“It was magical, absolutely a dream come true, the greatest day of my life.”
UPDATE:
A week after New Idea published a selection of photos of Ricki-Lee Coulter’s wedding and sold them in newsstands across Australia, the former Australian Idol contestant is now free to upload photos of her own wedding onto her social media channels.
She started with a totally candid/not at all posed photo of her and Rich, who is definitely her manager and not her personal trainer, as she pointed out in the romantic and very long caption.
Then she followed this up with a stunning, close-up photo of her ridiculously beautiful face and wedding dress.
Ricki-Lee and Rich’s friends have also started uploading their brilliantly picturesque photos from the wedding. And all we can say is – it was worth the week-long wait.

There was another super secret celebrity wedding over the last week that no one was invited to.
Australian Idol alum/former radio host/former Dancing With The Stars contestant Ricki-Lee Coulter flew to Paris to marry her long-term partner, Richard Harrison, who she calls Rich.
Ricki-Lee, 29, and Rich, who is also her manager, have been together for six years and engaged since 2013. Ricki-Lee had previously spoken about her desire to run off to France for an intimate wedding. So when she started posting photos from the Eiffel Tower, it was pretty obvious what was going on.
Ricki-Lee invited 27 of her closest friends and family, along with a photographer from New Idea, to her very intimate day.
The wedding took place at a castle – as you do – and it was pretty magnificent, according to Ricki-Lee.
There was French champagne, a three-course meal, and a wedding waltz that included Ricki-Lee serenading Richard as they danced.
“I wish we could have frozen time to stay in that moment,” she told New Idea.
“It was magical, absolutely a dream come true, the greatest day of my life.
“You know, we soaked up every moment and it was amazing, but time flew past. One minute, we were walking down the aisle, and the next minute, it was 4:30am and we were still dancing, kicking up our heels and flicking our hair!”
While she hasn’t shared photos of the wedding on her Instagram yet (we’re holding out hope they won’t be too far away) she is on the cover of New Idea in her ridiculously beautiful custom made dress by Joanna Johnson.
Ricki-Lee was previously married to Queensland builder Jamie Babbington, who she began dating at the age of 15. They divorced in 2008.

Can you really call it a "secret" wedding if the couple sells the details to a magazine?
