Add The New York Post on Google Originally Published by: McDonald's newest menu item has fans begging for one discontinued favorite America's favorite fast-food chain named: McDonald's wins McDonald's executive reveals hacks to help customers pack more protein into meals A Northeast Ohio McDonald’s restaurant was transformed into a wedding venue last Saturday as two co-workers said “I do” in front of friends, family, fellow employees and the occasional customer.
“We had people trying to come in the lobby the whole time,” despite the dining room being closed to the public for the ceremony and reception, bride Jamie Callicoat, of Akron, Ohio, told Fox News Digital this week after marrying co-worker George Callicoat.
“I was handing out extra sauces to an actual customer in my wedding dress.”
Some customers made it to the kiosks inside to order, and the drive-thru remained open throughout the celebration. Everyone — including unsuspecting customers — “rolled with the punches,” Jamie said.
“It’s still work, if you’re there off the clock, on the clock, whatever,” she said. “We were there interrupting to have our personal wedding.”
The intimate ceremony has since gone viral online.
“Social media content surrounding the wedding has already generated more than 20 million impressions across Instagram and Facebook, with the story continuing to spread,” McDonald’s of Northeast Ohio said in a news release.
“We kind of figured it would get some attention, but this is just unreal,” Jamie said of the reaction.

Jamie is a manager at the McDonald’s where she wed George, the restaurant’s crew trainer.
The pair met through mutual friends at Cedar Point in Ohio in June 2025 and went on a few dates. When Jamie moved to Akron and began working at the McDonald’s in October 2025, George trained her.
Jamie said George’s personality drew her to him.
“We just get along very well,” she said. “I love everything about George. He’s a great guy.”
“I love everything about her,” George told Fox News Digital. “She is a wonderful person, very caring, very kind.”
The pair became engaged at Cedar Point and initially planned to get married there, too. Then a district manager jokingly suggested they tie the knot at the McDonald’s where they both work.
“We thought about it for a day or so and went back and were like, ‘Well, were you guys serious?'” Jamie recalled. “And one thing kind of led to another, and here we are.”
The celebration became a team effort, McDonald’s said in its news release.
“Crew members and managers came together to help make the couple’s wedding day special, providing dinner, a wedding cake and other touches for the celebration,” McDonald’s said. “Even the officiant had a McDonald’s connection: the husba…
