Wedding Party at McDonald’s?!

I like McDonald’s, especially their Quarter Pounder hamburger.
Actually my husband and I go there at least once in 2 weeks to have lunch.
One day I read a funny article about this company. Have you ever heard of that?

McDonald’s Slated to Offer Ultra-Cheap McWeddings

I am not sure when McDonald's started to offer this Ultra Cheap Mc Weddings promos, but I think they launched it early this year. According to the article the idea was taken from  regular customers of  McDonalds who dated at their Hong Kong branch and they wanted to make their wedding ceremony at McDonalds. Since then the number of inquiries increased.
Well, what is "McDonald’s wedding party" like?


This wedding package includes a personalized menu, decorations, McDonald’s-themed gifts, a special apple-pie wedding cake, and a fry in place of the traditional cherry witch a couple shares prior to kissing. Then, it offers only HK$1000 ($129 or \1,00,000). The typical price of Hong Kong wedding is HK$10,000 or $1,300. Therefore you can save a lot, so it is good for the couple which don't have enough money to hold their wedding party at, ex, hotel, church.  
However, this wedding doesn't have any privacies. It means during your party, customers walk into to have their meal as usual, so it doesn't suit to shy couple. Furthermore, McDonald’s never serves any liquor or beer, so it is hard to a person who likes his drinks.


Although there are such cons, this ultra-cheap ceremony is very attractive for many people. Surely, it is far from romantic ceremony, but after saving much money by this you can pour your money into other things, for instance, honeymoon or new house! I wish McDonald’s started this business in Japan also! ...Oh but, I think a very big hamburger is more suitable as a wedding cake than the idea of an apple-pie cake!
