Groom almost misses his own wedding!
A groom-to-be, Mark Lindsay almost changed tradition, by turning up late to walk down the aisle, rather than his beloved bride.
Instead, he was pacing up and down in front of his television as he anxiously watched his beloved Stags compete in the nail-biter Ranfurly Shield game. The New Zealand Rugby game finished at 4.15pm but he was supposed to be marrying his bride-to-be at 5pm and needed to travel a fair way to the venue. Ten minutes before the end of the game, his father turned the TV off but just as a late kick put the Stags in the lead. Mark then quickly went upstairs to catch the rest of the game in hope to see his team secure the shield.
Luckily his taxi driver managed to get the groom to the wedding ceremony just in time, to avoid sparks flying before the marriage had even started.
