British Big Gay Celebrity Wedding

Courtney Love and Elton John were among the guests when the star of the wildly popular comedy show Little Britain, Matt Lucas, married his boyfriend, TV Producer Kevin McGee, in an extravagant wedding ceremony in London Sunday.

The 32-year-old comedy actor and the 30-year-old producer tied the knot at a private club in central London, emerging from the ceremony holding hands shortly after 3pm and briefly posed for pictures before retreating to rejoin their friends and family.

More than 100 onlookers spilled out on to the road, blocking the oncoming traffic, and four police officers were deployed to control the crowds.

The couple later held a pantomime-themed reception, where they were joined by friends and family, including Elton John and David Furnish, Will Young, Stephen Gately, and Courtney Love.

"They were so sweet," one onlooker said of Lucas and McGee, who was dressed as Prince Charming. "They looked very much in love but also a bit like a couple of naughty schoolboys."

Of the festivities, Lucas said: "I like dressing up, I'm quite a preppy, dull dresser in my life, so it's a chance for me to be a bit more outrageous." Which quite obviously also was the case for Elton John and his husband David Furnish.

Lucas and McGee have been together for three years and got engaged last May.
