Mel B did not expect her fellow Spice Girls to attend her wedding.

The UK singer, "Scary Spice," told the NY Post that she didn't know her girl group mates Emma Bunton and Mel C were attending her wedding until she saw them there.

She explained that her husband was in charge of the guest list, so she didn't know who had been invited.

While all the Spice Girls were invited, only Emma Burton and Mel C were able to attend.

"Everyone's doing their own thing," Mel B said about her fellow pop group members.

"They all sent me well-wishes and we had lovely FaceTimes, but I didn't expect any of them to turn up. So when they (Emma and Mel C) were there, I was like, 'Oh, wow!'"

She explained that she was overwhelmed with wedding planning, handing off the guest list to her partner to handle
