Ryan Thomas has said a long weekend of incredible wedding celebrations has left him 'honoured' as he reflected on Manchester fashion entrepreneur Umar Kamani tying the knot with love Nada Adelle at a lavish multi-million-pound celebration in the South of France.

The former Coronation Street star, and childhood friend of the groom, was one of two best men alongside James Pryer at the epic three-day wedding with his fiancee Lucy Mecklenburgh and brothers Adam and Scott Thomas also in attendance alongside Adam's wife Caroline.

The string of famous faces in attendance at the special weekend, held at the Hotel du Cap-Eden-Roc, didn't stop there as supermodel Naomi Campbell, footballer Rio Ferdinand and wife Kate, Boyzone star Ronan Keating and boxer Anthony Joshua joined friends and family of the happy couple to watch them tie the knot in epic proportions.

And there were more than enough surprise superstar performances from Andrea Bocelli at the ceremony to Jay Sean and Mariah Carey helping keep the party going.

Following the busy yet spectacular weekend, actor Ryan took to social media to reflect on the special part he played in the weekend. Alongside pictures of himself and James alongside the dapper groom and gorgeous bride, the former Coronation Street star said: "To Mr & Mrs Kamani, you brought a fairytale to life this week."

He continued: "A memory we will all remember forever. It’s been a honour & privilege for us to be your best men. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts." Umar, 36, the founder of Manchester's Pretty Little Thing fashion label, was quick to respond, writing: "The best, best men anyone could ever ask for."

Meanwhile, Boyzone singer Keith Duffy gushed: "A great man not just a best man." But former Corrie co-star Simon Gregson couldn't help make a cheeky dig at Ryan, joking: "It’s either very sunny or there’s a question in your mind you just can’t find the answer to."

But Ryan's fans and followers were quick to respond in awe. @chars_home_sweet_home said: "Whilst the wedding looked amazing the friendship goals displayed all weekend should be those we all aspire to achieve! So much love in those memories." @suzanne__allison wrote: "I have been far too invested in this wedding this weekend! Absolutely stunning."
