Vicky Entwistle (Janice Battersby), Claire King (Erica Holroyd), and Kym Marsh (Michelle Connor) also attended the ceremony held at Shrigley Hall Hotel & Spa in Macclesfield, Cheshire.
Alison King, who plays Carla Connor on Corrie, was Debbie's bridesmaid and TV presenter Eamonn Holmes officiated the ceremony.
Charlie told OK! Magazine : "We actually legally got married at Macclesfield Registration Office two weeks before the proper wedding, with just three witnesses, so Eamonn could do the service."
Speaking about seeing Debbie walking down the aisle, he added: "When you've been in love with someone for so long - 22 years - there's still that excitement of waiting to see her, and Debbie looked extraordinary and very beautiful.
"It was a wonderful moment when she walked down the aisle. I shed a tear."
Debbie revealed she had asked actress Alison to be her bridesmaid just one month prior to the day after going out for drinks, adding that the pair are "very, very close."
Meanwhile, Charlie was keen for Eamonn Holmes to be part of his big day due to their close friendship, explaining that they are "very similar human beings".
Charlie was conscious of Eamonn's recent issues with his health, including chronic pain, but is delighted he could play a special role on his wedding day.
He added to OK!: "I couldn't think of anyone better to oversee our wedding.
"I'm also terribly aware that Eamonn has had a tough time with his health over the past couple of years, and I felt this would give him a bit of a lift.
"It transpired he was quite nervous about the whole thing, but he's messaged us since and said it was one of the best days he's ever had because everyone was very kind to him."
