Carrie Underwood had a spa at her wedding

The 27-year-old singer – who tied the knot with ice hockey player Mike Fisher in a lavish ceremony on Saturday (10.07.10) – wanted all her 200 guests at the Ritz Carlton Reynolds Plantation in Greensboro, Georgia, to feel comfortable before the ceremony and so ensured all the hotel's relaxation facilities, including a peaceful reading room, a pool and a manicurist, were available for them to use.

A source said: "Carrie really wanted to make sure that her guests had a great time and were pampered while they were here."

Carrie – who wore a Chantilly lace Monique Lhuillier gown – and Mike, 30, also ensured their menu appealed to all their guests, with catering having a "southern flavour".

One waiter at the bash revealed: "The wedding was gorgeous. The food had a Southern flavour and there were delicious cupcakes.

"There was a lot of eating and a lot of drinking. It was a big party!"

Despite the couple's wedding – which cost a rumoured $500,000 - being attended by celebrity guests including Simon Cowell, fellow revellers insist everyone was down to earth.

One guest told Us Weekly magazine: "No one had a trace of attitude... Everyone was super friendly.

"It wasn't one of those crazy weddings you hear about in Hollywood. It was a nice party for a nice couple."
