Uninvited guests are not normally welcome at a wedding but when Prince Charles showed up unannounced at this couple’s union, they couldn’t turn him away.
The Royal stumbled upon the nuptials of Private Barry Rooney, 28, and his new wife Kirstie, 22, while he was in Ayr for a parade by the Queen’s Own Yeomanry.

The newlyweds had just finished saying their vows at the Town Hall when they spotted the Prince of Wales who was leaving a civic reception.

He congratulated the couple from Patna in East Ayrshire and posed for pictures with them.
‘That was absolutely amazing, we were really shocked,’ they said. ‘Who can say they had their wedding photograph taken with the Prince of Wales?
‘It’s a day we’ll remember forever.’
