A gutted dad missed his son's wedding after suffering a life-threatening allergic reaction - because he was allegedly given the "wrong meal" by staff at the venue. Andrew Hunneybel, 51, was looking forward to celebrating his eldest lad Alex tying the knot at Gaynes Park, Essex, on August 7.
But, during lunch, he claims he was served with a meal containing egg and fish - which he is allergic to. Andrew says he was left struggling to breathe and had to use an EpiPen before an ambulance was called and he was rushed to hospital.
This meant he missed out on the rest of his son’s £14,000 wedding day, including the first dance and speeches. Venue Catering and Events Limited, which catered the event, said a probe had been launched.
