Melanie “Mel C” Chisholm is proving that even a potential wedding fashion faux pas can become a funny memory when it involves the Spice Girls.
The newlywed singer has opened up about the moment she noticed bandmate Geri Halliwell wearing white to her romantic Lake District wedding to Australian model Chris Dingwall — and her reaction was surprisingly relaxed.
Mel C Said She ‘Had a Little Chat’ With Geri Halliwell After the Wedding Photos Emerged
Mel C insisted there was no Spice Girls drama behind Geri Halliwell’s unexpected wedding guest look.
The duo tied the knot on July 18 after three years together during a two-part celebration that began with a civil ceremony in Sydney and ended with an intimate lakeside gathering in England. Joining her for the special occasion were fellow Spice Girls Mel B, Emma Bunton and Halliwell, while Victoria Beckham was the only member unable to attend.
However, it wasn’t Beckham’s absence that caught fans’ attention. Wedding photos showed Ginger Spice standing beside the bride in a floral dress that featured a striking amount of white, leading many fans to wonder whether Mel C had something to say about it.
Victoria Beckham customized Mel C’s Lake District gown.

Speaking on Sydney radio station KIIS 1065, the “I Turn to You” singer said, “I did have a little chat with Geri because it is her favorite color… She had a beautiful floral dress on, and it was white."
She quickly reassured listeners that there was no behind-the-scenes Spice Girls drama, joking the 53-year-old star wears white “every day."
“I did have a little giggle with her about that,” she added.

Victoria Beckham Still Played a Major Role in Mel C’s Wedding Despite Missing the Ceremony
Mel C praised Victoria Beckham’s designs for feeling 'really feminine.'
While Halliwell’s outfit sparked conversation, Beckham still played an important role in the wedding despite being thousands of miles away.
The fashion designer created Mel C’s elegant ivory wedding gown and also lent her a dress for the Australian ceremony after a last-minute fitting issue. The Posh Spice later customized the Lake District dress with vintage lace details and delicate hand-finished touches.
The “Northern Star” hitmaker was full of praise for her friend’s work, saying her designs are “really feminine, but in a way that feels comfortable, and very me.”
Mel C revealed several Spice Girls songs were played during the celebrations.
The luxury fashion entrepreneur was unable to attend because she was in New York with her husband, David Beckham, for the FIFA World Cup final. But Mel C said the iconic girl group stayed in constant contact throughout the celebrations.
“Of course she made my gorgeous dress, and she was messaging me on the day. And I actually saw her when I was in Ibiza,” the newlywed shared, adding, “So we had a little catch up. So yeah, we were giving her updates and sending her pictures.”
Looking back on the wedding, the 52-year-old performer described the entire weekend as “amazing” and “perfect,” revealing that “several” Spice Girls songs were played during the festivities.
