Couples will be able to get married at McDonald's restaurants in Hong Kong from next year.

McDonald's says it has decided to offer the service because of public demand.

The idea first came about after one couple, who met at a McDonald's, held their wedding reception at a branch in Hong Kong earlier this year.

Helen Cheung, Hong Kong McDonald's director of corporate communications, said: "Over the past two years, we've started receiving calls from people who want to have a wedding party in our restaurants. There are about 10 calls a month. People said they'd dated here, or met here, and wanted to get married here. We see this as a business opportunity."
