The actress' special day comes after she joined the Waterloo Road reboot this year.

Katie looked stunning in a ivory ankle-grazing gown with cup-bra detail and delicate floral embroidery.

She finished off her look with a cream headband which swept back her brunette locks, which she wore in a long straight style.

Katie was seen holding her new husband's hand as they strolled outside their venue.

Later on, the actress switched to an ivory slip dress with a slit up the front.

She ditched her wedding shoes for converse trainers as she swirled around the dancefloor with the Fintech company founder.

Their first dance saw them boogie to Jump On It and Michael Jackson's Thriller, which saw Matthew pluck her off the floor and twirl her around.

Alongside snaps of the special day, the beaming bride gushed: "The perfect day.

"Happy to now confirm I am married to the love of my life."

Katie was just 17 when she joined the cast of Waterloo Road in 2006.

In the 2023 reboot of Waterloo, her character Chlo is now all grown up with children of her own.

Katie reprised the role this year and told the BBC she was thrilled to be back: "It's been wonderful. It feels like coming back but also everything is different.

"The set’s different. The classes are brand new, there’s a really exciting cast and some returning faces.

"So it's been a bit of everything but it’s been lovely. "

The star developed the acting bug at an early age, and aged 12  joined Stage 84, the Yorkshire School of Performing Arts.

It was because of this school she landed the job in BBC One's Waterloo Road.

After leaving the hit classroom drama she appeared opposite Nicholas Hoult as Alice in the Bafta nominated television film Coming Down The Mountain.
