Emmerdale stars who played brothers on the ITV soap are set to tie the knot TODAY in '£100,000 ceremony at 5,000-acre wilderness venue with a star-studded guest list'
The pair famously played brothers on the ITV soap, and are set to exchange their vows in a wedding with a reported £100,000 price tag.
Max and Kris are getting married at the lavish Wilderness Reserve in Suffolk, where weddings start at an eye-watering £65,000.
The couple first got engaged in 2022, and shared in July that they had set a wedding date for this month.
According to The Sun, the lavish wedding celebrations began on Tuesday where guests enjoyed an outdoor rehearsal dinner BBQ at the estate's swish Chapel Barn venue, before being given wedding favours of 'KM' branded bars of Tony's Chocolate Chocolonely bars.
Footage shared on Instagram showed guests were led from the barn across the meadows to a lakeside dinner by a brass band.
Those in attendance were treated to £82 bottles of Laurent-Perrier Cuvee Rose, and to end the evening, Max and Kris got into a rowing boat on one of the 5,000 acre estate's lakes together to release some Chinese lanterns.
The wedding itself will kick off with a lavish breakfast followed by a group workout, with partying set to last well into the early hours.
Guests in attendance include Love Island's Callum Jones and Code Of Silence star Kieron Moore, who have shared glimpses of the wedding on social media.
A source said: 'There really has been no expense spared for Max and Kris.
'Every detail has been taken care of with only the most stylish and chic things for their big day. It's something for their friends and family to remember forever.
'There's nothing garish, it's all very classy and about them as a couple celebrating with those closest to them.'
The couple previously starred as brothers on Emmerdale, with Kris starring as Lee Posner and Max as Luke Posner.
Despite never having shared a scene together in Emmerdale, backstage a friendship developed and then romance blossomed.

Announcing the news of their 2022 engagement Max wrote on Instagram: 'He deserves the world, but the best I could do was promise him my heart. HE SAID YES'.
'Happiest moment of my life. @krismoc my Fiancé.'
The couple celebrated with champagne on the beach and shared a sweet kissing snap in the post.
Max also posted a short video which shows him getting down on one knee with the ring, before they celebrate together with a kiss and a hug.
Kris wrote in his engagement announcement post: 'The beautiful soul that is my best friend asked me to marry him yesterday. I can't begin to describe how happy I am.
'I love him beyond words, we laugh every single day and I'm so so grateful that he came in to my life.
'I had no idea at all! But it was just perfect… I mean this film says it all. Max had asked my Mum for any jewellery that my Gran had. Mum still had my Grans locket and he has had it made in to the middle of the engagement ring on the inside. So so special.
'Thank you to the job that brought us together, our incredible family and friends. And the amazing love from you all. I'm a very lucky boy. WE ARE GETTING MARRIED!!!!!'
In 2020, Max shared his coming out story, after confirming his romance with co-star Kris, asserting: 'I feel comfortable now knowing that I am gay!'
Max quit Emmerdale in 2022 and has gone onto star in Vampire Academy and Doctor Who and will soon appear in Netflix's next big dramatic comedy from the late legendary producer Norman Lear, Boots, later this year.
Kris, who first found fame on Brookside, has starred in Vera and The Long Shadow while also working in events.

Vicki hits 'tragic' pervert Joel with a very serious warning in EastEnders
Vicki Fowler (Alice Haig) has issued her final warning to sick Joel Marshall (Max Murray) in EastEnders. It's about time that somebody shuts down his disgusting behaviour once and for all – but with Ross (Alex Walkinshaw) reluctant to turn his back on his son, he's pretty much been given free reign to do whatever he wants. In tonight's episode, however, Vicki swore to put a stop to that. She can see that her partner is effectively enabling Joel's vile ways, and won't stand for it any longer. Soon after his arrival, we discovered that Joel had upskirted a pupil in his class, and her family had ordered him to leave Australia in exchange for their silence. They'd also accepted a hefty $50,000 sum. The teen showed no signs of changing – recording himself sleeping with Avani Nandra-Hart (Aaliyah James), and introducing Tommy Moon (Sonny Kendall) to pornography. He then showed his new mate videos from an influencer, who spoke about women in a derogatory manner. The lads skived off school to take a trip into The City. On their journey home, Joel demanded Tommy whip out his phone and record something shocking. He stumbled through the carriage, falling onto a girl and touching her inappropriately. Later, Vicki met up with the victim and handed her £2,000 in exchange for her silence. In the aftermath, despite promising to do better, Joel has tore strips off Kat Moon (Jessie Wallace) and Stacey Slater (Lacey Turner), before seemingly leaking the latter's SecretCam content online. This came just days after Ross snapped branded his son a 'disgusting little pervert.' With the police reluctant to investigate, this couldn't be proved – but Stace' is adamant that he's responsible. Joel spiralled further after learning that Avani Nandra-Hart (Aaliyah James) had aborted their unborn child, and attempted to slap her. A furious Vicki charged in his way, and dragged him home. He reeled off a number of sick ideologies, including his belief that reproduction is the purpose of womanhood. She begged him to open his eyes and wondered if he looked at her any different having not had any children herself. In a truly horrifying move, he asserted that if she pushes him further, she'd find out that a 'proper slapping would do [her] the world of good.' In tonight's episode, Joel goaded Stacey, spelling it out to her that he was responsible for leaking her content and didn't care about the consequences for her. She asserted that he was nothing more than a 'dirty, disgusting little perv' and while he may have fooled the others, he hadn't fooled her. Want to be the first to hear shocking EastEnders spoilers?

Meanwhile, Vicky attempted to corner Ross and fill him in on last week's events – but he quickly shut her down. More Trending Realising that her family's trauma would only continue for as long as Ross brushed off her concerns, she then caught Joel outside, calling him 'tragic'. He laughed in her face, but the smirk was soon wiped off when she told him in future she wouldn't hesitate to call the police. View More » Will Joel finally learn a lesson?

Exit storyline for Cain in Emmerdale amid huge murder shock
Cain Dingle (Jeff Hordley) received an unexpected phone call in this evening's episode of Emmerdale. Earlier this year, Cain was told that his son Nate Robinson (Jurell Carter) had been murdered. It absolutely knocked him for six, as he had spent from September 2024 onwards believing that Nate had cut off all contact with his family in the village. The most recent development has seen Cain discover that a man called Owen (Simon Haines) confessed to murdering his son, but we know that this isn't true. In reality, Nate's actual killer John Sugden (Oliver Farnworth) framed Owen by writing a suicide note that confessed to the crime. He did this in the hope it would give Cain and Tracy Shankley (Amy Walsh) some closure. It was a massive mistake, however, as the news left Cain and Tracy with the realisation that they would never truly understand why Owen murdered Nate. On top of this, Cain has dealt with family drama involving the likes of Sarah Sugden (Katie Hill) and Moira Dingle (Natalie J Robb) . He's been through a lot, so it was a very welcomed and pleasant surprise when daughter Debbie Dingle (Charley Webb) rang him in tonight's ep. In May, Debbie contacted Sarah and revealed that she had moved to Australia with her new boyfriend. Debbie departing for Australia – surprisingly – upset Cain a great deal. At the time, he had learnt that Nate had seemingly organised for his things to be moved from the village and to Shetland, so another one of his children leaving him hit pretty hard. Cain spoke to Debbie in this evening's episode as he wandered through the village. His daughter wanted him to visit, and Cain rightfully pointed out that if Debbie wanted to see her family, she would've returned for Nate's funeral. It was a fairly pleasant conversation, but it was interrupted by the arrival of DC Cole. The detective confirmed to Cain that new information has come to light regarding Nate's investigation. Later, Cain told a very shaken John that the police now believe Owen did not murder Nate. What will John do this time to cover his tracks? And will Cain leave the village to go and see Debbie? Doing something to stop the police looking in his direction where Nate is concerned may have to wait for John this week. A few days ago, a trailer was revealed that sees John chase Mackenzie Boyd (Lawrence Robb) through the woods, moments after he discovers the truth about him. Mack dashes through the trees but ends up falling. Alongside these clips, we see John telling Mack that he has now 'joined up the dots'. While this is happening, Robert Sugden (Ryan Hawley) looks set to confront Aaron Dingle (Danny Miller). They will share a kiss on Monday, but Robert reckons that Aaron still loves him and doesn't want to leave with John. At the end of the trailer, Mackenzie is seen begging for his life as John throws a large rock above his head, presumably preparing for the moment he murders Mack.

'Guess I really am the bad guy', John says. More Trending If Mackenzie is murdered by John, it will be the first time (as far as we are aware) that he truly intends to kill someone. When Nate Robinson (Jurell Carter) was killed, John never planned for it to happen. He gave Nate some medication and he had a bad reaction to it, leading to his death. Could this be a sign that John will now become even more unhinged, ahead of his inevitable exit?

Ofcom reject 14,000 Love Island complaints over bullying and gaslighting after ‘most complained about series in 4 years'
LOVE Island will not be investigated by Ofcom - despite receiving more than 14,000 complaints about misogyny, bullying and mentally abusive behaviour.

Despite viewer's concern, the regulator will not be taking any further action. A spokesperson said."We carefully assessed the complaints we received about this series of Love Island. "We recognise that emotionally charged or confrontational scenes can upset some viewers. "But, in our view, negative behaviour in the villa was not shown in a positive light, and contestants were seen supporting or apologising to each other. "We also took into account that the format of this reality show is well-established, and viewers would expect to see highs and lows as relationships and friendships are tested." Ofcom received 14,167 complaints about the ITV reality series, including 24 about spin-off show Love Island: Unseen Bits, with the highest number of complaints coming on July 24, which saw 3,549 complaints relating to alleged bullying behaviour towards contestant Shakira Khan.
