Dressed in a Hugo Boss cream linen suit, Richard, 65, boarded the Dartmouth Ferry to the wedding ceremony in Brixham, Devon, after staying at the four-star Dart Marina Hotel on Friday night.
Speaking to The Sun ahead of the nuptials, he said: “I’m a very lucky man, although feeling a bit nervous.
“We’re heading off to Canada for our honeymoon which is a bit different.
“Then it’s back to work for both of us in August and the start of the football season for me.
“People think I might be a bit long in the tooth now but I don’t care.”
A source told The Sun: “Richard and Lucie tried to keep the wedding as low-key as possible so decided to have it on a private estate.”
In the days leading up to the wedding, Richard and Lucie, 35, were spotted on social media wining and dining at the five-star Mandrake Hotel in West London.
The couple sent out “save the dates” in April to their guests on £45 bottles of personalised Veuve Clicquot champagne bottles with “formal invitation to follow”.

They first met when Richard moved to the Middle East to work for broadcaster beIN Sports with his long-time pal Andy Gray.
Lucie, who was best pals with his daughter Jemma, became embroiled in a secret fling with the presenter.
Cheated wife Julia told The Sun that the affair in 2016 had left their family “devastated”.
At the time Richard denied he had left her for Lucie.
He was sacked in disgrace from his £500,000-a-year job fronting Sky’s Premier League coverage in 2011 after making disparaging remarks about female referee Sian Massey-Ellis.
