Marisa, who enjoyed a boozy hen do last month with her pals, tied the knot with Jamie on Saturday.
The happy couple opted for a theme of Hollywood glamour, and thought the Firle Place in East Sussex made the perfect venue for this.
Speaking to Vogue on her big day, Marisa revealed: “Things really fell into place once we found our ceremony and dinner locations.
“We wanted to lean into our love of classic, nostalgic romance with our ceremony.”
She added: “Firle Place is such a beautiful home with so much character, and I fell in love with the drama of those big blue doors.
Marisa made a beautiful bride and went for classic silk wedding dress which took over 250 hours to make.
The gown, which was designed by Emilia Wickstead, oozed elegance and had a constructed corset and draped off the shoulder.
Speaking about her dress, she told the fashion magazine: “We are both theatrical.
“And we don’t shy away from a touch of drama when it feels appropriate, so I knew I wanted my wedding dress to feel like a real moment.”
Talking about her choice of designer, she added: “Emilia creates dresses with such timeless elegance that I knew she would understand my references immediately,”
GETTING ENGAGED
Marisa is well known for starring in the Amy Winehouse movie, Back To Black.
And in a nod to the Amy, Marisa’s new husband popped the question in one of the late singer’s favourite places.
It came after he chose Primrose Hill to get down on one knee, which is nearby to the Rehab star’s beloved Camden.
Jamie asked Marisa to marry him in July, 2024, and sharing the moment at the time on Instagram he joked: “She said she’ll think about it!”

BECOMING A STAR
Marisa first found fame as posh and seductive investment banker Yasmin in sex-fuelled BBC drama Industry.
This then led to her being cast in the Sam Taylor-Johnson directed Amy Winehouse movie Back To Black last year.
Before finding fame Marisa was set on becoming a human rights lawyer, and accepted a place at University College London to study history.
But she turned it down in favour of a spot at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA) – which in turn led to her meeting Jamie.
She told Vogue: “We were best friends throughout the course, and Jamie finally asked me out when we were graduating in 2019.
“We’ve been together ever since.”
