The video caption read: ‘Looking for a cheap midnight snack alternative for your wedding? The Pot Noodle trolley went down a storm.’
Rushing to the comments section, several people praised the ‘brilliant’ concept – with some declaring they would be stealing it for own nuptials.
One person said: ‘I would absolutely demolish a few Piri Piri Chicken Pot Noodles on my wedding night.’

Another added: ‘Hope you provide bibs. I have never eaten a pot noddle without getting it down me.’
Someone else joked: ‘I hope you provided bibs.’
It comes after another couple were trolled for serving their guests McDonald’s during their big day.
Thomas Billaudeau, 27, and his wife, Ophélie, 25, from Paris, France, opted to serve the unconventional meal instead of forking out thousands on the traditional three course dinner for guests.

One person wrote: ‘Given the price of McDonald’s now it’s better to take a caterer and you’ll have quality as well.’
Another said: ‘Guys stop! it’s not a question of going to the wedding for the food. But McDonald’s, what?’
However the couple have since defended their decision to local media. They told reporters that they did it because ‘it was cheaper’ and wanted food everyone liked.
The bride, who works as a marketing assistant, told Le Parisien newspaper: ‘We looked at the price of some caterers but I am a fussy eater.
‘I was afraid that we were going to pay for something that we did not like. If you are going to pay, you may as well get something you like.’
Others defended the couple saying they thought it was better than splashing out thousands on one meal.
One person said: ‘I’d rather eat McDonald’s at my wedding than go into debt for 25 years for a wedding.’
Another said: ‘Finally, people who have the wedding they want to have without going into debt to show off. Be happy!’
Someone else said: ‘I love people, they don’t understand that a real marriage must reflect the image of the bride and groom, I think it’s good as long as they are happy.’
