GET MARRIED FOR UNDER 200 QUID

COUPLES can now say “I do” for the knockdown price of £199.

Budget hotel chain Premier Inn is offering an entire wedding package at a fraction of the usual cost.

Brides will get a dress, a cake and confetti and can finish the day off with a two-night stay in the hotel’s honeymoon suite.

The wedding package is thought to be the cheapest ever for the entire deal.

There is a plain, ivory strapless gown for the bride, a suit for the groom and cake for 20 people.

Staff will then dish out sandwiches and dips as well as one drink for every guest.

Struggling best men will even get a speech template to help them.

The offer comes in the wake of news that the average Brit now spends £21,089 on their nuptials.

Premier Inn spokesman Steve Conway said: “A wedding day doesn’t need to cost a fortune for it to be special.

“We hope that our bargain wedding package will help couples to have an enjoyable, romantic, stress-free day and a
honeymoon that won’t break the bank.”

Lee Roberts, 30, and Kelly Smith, 28, of London, are planning to get hitched in November, but said they were worried about the cost.

Kelly said: “I was so excited when Lee asked me to marry him, but I worried about having to spend so much money.

“This deal sounds amazing – just £199 and you get almost everything thrown in.”

The offer is available at a handful of Premier Inn’s 590 hotels, including Sheffield and Wigan.
