When one couple’s wedding was canceled at the last minute due to the coronavirus outbreak, they turned to a king.
Burger King.
A couple from England had their wedding plans upended when their venue closed only a few hours before the wedding, leaving them with almost no options. Fortunately, they were still able to exchange rings, even if they were onion rings.
Adam Woods and Laura Acton say that after their wedding was canceled hours before it was set to begin because of the coronavirus outbreak, they ended up exchanging onion rings at a Burger King instead.

According to the Sun, Acton said, “We hadn’t eaten anything since Friday night because we felt so sick, so we stopped off at Burger King on the way to Liverpool. Adam ordered some onion rings and when he came back to the car, he told me to put them on and said we can still exchange rings. You just had to laugh. We can still laugh through this as we have each other. If you sit and cry the whole time, you’re only going to make yourself feel worse.”
