A Florida couple hoped to have their dream wedding on the grounds of a beautiful multimillion-dollar mansion with a tennis court, gazebo, and pool with a waterfall.
The only problem was that they never told the owner of the house about their plans.
Courtney Wilson and Shenita Jones had invited their entire family to the wedding at their “ dream home and estate, ” which turned out to be a palatial estate they did not own and reportedly did not rent in the upscale Florida suburb of Southwest Ranches, the South Florida reported. Sun Sentinel Wednesday.
The 16,300-square-foot mansion, which is on the market for $ 5.6 million, is not a wedding factory. It features a bowling alley, 15 bathrooms, a home cinema and a 800 square meter bar.
In their online wedding invitation, Wilson and Jones called themselves ‘the royals’ and promised a reception with a ‘red carpet cocktail hour’ on Saturday, followed by brunch on Sunday.
But when Wilson showed up on Saturday morning to set himself up, he shocked the homeowner, who claims he never gave them permission to have their wedding there.
“I have people entering my property,” Nathan Finkel told an emergency center, the point of sale reported.
And they keep bothering me by calling me. They say they’re having a wedding here and it’s God’s message. I don’t know what’s going on. All I want is to quit. And they are now on my property at the front gate. “
When officers arrived, they ordered Wilson to leave and he obeyed, the outlet reported.
“I don’t want to talk about it,” Wilson told the episode newspaper.
Finkel, whose late father was an early IHOP restaurant franchisee, has sought to sell the palatial estate for just over $ 5 million.
Keith Poliakoff, attorney for the Southwest Ranches suburb, said Wilson previously toured the estate posing as a potential buyer.
“The man thought it was an empty house and did not know that Nathan lived on the property in another house,” Poliakoff said. This man had no idea he lived there. Do you know the shock that must have been on his face when he appeared at the gate and the owner was home? “
