Husband Tiago, 26, wore a black suit and white tie inspired by Colin Bridgerton.

The guests also dressed well and Abby even produced a Lady Whistledown rumor mocking the “scandal” of her and James living together before.

They married in Swaffham, Norfolk, before a reception at the town’s Georgian Assembly Rooms.

Teaching assistant Abby said she kept hearing she was the lookalike of Penelope, played in the Netflix hit by Nicola Coughlan.

But she added: “I don’t see it myself, I think it’s just the red hair.”

Electrician Tiago hadn’t seen the show until he binge-watched it with Abby.

She said: “It was very romantic.”

Tiago said: “Abby did an amazing job on the wedding.

“At first I was very against wearing regency attire on my wedding day because I don’t like dressing up.

“But after watching Bridgerton more and more, I committed and I think I did pretty well with what I chose to wear.”
