X Factor crew wrecked our wedding: Pair's reception is ruined by catering errors and starstruck guests

It should have been the perfect wedding in every way. The five-star country estate in leafy Hertfordshire had been booked for 18 months and bride Kelly Filistad had spared no expense.

But Kelly had not planned for the presence of The X Factor, which was filming scenes in the hotel on her big day in August.

Guests were served the wrong food, a wedding cake went missing, the DJ played the wrong track for the couple’s first dance and, instead of toasting the newlyweds, guests wandered off to find the ITV show’s judges.

Overshadowed: Kelly and Rob Filistad with X Factor judge Tulisa Contostavlos, before the presence of the ITV show”s cast and crew took the shine off their big day

Shattered hopes: The couple chose The Grove hotel in Hertfordshire as their dream wedding location – only for staff to be distracted by the filming

Consolation prize: The hotel offered a photograph with head judge Gary Barlow
