No high society nuptials will pass muster with the social set if there isn't a full weekend of partying, and guests at Lady Kitty's Spencer's wedding to fashion tycoon Michael Lewis were treated to another day of festivities in Rome yesterday to round off the celebrations.
Glamorous attendees including Lady Emma Weymouth, singer Pixie Lott, designer Jade Holland Cooper and her husband Superdry founder Julian Dunkerton were spotted donning their finery - much of it by Dolce & Gabbana, of course - for a post-wedding lunch at Villa Aurelia where they toasted the newlyweds Kitty, 30, and Michael, 62, again with a backdrop of panoramic views of Rome.
The £20,000-a-day 17th century Roman villa is a popular spot with high society brides, with designer Misha Nonoo and oil heir Mikey Hess tying the knot there in September 2019, with Prince Harry, Meghan Markle and Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie in attendance.
After dining in the garden of the baroque villa and vineyard once owned Pope Paolo III that sits on one of Rome's seven hills and enjoys extraordinary panoramic views of the Eternal City, Kitty and Michael's guests danced to Italian music from the 1950s, played by a live orchestra.

On her big day on Saturday, Lady Kitty, daughter of Earl Spencer and his first wife Victoria Lockwood, dazzled in a series of gowns all made for her by fashion house, while the Italian duo also dressed many of her glamorous attendees.
Kitty was escorted at the ceremony, held in the gardens of the Villa Aldobrandini – a stunning mansion in Frascati, near Rome – by her brother Louis Spencer, Viscount Althorp, and half-brother Samuel Aitken, whose father is businessman Jonathan Aitken. However there was also no sign at the festivities, which spanned several days, of her father, nor Kitty's cousins Princes William or Harry, whose weddings in 2011 and 2018 she attended.
Kitty is believed to have left the villa around 12.30 today to enjoy lunch with her mother and sisters. Guests including Pixie Lott and her boyfriend Oliver Cheshire, were spotted leaving the Eden Hotel - which is part of the Dorchester group - to head to Villa Aurelia for a celebratory lunch.
Also understood to have been present were the groom's three grown-up
