St Michael’s Church in Heckfield was lavishly decorated with floral displays for the occasion.
The couple and their guests exited the venue through a specially-constructed arch made of hydrangeas and roses provided by florists Veevers Carter.
Schofield said the ceremony was “amazing” and “great fun” as he left the church.

A large group of photographers were gathered outside the venue to capture the occasion.
Dozens of fans were also standing outside the church to catch a glimpse of the happy couple.

McPartlin and Corbett, who was formerly his personal assistant, have been in a relationship since 2018.
They got together following McPartlin’s separation from Lisa Armstrong, his wife of 11 years, earlier in 2018.
McPartlin and Corbett were reportedly planning to marry abroad but opted to host the ceremony in the UK because of the pandemic.

Corbett has two daughters from her relationship with ex-husband Scott Corbett.
Britain’s Got Talent presenter McPartlin, from Newcastle-upon-Tyne, has previously described Corbett as his “rock” after she supported him following his 2018 drink-driving arrest and stint in rehab.
