“Guests including Samia’s Corrie co-stars Catherine Tyldesley, Shayne Ward and Antony Cotton drove in on a gold cart. Wedding favours were cookies with S&S on them."
The lavish venue - which was once owned by Take That frontman Gary Barlow - can host wedding parties for 50 to 250 guests and includes its own nightclub, three huge reception rooms and six bedrooms, The Sun Online reports.

Antony Cotton - who plays Sean Tully - had previously posted a snap of his invitation, alongside the caption: "We're so excited....! @realsamia @slongchambon"
Samia - who has played Maria Connor on the ITV soap since 2000 - recently gushed about her wedding plans in her OK! Online blog.

Catherine Tyldesley also tweeted about the lovebirds' special day
She wrote: "With all the planning that's gone into it, I want to be able to try and enjoy the day as much as we can. A lot of people who get married say that they hardly spoke to their husband on the day so I'd really like to try and get a few minutes with Sylvain where it's just us to be able to digest it all.
"We've also tried to keep our guest numbers down as much as possible to our really close friends and family as we want to be able to spend time with everyone and not to get to the end of the day and feel like we've not had chance to chat to all our guests," she added.
Samia and Sylvain started dating in 2013 after being partnered together on ITV's Dancing On Ice.
