Sam Faiers stuns in a pink feather dress as she gives a behind-the-scenes look at Ashley Cole and Sharon Canu’s lavish wedding in Italy

Sam Faiers gave a behind-the-scenes look at Ashley Cole and Sharon Canu’s lavish wedding celebrations in a slew of Instagram posts shared Monday.

The ex-Chelsea footballer, 42, and the blonde beauty exchanged vows in Rome over the weekend at Hotel La Vecchia Posta in Ladispoli and splashed out in a lavish ceremony.

The former TOWIE star, 32, and her partner Paul Knightley joined a host of stars at the bash, including Frank and Christine Lampard and John and Toni Terry, and Sam gave a detailed look at the incredible marriage.

Celebrations include a fireworks display and a live orchestra after enjoying champagne on the balcony of the beautiful cliff-side venue.

Photos and videos from the reception showed beautifully decorated long tables where guests enjoyed dinner before watching the fireworks.

Showing off her look for the evening, Sam looked stunning in a bright fuchsia feather dress.

The stylish number featured an off-the-shoulder detail, which she paired with a sparkly “Party Bag.”

She seemed happier than ever as she posed next to a dapper looking Paul in front of the Italian sunset before snapping a selfie later.

Other photos Sam posted show partygoers hopping on a golf cart for a quick ride and beautifully decorated tables, with personalized tablecloths.

Sam captioned the many photos: ‘I am so thrilled to witness the start of your new chapter as a married couple.

“As you embark on this new adventure, know that you have a circle of friends who will always be there for you.

“We are here to support, encourage and celebrate every milestone in your married life.

May your life together be filled with love, laughter and happiness. Thank you for the most incredible weekend.’

The marriage comes 12 years after Ashley’s four-year marriage to pop star Cheryl, 40, ended.

Sharon and Ashley share son Jaxon, six, and four-year-old daughter Grace, and the pair confirmed their engagement last year after first meeting in 2014.

After Ashley popped the question last year, Sharon later told Instagram followers it was the “easiest yes she’d ever said.”

The couple met in 2014, shortly after his move from Chelsea to Roma, before moving to Los Angeles two years later.

The couple exchanged vows in the romantic setting under a floral archway as the ocean stretched out behind them before walking back down the aisle.

A number of guests shared photos and videos of the wedding on social media where Sharon sparkled in a lace off-the-shoulder gown.

At the reception, the newlyweds and their guests danced the night away as John Terry grabbed the microphone to lead a sing-along.

A source told The sun earlier this month on the wedding: “Ashley and Sharon are madly in love and have spent months planning their special day.

“They met in 2014 when he joined AS Roma and now they are returning to the city for their wedding.

“A lot of her family lives there and it’s very romantic — it’s going to be a very special day.” They put a lot of money into it, but they only invited close friends and family.

“As a couple, they’ve been very private, so they don’t need a flashy, public wedding.”

Sharon celebrated her final days as a single lady last month with an epic bachelorette party in Ibiza.

The model soaked up the sun as she partied with a large group of friends, including reality star Sam.
