The star-studded ceremony was followed by a reception at a plush hotel, the Mirror reports.
It has been reported that during his speech Ant said: "When Anne-Marie walked into the church, I had to fight to hold it together as she looked so beautiful."
During the ceremony Anne-Marie's two daughters, who she had with first husband Scott, did readings, it has also been reported.
One of the readings was said to be the Richard Bach poem The Bridge Across The River, which is about soulmates.
Ant's best man and long-term showbiz partner Declan Donnelly also said a prayer and did a reading, calling the groom the "best friend a man could have".
The three-tied wedding cake is said to have included models of the couple's beloved dogs.
Ant and Anne-Marie have been together since 2018 and got engaged on Christmas Eve last year when Ant proposed.
Wedding guests included David Walliams, Saturday Night Takeaway's Stephen Mulhern, Cat Deeley and her husband Patrick Kielty.
Other guests included their longtime pal Dermot O'Leary and his partner Dee Koppang, Alesha Dixon and Frank and Christine Lampard.
Attendees did not know the location of the nuptials until the big day as the couple attempted to keep the location of a secret.
