    A Ukrainian bride whose family and friends cannot make it to her wedding in Britain has advertised for 'decent' guests to attend the ceremony in their place.

    She even needs a bridesmaid.

    The bride has posted an advert online saying that only her parents can be at her wedding in London and she needs 30 people to fill her side of the church.

    Advertisement I'm having a large mixed wedding of about 150 people. My partner has loads of family around to invite to the wedding,' said the ad on gumtree.com.

    'Unfortunately for me, my family are all in Ukraine so they all can't make it, only my mum and dad will be there. I need 30 decent people to represent me for the church wedding and you will get free reception tickets.

    'This includes free meals and dance - it could be just a time for you to relax and have fun.'

    The woman asks for would-be guests to send a picture of themselves and 'tell me a bit about you', adding: 'PS. I also need volunteers to be bridesmaid, groomsmen and ushers.'

    Defo the next AH meet me thinks!

    I thought the title said Wedding quests. Thought it was some sort of WOW wedding or something.

    I'll be the mother of the groom.

    Will happily sit there for the day with a face like thunder.

    Not much different than the usual Irish rent-a-crowd weddings where you invite people like neighbours and relatives you haven't seen for 20+ years.

    Just sent her a message there. If I get an invite I'm giving mine to a hobo, one who has terrible control of his bladder.
