The wedding party included the bride's sister Flora, left, Henry House and Tara O'Callaghan, the bride's mother Janet, father Derek and best man Edward Pownell. In front are the bride's nephew, Callum, and the bride's cousins, Sarah and Jacob Laverty. DA5387P06 ROYAL milliner Tara O'Callaghan was turning heads when she married Henry House at All Saints' Church, in Whiteparish, on Saturday afternoon.
Miss O'Callaghan (31), whose designs have been worn by Princess Anne's daughter, Zara Phillips, and the Duchess of Gloucester, looked stunning in a gown with a ruffled antique lace bodice and cape, an ivory silk-panelled skirt and a train decorated with ruffled lace.
Some of the 160 guests sported her creations for their headgear, as did her mother, Janet, sister, Flora, who was her bridesmaid, and Sarah Laverty, her flowergirl.
Given away by her father, Derek, Miss O'Callaghan was also attended by pageboys Callum O'Callaghan and Jacob Laverty, nephew and cousin of the bride respectively, who wore matador-style outfits with cummerbunds and tassels in red - the bride's favourite colour.
Best man was Edward Pownell, a schoolfriend of Mr House.
Officiating was Canon Martin Shallcross, who used to be assistant chaplain at the former Cranborne Chase girls' school, in Wardour, where the bride was a pupil.
The new Mr and Mrs House left the church on a trailer festooned with flowers and pulled by a tractor driven by Hugh Burnard, a neighbour of the O'Callaghans, who painted the vehicle red at the bride's request.
The couple are honeymooning in Cuba and Costa Rica, via Paris, and will begin married life in New York, where Mr House (31) is head of Christie's English furniture department.
