Fair to say, they went a bit Peperami
A loved-up, Peperami-obsessed couple went a bit extra on their big day – by having their entire wedding themed on their favourite meat snack.
Luke Hindmarch and Francesca Brooke-Fenton tied the knot with a lavish outdoor ceremony this weekend, but the dress, decorations and cake were slightly more, shall we say, unconventional.
The couple decided to use their favourite snack to spice the occasion up, and they certainly didn’t do things by half measures.
The bride’s dress had a green Peperami train and the cake was even based on the ‘Animal’, who has been the face of the brand since the early 1990s.
Pavan Chandra, a spokesperson for Peperami, said: “It was possibly the most outrageous wedding of the year, with the lucky couple having the ultimate celebration which will certainly stand out from the crowd.”
New research has revealed that themed weddings are on the rise, with four in 10 people saying they have attended a ceremony with a theme such as Lord of the Rings or Disney, and 21 per cent have been served takeaway food at the reception.
Quirky costumes, bizarre cakes and over-the-top dresses are also becoming the latest trends to hit the wedding scene.
It also emerged 29 per cent would like a ‘fantasy wedding’, including the likes Alice in Wonderland, Game of Thrones or Star Trek, while 23 per cent would opt for a fast-food theme, with KFC, Pizza Hut, Subway, and McDonalds taking centre stage.
Pavan Chandra, from meat snacking brand Peperami, said: “As the summer months continue to be crowded with weddings, many of us find it a bit dull to attend these formulaic ceremonies, so it’s no wonder a theme would make it a more memorable and an enjoyable day.
“While weddings are centred around the bride and groom; they are also about giving their guests an exciting, unforgettable, and entertaining wedding experience, sharing their big day with their loved ones.
“The research has shown there’s certainly an appetite for something a bit more unique and expressive of the couple’s personality.”
