It's been a slow burning romance that has warmed the hearts of Downton Abbey fans.

But finally making their courtship official, Mr Carson and Mrs Hughes will tie the knot in Sunday's episode of the popular ITV drama.

Dressed in a mauve ensemble, the head housekeeper looked as elegant as ever while her besotted new husband beamed from ear to ear.

And the bride wore mauve! Downton Abbey's Mr Carson and Mrs Hughes will wed in Sunday night's episode

Besotted: The butler and the head housekeeper made for a dapper couple as they posed for pictures

The beautiful wedding ceremony, which was held in a church, saw the couple say their vows in front of family members and friends.

With all eye on her, Mrs Hughes, portrayed by Phyllis Logan, looked lovely in a heavily sequinned velvet coat teamed with a lavender dress and blue shoes as she wore a hat beautified with lace.

Meanwhile Mr Carson was dapper in a three piece grey suit, white shirt and spotted blue tie alongside a pair of perfectly polished black brogues.

At last: The pair have enjoyed a slow burning romance that has warmed the hearts of Downton Abbey fans

Dowager Countess of Grantham (Violet Crawley), Dr Clarkson, Lady Mary Crawley and Lady Edith Crawley all in tow to support the union as they took to the pews in the church.

Meanwhile employees of The Crawley household, Gladys Denker, Daisy Mason and Joseph Molesley also featured in the wedding album.

Doing all in his power to make sure Mrs Hughes is happy, the choice of location for their big day came after his better half refused to be wed on the Downton estate.

Beautiful: The interior of the church featured large stain glassed windows and was decorated with flowers

However hapless Downton Abbey bosses may have blown the show's ending for fans, after a wedding order of service was found by a member of the public in Bampton, Oxfordshire.

The show, which is two episodes into its final series, is set to conclude with several weddings before it comes to an end later this year - minus that of Carson and Hughes.

The pamphlet included the names of those walking down the aisle, the prayers, hymns and the vows, although MailOnline will not be revealing the identity of the bride and groom.

A source told The Sun: 'As it's the last one, there are going to be some absolutely massive plot lines. One of them is this wedding.

'It seems a bit ridiculous that all those security measures could be put in place and then someone just leaves an order of service lying around for anyone to find.'
