The priest: Adele took to Instagram on Tuesday to reveal she wed her 'two best friends' Alan Carr and his now-husband Paul Drayton in the garden of her LA home
Alan revealed Adele not only hosted his wedding to Paul but she actually conducted the ceremony.
The comedian told the story of his nuptials to stand-in hosts Emma Willis and Rylan Clark-Neal, after revealing the day before on The One Show that the Rolling In The Deep singer had played hostess to the event at her home in Los Angeles.
And adding an extra detail to the mix, the Chatty Man host revealed the singer got ordained so that she could perform the marriage itself.
Alan, who has known Adele since she was 19, confessed: 'Yeah, [it was] in January. We got married in Adele’s back garden, in LA. I’m not giving you any postcodes! She’s known me and Paul for ages.

'She said: "I want to do your special day. I want to do everything". She got ordained and she married us. She is the kindest, most sweetest. She flew us to Vegas to see Celine Dion sing. She [Adele] sang my first dance. It was the best day of my life.'
In the city of Los Angeles, you can become ordained via a quick and free online form with the Universal Life Church.
After the application is approved and a minister license is within possession, the individual will be eligible to officiate a wedding.
All that needs to be done is for the person officiating to contact the county where the ceremony is taking place and ask what documents they need to present.
Meanwhile, continuing to gush about the music star, Adele went on: 'She’s the loveliest person going. What you see is what you get. Simon her lovely partner [too].
'It was lovely. I just want to tell everyone. She won’t say because she’s so private. Flowers, three-course meal, she just planned it all. It was the best day of our life.'

Alan also told of what happened when they went to watch Celine together.
'We go to see Celine, there in the audience, in great seats. And there’s this gay in front shouting "Celine!". And I said to Adele "if he knew Adele was sitting behind me..."
'And she said: "Shall I whisper in his ear - Hello It's Me." We then got whisked away!'
Alan married Paul having been a couple for ten years and the pair enjoyed a romantic honeymoon in Mexico.
Speaking on The One Show on Monday, the Chatty Man host revealed that he had been friends with the chart-topper for years - having met her at the BRIT Awards in 2008.

First joking that he and Paul had 'scaled over the fence' while she was out, the comic went on to explain: 'We've known her for ages, and when we told her we were getting married she said "Can I please plan the whole day for you?"'
Divulging further details of the luxurious nuptials themselves, he added: 'She did it all her house. So we go in there, and there's a grand piano with a man playing Ordinary People.
'Then she sang with our first dance, it was absolutely amazing. I can never repay her, she's a one-off as we all know.'
Alan and Paul tied the knot after ten years of romance in January, and went on to honeymoon in Los Cabos in Mexico.

Insiders told The Sun at the time: 'Alan is eccentric but, when it came to his wedding, he wanted to keep it as private as possible', before a spokesperson for the star confirmed the news to the publication.
Alan took to Instagram to post a snap of the duo in Mexico - sharing a sweet image of the pair poking their heads out of a beach hut, and joking about the amount of food he had eaten while away.
He wrote in the caption: 'After 10 days of tacos and tequila this sadly is the only thing that fits me. Diet starts manana! #baja #mexico #lunchandjudy'.
A spokesperson for the star then told the publication: 'The couple are currently on honeymoon in Mexico and are planning a big celebration with all their family and friends back in the UK later this summer. They are both extremely happy.'

Happy days! Alan and Paul tied the knot after ten years of romance in January, before departing LA to honeymoon in Mexico
Back in 2016, the couple were on holiday in Indonesia when Paul popped the question. Alan thought he had had a dental accident while chowing down on his dessert - only to reveal his beau had hidden an engagement ring in the pudding.
He revealed he was excited about planning the big day, and hinted that he may enlist close pal Adele to be the wedding singer.
The star adds: 'I don’t know exactly what we’ll do... but a big old wedding and we’ll get Adele singing Someone Like You.'
However, it seems it wouldn't have been a tipsy affair as Alan revealed in his book ALANATOMY that Paul has struggled with alcoholism.
He said: 'I want to be there for him because he's the best thing that's happened to me and I've got to support him and everything.'

Talking about his demons, Alan admitted: 'To be honest, it was a tough year for my Paul. He had a few issues with alcohol, and a lot of the time that was because I was away so much.
'I was out there, working hard, earning the money, and I neglected my personal life, really, so I feel a little bit to blame for that.'
However, Alan is adamant he has no interest in becoming a dad, and neither does Paul.
Setting the record straight on whether he planned a family back in 2015, the funnyman quipped: 'I am so not broody. I don’t have a fatherly bone in my body. I struggle with two dogs, I forget to feed them sometimes, let alone a baby.
'Plus, everyone who has kids looks terrible. I see people and say, "Are you on crack?" and they’re like, ‘No, I’ve got two kids’. Paul luckily isn’t into kids either.'
