Only in Hong Kong would you find the introduction of the McWedding. It is exactly as it sounds, a wedding held at a McDonald's restaurant and apparently it is quite popular. Beginning in January, McDonald's locations in Hong Kong will be offering wedding packages complete with a wedding cake made of apple pies and Happy Meal toy favours.
The wedding package costs around £250 and includes a ceremony and reception for 100 guests. There are two stipulations to the McWedding: no alcohol and business will continue as before, so have no exclusivity. A wedding a few fast-food emerged in the United States in recent years, but this is the first time a fast food restaurant has actively offered as a venue for weddings.
Surprisingly, there is a market for McWeddings. Helen Cheung Yuen-Ling, Director of Corporate Communications at McDonald's in Hong Kong, said the South China Morning Post had flooded with calls fromfast-food fanatics who can not wait until they tie the knot at their favorite fast food restaurant. Perhaps these couples met at McDonald's or old fashioned, but suggested another reason is the lack of social mobility and income declining among young people in Hong Kong.
Perhaps these couples are to have such a thing. In a world where many couples are between paying for their wedding and a deposit of sounds to choose their first home, a £ 250 wedding for 100 people well enough. Or maybe your wedding dayshould be your dream come true....and for these couples it is both. I'm not suggesting we all go get married at our local McDonald's but maybe it's time to be a little more creative in order to keep costs from spiraling out of control. I love the challenge of saving couples money on their wedding and often you don't even have to sacrifice that much. Maybe McDonald's isn't for you, but the Chinese are lovin' it!
