A considerable presence of journalists and photographers also waited for several hours before the newlyweds finally emerged. The wedding party spent more than an hour inside the venue before emerging on the steps of the building. The couple then returned to their home in St John's Wood for a reception with family and close friends. 'Going to last' Earlier this month Ms Shevell moved in with Sir Paul at his London home. Ms Shevell, who was married for 20 years to American lawyer and political candidate Bruce Blakeman, became engaged to Sir Paul in May. The couple began dating four years ago in the upmarket Hamptons area of Long Island. Life-long Beatles fan Chiara Amato said she had sat outside the register office every day since September 29 in anticipation of the couple's wedding. She said: "This marriage is going to last. She seems to be really nice and deeply in love with him. I have been listening to The Beatles since I was six-years-old. I have been to see Sir Paul in concert 27 times."

Ms Shevell is a board member of New York's transportation authority and vice-president of her family haulage firm.

Ms Shevell told the New York Post she would "love" the couple to live in the US but she would "probably" move to England after the wedding.
