Geri couldn’t make it as she was with her husband in Australia.

The luxury wedding had a gold and white theme and the couple had signed a deal with to distribute the pictures from the event, which was a lavish three-day affair.

Becks — famously dubbed Goldenballs — also called his new daughter-in-law “incredible” after she and Brooklyn tied the knot.

The ceremony took place on Saturday at her billionaire financier dad Nelson’s £76million oceanfront estate in Palm Beach, Florida.

The wedding party raged on until 3am, with live music and dance tunes pumping from a makeshift “nightclub”.

An insider told The Sun: “David’s speech went on for about five minutes and he looked to shed a tear at one point.

“He was talking about when Brooklyn was born and how he wanted to protect him.

“He said he was sleeping on the hospital floor, holding the door shut because he didn’t want to let anyone get in.

“David got a lump in his throat and had to stop and take a breather to regain his composure, but it was a very sweet speech.”

And in a tribute to Nicola during a pre-party on Friday night, father-of-four Becks said: “We love you so much. We are excited that you’ll be part of the family.”

Aspiring chef Brooklyn and actress Nicola got hitched in a “double-wedding” in a nod to her parents’ heritage. They had a Catholic ceremony for her mum, and a Jewish one for her dad.

Brooklyn — who has taken Nicola’s surname as his middle name — married her in a marquee in the garden.

Nicola arrived at the altar in a Valentino dress with a veil and holding a bouquet at 6.05pm.

The venue had a white grand piano and a flower-covered chuppah — a canopy — as is traditional at Jewish weddings.

Brooklyn crushed a glass in keeping with Jewish tradition, then kissed his bride twice — once for six seconds — before they walked down the aisle to Billy Joel’s She’s Got A Way at 6.30pm.

A-list guests later drank £200-a-bottle Bollinger champagne in the marquee next door as a jazz band played.

Chef Gordon Ramsay was seen hugging and joking with Brooklyn’s younger brother Cruz at the hour-long cocktail party which followed the ceremony.
