Brad Pitt Crashes Wedding In England, Guests Go 'Wild And Mental'

Abi Lingwood, 28, was celebrating her wedding with friends and family at a reception in the Stoke Park hotel in the U.K. on Sept. 13 when her groom, Daniel, 41, gave her some surprising news. "I was in the middle of having a dance with my friends when Daniel came and said, 'You need to come with me now.' I had no idea why and thought it was odd. He started dragging me away from our reception and when I asked why he said, 'Brad Pitt is in the bar.' I thought he was joking or that maybe our friends had got us a look-alike as a joke!" Said the bride to E! News.

Pitt was in town filming the World War II thriller "Fury" at the nearby Pinewood Studios and was at the hotel for a business meeting. The actor was "friendly," and agreed to take a photo with the happy couple. "I actually gasped and said to myself, 'Oh my god, it really is you!'" recalled Abi. "He congratulated us on our wedding said I looked great in my dress, shook our hands and said to pose for a picture. He was very accommodating,"

According to the newlyweds, who are spending their honeymoon in Dubai, Brad Pitt was with a group of men they didn't recognize, although someone pointed out to them that a guy looking an awful lot like Shia LaBeouf was also at the meeting. However, the group had to take their business upstairs, because once the word spread that the "Moneyball" actor was in the house, everyone wanted to catch a glimpse of him. "Lots of the girls went in search of Brad whilst their boyfriends/husbands looked on. A few managed to get a picture. After a few, he said, 'This is the last one, we are trying to have a meeting.'"

"The girls were going wild and mental, so Brad Pitt and the people he was with went upstairs to a room for their meeting," Lingwood said. "It has become more of a talking point than my wedding, but that is fine," she added, explaining that she doesn't consider him a wedding crasher, "to be fair, we crashed their meeting!"

Maybe celebrating a wedding on a Friday the 13th is not bad luck at all!
