucas.

Famous for his role in Little Britain, Lucas 'married' TV producer Kevin McGee before holding a pantomime-themed reception at a London club.

Courtney Love made the trip from the US to the UK to be with her friend on his special day.

Love arrived dressed as the Queen of Hearts, while the likes of Barbara Windsor and Lucas' comedy co-star David Walliams arrived as the Fairy Godmother and Christopher Biggins respectively.

Singer Will Young dazzled as an Ugly Sister, while Vic Reeves, who worked with Lucas on hit show Shooting Stars, came as Captain Hook.

Elton John also turned up as Hook, while his partner, David Furnish, was dressed as Prince Charming.

Speaking after the ceremony, Lucas, who dressed as Aladdin, told the Daily Mirror that it felt great to dress up.

'I like dressing up. I'm a dull dresser, so it's a chance for me to be a bit more outrageous,' he said.

Lucas' partner McGee arrived at the reception dressed as Adam Ant.
