A woman has made her dreams come true by having a KFC-themed wedding and marrying the love of her life in Singapore. The couple met on a dating app earlier this year and went to the fast food restaurant for their first in-person date.

Laing Le Wong, 32, and her husband, Xie Peng, 40, hosted the unconventional wedding theme after tying the knot on Sunday. According to UNILAD, the couple only spent $2,300, including a KFC-only buffet and a fried chicken bouquet. Wong said she reached out to the company, hoping they would gift her a wedding present before the ceremony and they were happy to foot the bill after a manager learned about her disability.
She suffers from a disease that results in defective blood vessels in her brain, which took away her ability to walk. The company paid for half of her wedding food and provided decorations for the reception, which included a Zinger spicy chicken sandwich beanbag chair.

Wong thanked KFC for their hospitality and called her wedding day “memorable” in a Facebook post: “I had the KFC-themed wedding of my dreams!!! Really cool to have @kfc_sg as part of my special day making it a unique and super memorable day.
KFC Australia previously announced their wedding package for couples who want a similar style wedding for a set price.
“KFC is all about living your best life and we were flattered that so many of our fans are showing that Aussie larrikin spirit by asking us to be a part of their big day. Over the years we’ve seen some amazing Facebook comments and have heard of some incredible proposals from fans taking place in our restaurants in Australia and around the world. Seeing these we thought bucket, let’s create a KFC Wedding service! We think it’s important that this isn’t just a one-off affair and that as many of our fans have the chance to get a KFC Wedding – so we’re making this available for eight months as a genuine service for anyone living in Australia.”
