A Newcastle bride and groom have been left facing an 'awful' choice just days before their wedding after being told the incorrect guest limit for their venue.
Sharell Douglas, 24, is due to marry fiancé Ryan Williams, 31, at Newcastle’s Civic Centre this Saturday, 10 September. But the pair say that an error made on the paperwork from the venue has now threatened to spoil their big day as they now have to disinvite several friends and family members who were on the ceremony guest list.
The Walker couple booked their wedding back in November 2020, and were given documents by the Civic Centre to confirm the booking which stated that 70 people would be allowed in the venue’s Leazes Room. However, they have since been told that the room in fact has a capacity of 50 - and the pair say that this information was only given to them on Monday, 5 September, with less than a week to go before the wedding .
