"I found out my fiancé cheated and went ahead with £35k wedding without a groom"

A bride who found out her fiancé had cheated on her went ahead with the £35,000 wedding - without a groom.

Lindsay Slater, 31, says she discovered her fiancé and partner of 12 years, 36, had slept with someone else.

She says she confronted him and he left the family home and distraught Lindsay cancelled their upcoming ceremony.

But she decided to turn the rest of their big day into a party - as a "celebration of freedom."

Lindsay messaged all their day guests to break the news - and posted a Facebook status to inform the evening guests.

Around 60 to 70 guests came to the reception - which consisted of a sit down meal, speeches, and a party fronted by a DJ and bongo players.
