Emmerdale star Isabel Hodgins has shared the details of her recent wedding to teacher Adam Whitehead.

The actor, who plays Victoria Sugden on the soap, tied the knot last month in a local ceremony at Manchester’s Castlefield Rooms.

“Some of our first dates were in town,” Hodgins told OK!. “And we like to run there, so I think it was nice that we kept it there.”

The star, who got engaged in 2023, detailed the stress of planning the event, which was soon forgotten when the big day finally arrived.

“A wedding’s quite stressful, so even before it I was over it,” she said. “Then the day came and I was like, we’ll just go with the flow. It was perfect. I couldn’t believe how much I enjoyed it, how full my heart was. It was just brilliant.”

Hodgins also struggled to find the perfect outfit before she landed on a dress by Australian designer Sassi Holford.

“The [other] dresses were beautiful, but not on me, so I quickly realised it needed to be plain because otherwise it’s the dress wearing me, not me wearing the dress,” she said.

“At first, I was like, ‘Why am I looking at sleeveless dresses for an April wedding? What an idiot.’ But we struck gold with the weather,” she recalled. “I felt beautiful in it, which is all you want.”

The event was attended by the couple’s nearest and dearest, including Emmerdale stars Danny Miller, Eden Taylor-Draper, Mark Jordon, Laura Norton, Jeff Hordley and Zoë Henry, who Hodgins said are like family to her.

She added: “I’ve known them for so long, Laura’s like a sister to me. Eden was my bridesmaid. They’re just all such special, beautiful people. I said in my speech that me and Adam hadn’t been going out for very long and I was telling Zoë about him and she was like, ‘I’ve got a feeling you’re going to marry this man.’ She just knew.”
