James Moore, beloved for his role as Ryan Stocks in Emmerdale, just pulled off the wedding of the year with Sophie Edwards. The lakeside manor in Cheltenham set the stage for a day full of whimsy, complete with a bouncy castle and pumpkins to ring in the autumn. It wasn’t just the decor that had guests talking; James’s heartfelt speech about his life with cerebral palsy tugged at everyone’s heartstrings, making the celebration as touching as it was picturesque.
Can You Believe It? A Dairy Milk Suit!
In an unconventional twist, James Moore ditched the typical wedding attire for a purple suit inspired by his favorite Dairy Milk chocolate—a bold choice that had guests buzzing with delight. His bride, Sophie, was the epitome of elegance in a flowing white dress, her smile as bright as her sparkling pink engagement ring.
Sophie reminisced with “OK!” about the moment, saying, “Walking towards James, seeing him in that incredible suit, just reminded me of all the reasons I fell in love with him. His speech about overcoming challenges was the pinnacle of the evening—it resonated with everyone on a deeply personal level.”
More Than Just I Dos: Tattoos and Donuts, Anyone?
The reception was nothing short of a festival, with a Simpsons-themed donut wall and a temporary tattoo station complete with Pokémon designs, adding a quirky touch to the celebrations. “We both wanted our wedding day to be a celebration of love and the things we adore,” James explained. “Seeing our friends and family lining up for tattoos and laughing together was just as I had imagined our big day.”
Emmerdale’s Finest Turn Up to Celebrate
The guest list was a who’s who of Emmerdale. From Emma Atkins (the legendary Charity Dingle) to Dominic Brunt (Paddy Kirk), the cast showed up in force to support their mate. Emma shared, “Seeing James so happy and in love was beautiful. He’s a real inspiration to all of us on set.” As they start this new chapter, it’s clear that James and Sophie are ready to take on the world together, with a whole lot of love and a dash of Dales charm!
