Geri and Christian Horner were among the high-profile guests seen arriving for Formula 1 star David Coulthard’s wedding to his Swedish model partner, Sigrid Silversand, at a lavish celebration.
Coulthard, 55, and Silversand, 32, tied the knot in a glittering ceremony at Barwhinnock House, their 85-acre estate near Twynholm in Kircudbrightshire, Scotland.
Former Spice Girl Geri Horner and her husband Christian, the ex-racing driver and Red Bull team principal, were photographed outside The Murray Arms, a luxury hotel in nearby Gatehouse of Fleet, before the event.
The guest list also featured DJ Professor Green, along with former Formula 1 drivers Mika Häkkinen, Martin Brundle and Jean Alesi.
Guests arrived in style, with limousines and helicopters used to ferry celebrities and well-heeled attendees to the wedding festivities.
Scottish television presenter Lee McKenzie, a familiar face in F1 coverage alongside Coulthard, posted footage on social media from inside a helicopter flying over the Scottish coastline on Friday evening.
Joining her on board were Scottish motorsport icon Sir Jackie Stewart, 87, and Australian former racing driver Mark Webber, who posed with champagne glasses and an open bottle.
McKenzie later uploaded images of herself wearing two different formal looks, captioning the posts “wedding day one” and “wedding day two.”

There was also speculation that TV star Amanda Holden and her husband Chris Hughes, who have enjoyed a long-lasting relationship with Coulthard, would be in attendance. The former racing driver is godfather to the couple’s teenage daughter, Lexi.
The day’s festivities were expected to end with a stunning fireworks display in the evening.
Coulthard and Ms Silversand met around 2021 after the racing driver had split from his first wife, Karen Minier, with whom he has a 17-year-old son, Dayton.
The couple were engaged in Mauritius last year and are understood to have had a recent civil wedding in Monaco, where Coulthard is based.
Ms Silversand discussed the engagement last year, saying: ‘It was a surprise as David is really good at hiding stuff.
‘He kept it a secret and asked my parents for permission to marry me. He’s a proper gentleman and there are only a few of them left.’
Last month Coulthard reportedly had to be carried away from his stag do after a 13-hour drinking session.
The racing driver-turned pundit was snapped stumbling out of a bar at 1am in Puerto Banus, Spain supported by friends – including Amanda Holden’s husband Chris Hughes.

The stag party of eight enjoyed a night out after checking into the Hard Rock Hotel in Marbella, with Sky Sports’ Martin Brundle understood to be in attendance on the second day.
The group are said to have had lunch at the Ocean Club and forked out more than £1,000 for their own waiter and a poolside bed.
Later, they attended La Sala bar, with Brundle, 67, among the first to end the night just after midnight.
Coulthard was helped back to the hotel around an hour later after what looked like a heavy night.
Chris, who married Amanda in 2008, is said to have told security guards: ‘I’ll put him to bed.’
Friends remarked it looked like Coulthard had had ‘the time of his life’.
The former Williams, McLaren and Red Bull driver was previously married to Karen Minier, a Belgian Formula One correspondent, from 2013 to 2022.
