AMY WINEHOUSE is to have a second wedding to new husband Blake Fielder-Civil.

The singing sensation has never done things by halves and wants to keep her family happy after her whirlwind decision to tie the knot last week in Miami.

Amy flew in from the States yesterday to pick up the Ivor Novello award for Best Contemporary Song for hit track Rehab.

As I revealed, Amy’s shock wedding was a huge surprise to her parents.

And yesterday, in her first visit to the UK since the ceremony, she took dad Mitchell to the awards — and promised him the chance to walk her down the aisle.

Amy said: “I’m going to have another bash — I’ve just got to. My dad is OK about it now but I’ve got to do it again for him.

“This is the first time I’ve been home since the wedding but I’ve married the best man in the world.

“We did it for ourselves. It was for us but we’ll do another service for everyone else.

“I love Blake. I’m not having a honeymoon because every day is a honeymoon with him.”

To see Amy's new video shoot

Although it was a late decision, Amy admitted she’d had her BETSEY JOHNSON dress stashed away for the occasion.

The couple have been in America since the wedding, with Amy filming the video for her next single, Tears Dry On Their Own.

And the first thing newlywed Blake did upon landing back in England was pick up a copy of The Sun.

It’s good to see he’s got his priorities right. And it appeared Amy had hers right too — saying she fancied an impromptu hen do during her return to the UK.

She said: “I’ll see who’s around tonight. I only arrived 15 minutes before the awards so I didn’t even have time to get drunk. I’m up for it though.”

Yesterday’s award was the FIFTH Amy has picked up so far in 2007.

She’s won a South Bank Show gong for Best Pop, collected the British Female Solo Artist award at the Brits and was named Best British Music Act at the Elle Style Awards.


Rude about Robbie ... but Alex is not alone

On Monday she was honoured with the Musical Achievement award at the first ever Greatest Britons bash. Alongside all this success, she has managed to fit in the wedding too. How does she do it?

This is also Amy’s second Ivor Novello award, after winning the same category in 2004 with Stronger Than Me.

Meanwhile, ARCTIC MONKEYS frontman ALEX TURNER left his bandmates at home and took his mum to pick up the Album Award at the London ceremony.

The frontman revealed she was delighted when she spotted ROLF HARRIS at the star-studded bash.

Alex said: “She saw Rolf and was very excited. You might as well go home once you’ve seen Rolf.”

Alex also had a dig at ROBBIE WILLIAMS for his failure to win an Ivor Novello for the CD Rudebox — which I crowned The Worst Single In History on these pages.

When asked what he thought about Robbie’s awful song he couldn’t stop himself from laughing.

Well, I suppose that is the natural reaction.

Robbie was pipped to the International Hit Of The Year by MADONNA’s track Sorry.

Other winners included SIR ELTON JOHN and SCISSOR SISTERS for hit single I Don’t Feel Like Dancin’.

And if proof was needed that the Arctics have made it into the rock ’n’ roll elite, Elton offered Alex a lift home — in a helicopter.

Elton was heading up north for a gig after the awards and said: “If you need a lift, I’ve got a helicopter going back to Sheffield.”

Well, it’s certainly more glamorous than a Riot Van.
