Mummy's girl: Stella McCartney attends the wedding reception of father Paul and Nancy Shevell with daughter Bailey

Inviting a host of famous faces to your own wedding could mean they hog the limelight.

But there were no airs or graces tonight as the stars descended on Sir Paul McCartney and Nancy Shevell's post-ceremony reception.

The low-key event was held at their St John's Wood home in London, with the likes of Ronnie Wood and model Twiggy flocking to the festivities.


Daughter Stella McCartney was also there with her own child Bailey, five.

The designer created Nancy's wedding outfit today, while photographer sister Mary was snapping pictures of the happy couple.

Never one to turn down a party, fellow musician Ronnie Wood turned up looking typically dapper with a young brunette companion.

Mary, 42, is the first biological child of Paul and first wife Linda, who passed away in 1998.

She looked elated for her father, attending the event with a beaming smile as she rocked a retro stripey dress and nude high heels.

Husband Sam Aboud on the other hand, looked a little serious and he led the way holding his wife's hand.

Artist Tracey Emin put in an appearance, no doubt knowing Stella through their mutual friendship with supermodel Kate Moss.

The Turner Prize-nominee opted to avert attention from her for a change, wearing a simple black trouser suit with some modest gold jewellery.
