Mel B and Rory McPhee had the privilege to get married at St. Paul's Cathedral as the singer was awarded the distinction of becoming a Member of the Order of the British Empire (MBE). She received it from Prince William in 2022. The distinction recognized her efforts in raising awareness about domestic violence.

Only one of Mel B's former bandmates attended her wedding — Emma Bunton, also known as Baby Spice. The Spice Girls also included Victoria Beckham, Geri Halliwell and Melanie "Mel" C. Mel B walked down the aisle in a dress designed by Josephine Scott. She later changed into a dress from designer Justin Alexander.
