Former Aussie pop star Peter Andre's marriage to busty glamour girl Jordan has been labelled "tacky" by the British media.
Andre and Jordan - whose real name is Katie Price - married on the weekend in a star-studded event at Highclere Castle, in Newbury in England's Berkshire.
The pair met and fell in love on the reality TV show I'm A Celebrity ... Get Me Out Of Here.
They became engaged last November and recently had their first child, Junior.
The Sunday Mirror headline read, "Jordan and Peter: Blacked out cars, tiny white ponies, pink egg carriage ... a tacky triumph".
The Sun described the wedding as the "over-the-top chav wedding of the year".
A chav is a derogatory slang term describing someone as being uneducated, uncultured and prone to antisocial or immoral behaviour.
The paper showed pictures of the pink gilded thrones that Andre, 32 and Jordan, 27, sat on.
The newspaper quoted a source as saying about the bride, "She couldn't walk properly and it took four bridesmaids to help her sit down.
"She could have used some advice on good taste."
Meanwhile, The Mirror described the event as "the ceremony that most broadsheets will inevitably call tacky but cover anyway - secretly they would all love to have been there."
The Guardian ran a column on the nuptials titled: "Is celebrity dead?"
The paper pointed out that "Jordan is famous for shagging a footballer and allowing a surgeon to slice her tits open and poke bags of silicone in.
"And that is all. Peter Andre, on the other hand, is so much less."
In another Guardian story, the paper asked "can it ever be topped?"
And the headline for Scotland on Sunday read, "Who Cares?"
Jordan is a topless model known for her 32FF bust, while Andre, originally from the Gold Coast, had hits in Australia with pop songs such as Gimme A Little Sign and Funky Junky.
The glamour girl arrived for the ceremony in a Cinderella-style horse-drawn carriage.
She donned a tight pink dress covered in fake diamonds and walked down the aisle to Whitney Houston's I Have Nothing, from The Bodyguard soundtrack.
About 350 people attended the wedding, with helicopters hovering above the castle and more than 100 fans gathering outside the castle.
The couple have signed a megabucks deal with a glossy celebrity magazine OK!
