He may be nudging 70, but Sir Paul McCartney showed he could still party like a teenager – by playing his music so loud neighbours called the council noise team.
With the former Beatle, his new wife Nancy Shevell and their guests still enjoying post-wedding celebrations at 1.30am, residents in his quiet north London street took action.
But there was no tense confrontation when officials arrived and asked him to turn the volume down.
Shady people: Sir Paul McCartney and his new wife, Nancy, emerged from their St John's Wood home hiding tired eyes
Sir Paul happily complied – and the party continued for another hour and a half.
The star, 69, hosted the festivities in a huge marquee in the garden of his £8million St John’s Wood mansion.
Happily hungover? Heiress Nancy Shevell was grinning from ear to ear as stepped out with her new husband
Fresh faced: the pair looked surprisingly well considering the last of their guests left their home at 3am yesterday morning
Thumbs up: Heiress Nancy looked extremely happy regardless of the fact that their party was interrupted by a neighbour's complaint
He and his 51-year-old bride danced to Beyoncé’s Crazy in Love, Amy Winehouse’s hit Valerie and The Beatles’ own Paperback Writer.
Sir Paul later performed Ticket to Ride and Let It Be.
But as DJ Mark Ronson took to the turntables, two officers from Westminster council arrived.
They had the power to shut the party down and seize the music equipment and speakers if Sir Paul refused to co-operate.
Last to leave: Kate Moss, left, stayed out until 3am while Mary McCartney, right, also had a late night
But one of the officers said: ‘We’ve had complaints about the noise but it’s okay now.’ The marquee had been decked out in a ‘woodland fairytale’ theme, according to a friend.
Rock-and-roll legends such as Sir Paul’s former bandmate Ringo Starr and Pink Floyd guitarist Dave Gilmour rubbed shoulders with the cream of London’s fashion and art crowd.
Guests tucked into a vegan feast and non-vintage Dumangin Grande Reserve champagne at £26.50 a bottle.
Family: Stella McCartney and her husband Alasdhair Willis leave the party
Bandmate: Ringo Starr and his wife Barbara seen going home
The newlyweds then had their first dance to a song Sir Paul had composed and recorded for his bride, entitled My Valentine.
His brother Mike McCartney, 67, said: ‘There was a lovely song that our kid did and they had a lovely dance together, so that was a nice little highlight of the evening.’
Unsurprisingly, Kate Moss, 37, and Rolling Stone Ronnie Wood, 64, were the last to leave at 3am.
Child: Paul's son James McCartney gives a thumbs up as he heads outside
The party followed a low-key ceremony at the Marylebone Register Office on Sunday, which saw just 30 close friends and family members invited, including Sir Paul’s children from his first marriage to Linda – Mary, Stella and James.
Third time lucky: Sir Paul married his new wife at the Old Marylebone Town Hall yesterday afternoon
