A young bride and groom were horrified when they realised that their 52 strong wedding party would be left to go hungry when the caterers that they had booked for their reception failed to materialise.
Chef James Kirkby, 24 and his new bride Hannah, 21 assumed that their big day was destined to end in shambles when they arrived at their local village hall in Martinstown, Weymouth for their reception to find it empty - not a morsel of food or a single caterer in sight.
The mortified Mother of the bride made a number of frantic calls to nearby pubs and restaurants without any success. Fortunately, after a number of failed attempts she managed to source a Fish & Chip Shop nearby willing to supply a whopping 52 portions of fish and chips.
.
The SOS call was received at the Marlboro Restaurant & Fish and Chip Shop where owner Mike Johnson saved the day and delivered the meals to the wedding party within an hour.
Mother of the bride Katy Phillips said:-
“We had these giant gold charger plates so we had the fish and chips in their papers on those. Everyone really enjoyed it and got into the spirit of things, the ushers were there handing all the food out. We were nearly left with a lot of hungry guests but it was quite funny in the end. James and Hannah had a lovely day.”
The happy couple had to shell out £200 for the emergency order but have since deemed it worth every single penny for the most memorable fish supper that they’ll ever have!
