The special promo was announced last month.

Frankie & Benny’s celebrated Valentine’s Day by giving a free wedding to a lucky couple worth £10k.

In  January, the fast-casual restaurant announced the ‘With Love From Frankie’s’ event in which couples aiming to get married will have a chance to win a wedding package with a tailored ceremony for 20 of their closes friends and family.

After a lot of consideration, the winners were chosen and the lucky couple were Darren, 36, an ecologist from Chesterfield and Aneeka, 38, from Ashton-Under-Lyne who works at a secondary school.

The wedding reception was conducted at the Frankie & Benny’s restaurant located at Batley, Yorshire. Where the team decorated the venue in readiness for the Sunday wedding which included food, drink, a DJ, a photographer, a live band with a saxophonist as well as the special celebrity guest James Argent who acted as the officiant.

“We understand that with the current cost of living crisis it may be hard for couples and families to prioritise paying for a wedding when disposable income has become so squeezed. We were thrilled to help take that pressure off and throw an all-out wedding and reception, bringing families and friends together in true Frankies style!,” Sasha Storey, Frankie & Benny’s Head of Brand, said.
