“Mel swore she would never get married having a big do wasn’t really for her.
“It is the perfect venue for them, totally out of the way but in the most beautiful place.
“Victoria won’t be there but she loves Mel, and she will have made sure that she sends a beautiful present.

The venue has been described as the “perfect setting for an elopement, small, sophisticated wedding”, which is bang on for Mel’s dream wedding.
The impressive house which is located in the centre of a Cumbrian village is surrounded by waterfalls, rivers and an expansive country landscape.
It has six lavish en-suite bedrooms as well as “impressive living spaces”.
The house also features a massive lawn which is expected to be where guests will mingle and celebrate after the ceremony.
Alongside Forster the venue is owned by property developer Paul Longman, the pair spent years transforming the property into a luxury retreat.
Mel is the last of the girls from the pop group to tie the knot, having met Chris back in 2023 on celeb dating app Raya.
Mel and Chris have kept a lot of their romance under wraps with fans desperate to know about her relationship with the Aussie star.
They told The Times back in January: “It’s something I didn’t think would be part of my story [marriage], but I’m so happy with Chris.
“Maybe it is something that will be in my life.”
