According to Fiona, she tried calling the venue owners to explain that her husband had passed and would no longer be needing to hire the place - and they were less than understanding, a Mirror article reports.
Meanwhile, East Coast Radio reports that Fiona's friends have since gone on to start a crowdfunding campaign to help her raise money to cover the cost of the wedding since the venue refuses to offer any sympathy.

Instead of spending all their money of a wedding ceremony, @PullMyy_Dreadzz and her hubby decided to pay for her to get an education.
"So yesterday I married my best friend. We were going to have a huge wedding but decided to do something with just us .Instead of a expensive wedding we decided to use the money to put me through school to become a RN. Why invest in a moment when we can invest in our future. #Love" she captioned the post.
