NextImg:I had the KFC-themed wedding of my dreams — with a fried chicken bouquet and all

She totally chickened out on her big day. 

Something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue be damned — this bird-hungry bride wanted something finger-lickin’ good to punctuate her nuptials. 

And the brunette’s extra crispy vision became a $2,300 reality — coming complete with a deep-fried bouquet and an all-poultry buffet.   

“I had the KFC-themed wedding of my dreams!!!” gushed wheelchair-bound newlywed Laing Le Wong, 32, of Singapore, in a buzzy Facebook post, featuring her Kentucky Fried Chicken-inspired fête.  

“Really cool to have @KFC_SG as part of my special day,” said the blushing bride, who exchanged vows with hubby Xie Peng, 40, on Nov. 26, adding, “Making it a unique and super memorable day.”

Ahead of her deliciously decked-out wedding, Wong, an unflinching KFC fanatic, reportedly emailed the chicken shack, hoping that the company would gift her a cutesy souvenir in celebration of her tying the knot.

But when the restaurant learned of Wong’s disability — defective blood vessels in her brain that have diminished her ability to walk — a local manager decided to do more than simply send a simple tchotchke, per Shin Min Daily News

The fast-food joint footed the bill for half of the wedding food and provided the fowl-festive decorations for the reception — including a beanbag chair fashioned into a life-size Zinger spicy chicken sandwich. 

With Colonel Sanders’ signature 11 herbs and spices sprinkled throughout the venue, Wong and Peng, who had their first in-person date at KFC after meeting on a dating app earlier this year, clucked the night away at their cock-a-doodle-do hullabaloo. 

Online, Wong even shared footage of herself tossing her bouquet of crunchy drumsticks to a squawking-happy guest. 

The lovebirds commemorated their savory shindig with snapshots taken in front of a red and white photo backdrop inked with the greasy spoon’s logo: “it’s finger lickin’ good.” 

And they’re not the only fast-foodies to make their favorite comfort snack the pièce de résistance of their “I do’s.”

French sweeties Ophélie and Thomas Billaudeau infamously toasted their union with hamburgers and French fries from McDonald’s during their September 2023 ceremony. 

And a Taiwanese couple spent a measly $800 on unfussy bites by catering their wedding reception through Costco’s deli department.

The pennywise pair offered guests ham and cheese sandwiches on croissants, grapes and cheese, as well as fountains of sweet raspberry tea and lemonade. The inexpensive spread scored more than 400,000 likes from impressed scrollers on Facebook. 

“Y’all did such an amazing job,” raved a food fan.
