David, 46, and Victoria, 47, will no doubt have inspired Brooklyn, 23, for his big day – with no expenses spared on their eldest son’s upcoming £3.5million wedding.

Back in 1999, the photographer was the star guest – aged just four months old – when his parents got hitched in Dublin, Ireland.

The couple, known as Posh and Becks, became husband and wife at the stunning Luttrellstown Castle – which dates back to the 1700s.

David and Victoria’s big day was curated by Bentley’s Entertainments, who also organised Elton John’s birthday and Princess Anne’s 40th.

The pair had searched for three months for the perfect venue with their planners before settling on the castle, sitting on a 560 acre plot of land.

“Victoria wanted somewhere really private and unique, somewhere leafy and green,” organiser Peregrine Armstrong-Jones told OK! magazine.

David and Victoria then opted for a Robin Hood theme to their big day – which had a colour palette of green and purple at the reception.

The Spice Girl hand-picked the specialist floral installations by Simon Lycett, who worked on Hugh Grant classic Four Weddings and a Funeral.

Fresh apples had been pierced around the stunning castle to give the entire place the smell of fresh fruit – while a leafy walkway was constructed to see guests on their walk into the reception.

The couple said ‘I do’ in the chapel on the site of the castle, after they were given a special licence to marry by the Archbishop of Dublin.

The pair both dressed up for the occasion – with David donning a Timothy Everett designed cream suit, and Victoria in a Vera Wang dress.

She completed her look with a diamond and gold coronet made by Slim Barrett, who crafted pieces for Princess Diana.

David was driven to the nuptials in a £230,000 Bentley Azure, while bride-to-be Victoria arrived shortly after in a Bentley Arnage.

Celebrity guests were entertained by a string quarter as they waited for the bride and groom to arrive.

Among them were all the Spice Girls, and both David and Victoria’s parents – before the remaining 226 guests arrived for the reception.

Dozens of bottles of Laurent Perrier pink champagne had been purchased for the event, where posh canapes were served throughout.

At the reception, Victoria and David were sat in a “bridal alcove” in huge crushed velvet thrones – as they were joined by then baby son Brooklyn.

The couple and their guests enjoyed a three-course meal as an 18-piece string orchestra played Spice Girls hits throughout the evening.

Their three-tiered Rachel Mount cake was cut at 10pm, followed by speeches from both sides of the family and their friends.

Following the speeches, guests were taken to a second marquee where the dance floor had been laid out, while Mr and Mrs Beckham changed into their evening attire designed by Antonia Beradi.

Before the couple and their guests partied the night away, they enjoyed their first dance to Frank Sinatra’s It Had To Be You.
