A couple have made history by becoming the first to marry at Camp Bestival, the Bournemouth Echo has reported.
The ceremony of Elizabeth and Patrick Convery took place last weekend in the Courtyard Ceremony Room at Lulworth Castle.
The couple, who have been friends for 20 years and dated for two, tied the knot in front of family and friends on Saturday before they took to the Castle Stage at the festival.
The paper reports that Mrs Convery threw her bouquet into the crowd, while the couple's official wedding photographs were shared on the big screen at the main stage.
The pair are fans of the music festival and requested to have their wedding ceremony at the event.
Mr Convery explained: "We were originally going to get married in secret without anybody knowing, but we were coming to the festival with the kids anyway so we phoned and asked if there were any registry offices nearby and the idea came to get married here.
"It's been absolutely fantastic. And we've got thousands of guests – and we don't have to worry about feeding any of them."
His wife added: "We were quite nervous about going on the stage but we had a glass of prosecco and that helped."
Paul Pinnock, the castle and parks manager, confirmed the couple's ceremony was legal and binding, adding: "It's delightful. Everyone that's gone by and looked in to the ceremony has a huge smile on their face.
"I had a call from the happy couple asking if they could get married at the festival. I spoke to Rob Da Bank and he said of course.
"The ceremony is all legal and binding and forever. This is the real thing."
