“I’d like a cheeseburger and fries.”
“Ok that’ll be 4.99”
“Oh, wait, I also need a wedding package for 100 people. Cake included.”
“Ok, your total comes to $1,280. Please pull up to the first window.”
LMAO! Can you imagine? I dunno, I just can’t get past the cheesiness of it but I guess there’s a wedding for everyone. Even Ronald McDonald.
In January McDonald’s started offering wedding packages in Hong Kong. For $1,282 you can get invitations with golden arches on them, wedding gifts, decorations featuring Ronald and Hamburgerlar and a cake made out of stacked apple pies. Toasts are made with sundaes and shakes and enough food to feed your guests. For a little extra you can even rent a gown.
I get wanting your wedding to take place in a McDonald’s restaraunt, (maybe that’s where you met and fell in love) but I just don’t get wanting all the Mickey D’s accouterments. But maybe that’s just me. The NY Times reported on the situation and they found a couple who purchased a McDonald’s wedding package. Go fig!
I’d be delighted to attend a wedding at McDonalds, as long as french fries were served!
Met you through A-Z Challenge. My blog is http://www.betterthanordinry.blogspot.com
I can totally see this being a trend in Japan. I lived there for a year and they think this sort of thing is a hoot.
I guess it beats the drive-through Elvis weddings in Vegas.

Its interesting how everyone has a different reaction. lol. Thanks all for reading.
I love this idea. My wedding would not be complete without Happy Meals!! 🙂
I’m blogging through the A to Z Challenge too:

I think for younger people who want a “fun” wedding, this would be an affordable wedding to have (compared to the tens of thousands spent on some!) Overseas, it’s the perfect iconic symbolic American wedding!

I hadn’t heard of this. It makes me chuckle just a bit. To each his own, I suppose.
I just can’t imagine having a wedding at McDonalds. I know people have weddings and get restaurants to cater in, and that’s fine, but hamburgers! That’s just too trashy for me.
Lol, I just can’t imagine McDonalds having any place in a wedding, even if the couple met there!
My husband apparently stopped by McD’s in his tux with the best man in the limo on his way to our wedding… your post reminded me of this little gem.
