I can not believe what I have just seen, heard, read.

Hallam Fm are doing the 5 brides 1 wedding competion for a couple to win a £25,000 wedding. 5 couples had been selected to raise as much money as they could for cash for Kids and the couple who raised the most wins.

BUT this has now been put on hold.

Due to couple number 5 having to pull out. THe bride is currently in hospital after being stabbed by her fiance.

what do people think of this? is it fair on the other brides?

report is here

I can't see couple number 5 winning the prize now.

Not fair on the other brides, no, but not fair on bride number 5 either!

In all fairness should bride 5 now be even getting married?

Are Hallam FM not reporting this on their news?
I've got Hallam on today, and haven't heard this

On hold with plans to continue with the remaining 4 couples next week.

Hallam FM’s 5 Brides 1 Wedding has been put on hold following an incident that’s been brought to our attention.

One of the couples has had to withdraw from the contest. It’s our intention is to bring the competition back next week with the remaining four couples, if this is appropriate in light of the incident.

We’d just like to reassure you that all the money raised throughout the competition will still go directly to the Cash For Kids charity, and we would like to thank everyone involved for their support of the couples and Hallam FM – it’s very much appreciated.

They've mentioned it is being delayed due to an 'incident' about half a dozen times today, but never said what the incident was.

I'm obviously not paying enough attention ;)

Anyone know why one couple has been eliminated?

Thanks

The woman was stabbed by her fiance. (Allegedly - so it has been reported.)

Edit............post makes no sense now threads are merged

Anybody know why anyone would listen to that excuse for a radio station?

They have now decided today that the other 4 couples are carrying on with the fundraising this week and the deadline will now still be the same. Not heard nothing about the bride though .

I didn't believe it until I saw the photo.

They can still get married in church as long as they're heterosexual. Gays aren't welcome but knife-wielding maniacs are.

well we find out tomorrow which of the 4 remaining couples win

I'm sure what everyone meant is- 'I hope the girl is OK'

What an inconvenience to a competition, when one of the contestants is stabbed by her beloved.

I'm sure the other contestants would want a bit of time to get over the shock too.

Agreed, nice to see people on here wishing her well! :rolleyes: Let's hope she is ok.
