A couple who are getting married on Saturday say they are leaning into the wedding’s World Cup clash by screening England’s quarter-final match against Norway next to the dancefloor.
Georgia Hallgalley and Jake Hawker say they will have a projector showing the football at their wedding reception in Guildford to avoid guests missing out on the big game.
Georgia, from Frimley, said it was “either that or have people watching it on their phones”, adding it would be “fantastic if England win”.
The bride-to-be said: “We are a football-mad family on both sides – it can’t not be on really.”
She added: “When I woke up on Monday and realised it was going to clash there was a little bit of dread, but I have come around to it.”
Jake, a keen footballer who spent time in the US playing the sport, said he noticed the potential clash shortly after the fixtures were released and he was plotting England’s route to the final.
