Gazing lovingly into one another's eyes, newlyweds Rupert Murdoch and Jerry Hall beamed with delight outside the 'spiritual home of the media'.
The 84-year-old media mogul and former supermodel, 59, reaffirmed vows made yesterday at their legally binding civil ceremony in front of a host of famous faces, from rock stars to Cabinet ministers.
Hall wore a Vivienne Westwood 'ice-blue' chiffon gown - believed to have cost £8,000 - with a beaded veil and headband and entered the 'journalists' church' with son James, 30, on her arm.
When asked by photographers how the service went, Hall replied: 'Absolutely wonderful, absolutely wonderful.'
Prior to her grand arrival, Murdoch, 84, was pictured smiling for the cameras with his sons Lachlan and James. They wore dark navy suits with a single white rose in their pockets.
The couple's daughters from their previous relationships acted as bridesmaids, holding flowers and wearing different shades of blue.

Media mogul Rupert Murdoch married Jerry Hall at an aristocratic palace after a five-month courtship. The couple married at Spencer House, overlooking Green Park, in central London yesterday
Rupert has four daughters from three marriages; Prudence, 57, Elisabeth, 47, Grace, 14, and Chloe 12. Jerry has two daughters, Lizzie, 32, and Georgia, 24, from her relationship to Sir Mick Jagger.
Shortly after the billionaire media tycoon entered the church, star-studded guests from across the media, music and film industry arrived.
This included musical theatre impresario Andrew Lloyd Webber, Boomtown Rats frontman Bob Geldof and actor Sir Michael Caine.
The wider Jagger family was also in attendance, an indication of how close Hall is to her former partner. Karis Jagger, Sir Mick's daughter by Marsha Hunt, and her two daughters were among the guests, as was his first wife, Bianca Jagger, and their daughter, Jade.
Justice Secretary Michael Gove was among the guests but Prime Minister was conspicuous by his absence.
Tony Blair, godfather to Murdoch's daughter Grace, 14, was also not invited. The media tycoon's relationship with Wendi Deng broke down amid reports about her infatuation with the former Prime Minister.
Music by Wagner, Schubert and Vivaldi filled St Bride's as the couple celebrated their marriage.
The rings were blessed and the newly-weds reaffirmed their marriage vows during the hour-long service, conducted by the Revd Canon Dr Alison Joyce, Rector of St Bride's church.
The congregation was asked: 'Will you, the families and friends of Rupert and Jerry, support and uphold them in their marriage now and in the years to come?' to which they replied 'We will.'
Murdoch's son, James, read out a passage from the Bible - 1 Corinthians 13 - to mark the occasion.
The second reading was performed by Hall's youngest son, Gabriel Jagger, 18, from her previous relationship to the Rolling Stones frontman. The teenager read an excerpt from the Chinese text Tao te Ching, by Laozi.
Hymns including Amazing Grace and Jerusalem were sung, while St Bride's choir performed Set Me As A Seal Upon Thine Heart.
The pair then signed St Bride's register of blessings before exiting the church to the sound of Vivaldi's Gloria.

The church can house up to 200 guests and was chosen by Murdoch given his historic family links to Fleet Street, a spokesman for St Bride's has previously said.
'I know Mr Murdoch is a very big fan of St Bride's and has been since his father cut his teeth on Fleet Street 60 years ago, so we are delighted to hold it here,' said the spokesman.
'His father led him to England and St Bride's has always been part of Fleet Street and the journalistic industry. Mr Murdoch has always had a lot of time and love for this place so we are delighted he is having a service of celebration here.'
Murdoch famously killed off the historic link between Fleet Street and the newspaper industry in the 1980s when he moved the printing presses to Wapping in east London.
The 84-year-old wrote of his elation shortly after marrying Hall on Friday following a five-month whirlwind romance.
He tweeted: 'No more tweets for ten days or ever! Feel like the luckiest AND happiest man in world.'

The pair emerged from their wedding at Spencer House, a venue which is described on its website as 'one of the most sumptuous private residences ever built' in the capital, smiling for photographers.
Built for John, 1st Earl Spencer, one of Princess Diana's ancestors, it remains in the ownership of the current earl, namely Diana's brother Charles Spencer.
Hall wore her trademark blonde hair in waves, and had a smart handbag slung over her arm. She wore a trench coat, a knee-length navy skirt and flat shoes, while Murdoch wore a navy suit.
As she beamed for the cameras and tossed her hair, she ensured photographers got the perfect snap of her 20-carat marquise diamond engagement ring, thought to have cost £2.4million.
Civil wedding ceremonies can take place in the Dining Room, Lady Spencer's Room and the Great Room.
The ceremony was witnessed by Murdoch's son Lachlan, who was joined by his wife Sarah, and one of Hall's closest friends Suzanne Acosta, wife of Rolling Stones star Bill Wyman.
The select party then moved on to an informal wedding breakfast at Scott's restaurant, in Mayfair, a lavish seafood eatery specialising in oysters, caviar and champagne.

The marriage is the fourth for Murdoch and the second for Hall, 59, who had a long relationship with Sir Mick Jagger.
They met in Australia last August, when Jerry was touring Down Under with a production of The Graduate. Penny Fowler, a niece of Murdoch's sister Janet, introduced them. They 'got on immediately' and made their relationship public on October 31 when they were seen for the first time together at the Rugby World Cup final at Twickenham in London.
They were pictured wearing matching Wallabies scarves and smooching in the stands. The pair were next seen walking arm-in-arm down the red carpet ahead of the Golden Globes awards ceremony.
He proposed over Christmas and they spent New Year's Eve on a yacht in the Caribbean with some of their children.
Jerry's old friend, actress Joan Collins, told Hello! magazine that Jerry gushed: 'I'm in lurve! Rupert just proposed!'
They announced the engagement after another joint appearance at the Golden Globe film awards ceremony in January - via a £324 advert in The Times.
The notice read: 'Mr Rupert Murdoch, father of Prudence, Elisabeth, Lachlan, James, Grace and Chloe Murdoch, and Miss Jerry Hall, mother of Elizabeth, James, Georgia and Gabriel Jagger, are delighted to announce their engagement.'
Murdoch was previously married to Wendi Deng, mother to two of his children, but they split in June 2013.
Their break-up came amid reports about her infatuation with former Prime Minister Tony Blair. The former Labour leader is also godfather to Grace, 14, his first child with Deng.

Murdoch's first marriage was to Australian Patricia Booker, a former flight attendant from Melbourne, and he then married Glasgow-born journalist Anna Torv.
Hall, one of four daughters, moved to Paris to pursue her modelling career aged just 16.
She met The Rolling Stones frontman in 1977, and the couple wed in 1990 in Bali. But their marriage was later disputed since it was not properly conducted, and was subsequently shown to be invalid.
She revealed how aggrieved she felt with Sir Mick - 13 years her senior - when his incessant womanising finally made her decide to end the relationship in 1999.
'I forgave and forgave and forgave to the point that it wasn't healthy at all,' the 6ft model ruefully recalled.
The pair have four children together, Lizzy, 32, James, 30, Georgia May, 24, and Gabriel, 18.
Sources close to Sir Mick said he was 'seething' over the wedding. One friend said: 'This means that Rupert Murdoch is going to become a part of his extended family, and Mick has a real problem with that.'
ROCKSTARS AND FLIGHT ATTENDANTS: THE LOVES IN THE LIVES OF A SUPERMODEL AND A BUSINESS MOGUL
Mr Murdoch was first married to Patricia Booker, a former flight attendant from Melbourne. They had a daughter, Prudence, together but split in 1966 after 11 years of marriage.
A year after the divorce, he married Glasgow-born journalist Anna Torv, who he met when she was working with a newspaper in Sydney and had the chance to interview him.
The couple had three children together and were married for more than 30 years before ending their relationship in 1999. Details are sparse but it is reported that the divorce could have cost him $1.2billion.
Just weeks after the divorce, Murdoch married Wendi Deng, a businesswoman from China, who he met while she was an intern at a TV station owned by News Corp.
She was 38 years his junior and had previously been married to a man 30 years older than her.
Murdoch and Deng split in 2013 and he remained single until news of his relationship to former model Jerry Hall – 25 years his junior - was announced last year.

Miss Hall is known for her relationship with Mick Jagger, who she was with for more than 20 years. However, she had a star-studded relationship history long before meeting him.
She moved to Paris as a model in the 70s and was reportedly the girlfriend of Brian Ferry, appearing on the cover of his band Roxy Music's first album Sirens.
They split five months later, but she also appeared in a 1976 video for his solo hit Let's Stick Together.
By then she was one of the world's most famous models and met Mick Jagger in 1976. They have four children together and had an unofficial marriage ceremony in Bali in 1990, but split in 1999, because of his infidelity.
After that, she had a number of younger lovers, starting with film producer George Waud, then London banker Tim Attias, 49.
She then met scientist Armand Leroi, 51, but the two split last year, before her relationship to Murdoch was announced when they were pictured at the Rugby World Cup in October.
