Marnie proudly showcased her immaculate lawn which stretched from either end of the garden.
She wrote alongside a series of photos: "WOWWWW Forever Green Lawns UK.
"After hours of research and looking at hundreds of different samples we finally settled on the NYC from Forever Green Lawns."
She added: "We now have a space that’s usable all year and we cannot wait to start hosting for family and friends this summer."

But the fake lawn left fans divided with some saying it wasn't environmentally friendly and looked tacky.
One wrote: "Not a single thing for bees to feed on I don’t understand why this is such a big trend in England there’s literally a reason for real plants."
Another posted: "Sorry I do like you - but so sad to see all the plastic. The poor wildlife. The impact of artificial grass is immense," while a third echoed: "What about the birds, bugs and bees?"
A fourth agreed and commented: "I genuinely don’t get why so many people like this. It looks so fake. I guess I just love a natural garden with lots of beautiful wild flowers etc. These super modern homes just don’t have character, it’s all the same 'Insta' style."

Someone else Why have such a lovely garden with beautiful trees and spoil it with s*** fake grass."
While another added: "Not a single thing for bees to feed on I don’t understand why this is such a big trend in England there’s literally a reason for real plants."
But some fans were quick to defend Marnie's choice.
One wrote: "If they want artificial… it’s their choice. Simple. Lifestyle. Time. Kids. Soooo many negative nellies in the world."
A second posted: "Yes so pleased you shared this ! We’re about to do a massive reno so will be needing these!"
Marnie has been on cloud nine after tying the knot with long-term partner Casey Johnson.
The TV star took to her Instagram to tell fans she "is a wife" as she flashed her wedding ring for her social media followers.
The former reality TV star got engaged to the singer back in 2020, and finally said 'I do' in a star-studded ceremony on Wednesday.
The couple had been forced to delay their nuptials, which was attended by the Geordie Shore cast, due to the Covid-19 pandemic.
A source told The Sun ahead of their nuptials: “The day is finally here and Marnie and Casey can’t wait to make it official.
“Some of Marnie’s Geordie Shore cast mates will be there and they are letting the cameras capture it all.”
Casey and Marnie met on the show Single AF in 2017.
They confirmed their relationship just a few months after the show ended - a move that is against show rules but it didn't seem to worry the smitten love-birds.
