But while the invitees included the likes of Gordon Ramsay, Eva Longoria , it seems not everyone got the invitation expected.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were rumoured guests at the big day, thanks to David and Victoria attending their wedding in 2018 and David regularly calling Harry a close friend and ‘amazing’ person.
However a report from suggests that the former senior royals did not get an invite – and were snubbed in favour of Prince William and Kate.
A source told the outlet that the former England footballer and Spice Girls star agonised over which royal couple to invite due to the alleged ‘rift’ between the brothers.
And in the end, they chose to invite the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge thanks to their long history of friendship; David and Victoria were also guests at William and Kate’s nuptials in 2011.
The source explained: ‘David and Victoria wrote to William and Kate inviting them and the family to their son’s wedding, and William replied wishing them a great deal of joy but they are unable to attend.’
‘David’s attachment and history go back with William and Kate and they have a very strong relationship and they were their choice of wedding guests,’ the source added.
‘It was always about them, it was never about Meghan and Harry.’
While the Beckhams’ alleged decision to invite William and Kate over Meghan and Harry may have meant neither royal couple were present for the big day, there were plenty of other high-profile guests to watch Brooklyn and Nicola tie the knot.
Former Spice Girls Mel C and Mel B, as well as tennis legend for the glam ceremony.

Baby Spice Emma Bunton also confirmed that she wouldn’t be able to make it to see Brooklyn walk down the aisle on Saturday, sharing photos of the happy couple on Instagram.
‘These two beautiful souls are getting married today,’ the Baby Spice singer told fans. ‘I’m so sorry I couldn’t make it there to celebrate you both.
‘We Love you all very much. @victoriabeckham @davidbeckham try not to cry to much!! #happytears [sic].’
