Mulligan weds rock star boyfriend

British actress Carey Mulligan has tied the knot with her rock star boyfriend Marcus Mumford.

A host of stars, including Jake Gyllenhaal, Sienna Miller and Colin Firth, attended the bash on Saturday in Somerset, England.

Mulligan had eight bridesmaids, who wore turquoise, while Mumford's father - who is a vicar - married the happy couple on a remote farm.

The bride wore a plan ivory dress thought to be designed by Versace, with famed photographer Rankin taking the pictures.

Although the pair are yet to comment on their wedding day, it is thought Adele performed for them.

"Carey and Marcus are both huge fans of Adele and there will be millions of couples jealous that she is singing for them," a source explained.

"Adele has always wanted to work with Mumford & Sons so when Marcus asked her to play at his wedding she said yes. Adele has not been able to perform much at all since her throat op so it's a rare gig.

"It was meant to be a secret but the couple were so excited they've let it slip."

Mulligan asked Firth to speak at the reception, in a nod to his movie The King's Speech.

"She thought it would be funny to have the actor address the room," a source told British newspaper The Sun.

"Unlike his character in The King's Speech, Colin was a pro at the speech. He was his charming self and had the room in fits."

It is thought Firth and Mulligan became close during awards season in 2010, when they were both nominated for multiple prizes - Firth for A Single Man and Mulligan for An Education.
