The couple began dating after playing brothers in the ITV soap, have splashed out six figures for their wedding at the exclusive Wilderness Reserve in Suffolk where weddings start at a whopping £65,000.
The couple got engaged in 2022 with Max getting down on one knee on holiday with a ring made from one of Kris’ beloved grandmother’s locket.
They’ve hired the super-swish Chapel Barn venue on the estate for the multi-day bash that begin last night.
Bottles of Laurent-Perrier Cuvee Rose (£82 a bottle) kept guests refreshed at the outdoor rehearsal dinner BBQ last night, while wedding favours included ‘KM’ branded bars of Tony’s Chocolate Chocolonely bars.
The guests were led from the barn across the meadows to a lakeside dinner by a brass band.
To end the night the couple got into a rowing boat on one of the 5,000 acre estate’s lakes together to release some Chinese lanterns.
And today’s main event began with breakfast followed by a group workout for the super-fit couple with the partying set to go on until 2am.
They exchanged vows in a stunning countryside setting before being driven off together while waving to their nearest and dearest.
Red confetti showered over them after their vows.
One wedding industry insider said the couple would have easily spent more than £100,000 on their day.
The couple will tie the knot today in front of a hundred or so of their closet acquaintances including Code of Silence star Kieron Moore and Love Island’s Callum Jones.
However it seems their fellow soap stars didn’t make the cut.
It is set to make Coronation Street star Jack P. Shepherd’s recent wedding in Manchester look like a booze-up in the Rovers.

Real-life soap couples
Soaps are renowned for their sweet and scandalous romances – but it’s not just in scripted storylines where love is blossoming. A number of our favourite small-screen actors have fallen for co-stars and soapland rivals when the cameras have stopped rolling.
The Sn exclusively revealed how the pair’s relationship developed in 2020 after they both appeared on Emmerdale playing brothers Luke and Lee Posner.
Max quit the soap in 2022 and has gone on to have success in a host of other shows including Vampire Academy and Doctor Who and will soon star in Netflix’s next big dramatic comedy from the late legendary producer Norman Lear, Boots, later this year.
Kris meanwhile, who first found fame on Brookside, has starred in Vera and The Long Shadow while also working in events.
