Wedding couple have fun on rides
October 3, 2023
A
wedding couple decided to inject a bit of extra fun into their marriage
celebrations with a visit to Clacton Pier.
Jack
and Courtney O’Leary tied the knot at the Princes Theatre in Station Road
before the party of 80 guests walked through the town and down to the seafront
attraction.
Once
there, they went on the Big Wheel, dodgems, and had a round of adventure golf,
as well as enjoying some drinks and chips in the Boardwalk Bar.
About
three hours later they made their way back to the theatre in the Town Hall for
their evening reception.
The
couple, who live in Chelmsford, had been looking for a theatrical venue and
felt the Princes hit just the right note.
“As
we were coming to the seaside for the wedding we thought it would be great for
everyone to go down to the pier to enjoy some of the rides,” said Courtney.
“It
was a beautiful sunny day and we all had a good time and were well looked
after.”
Nigel Brown, Clacton Pier’s communications manager, said it was a bit of
a different request but everything went well.
“We put together a special price for the attractions they requested and
they all seemed to enjoy themselves,” he added.
“We were delighted to host them for part of their wedding celebrations
and help make it a very special day.”
