Related: About this forumSouth Florida Couple Attempts to Hold Wedding at Mansion They Didn't Own
Courtney Wilson and Shenita Jones invited family and friends to their dream home and estate for their weekend wedding celebration: the ceremony Saturday, brunch on Sunday.
There was just one problem: The couple didn't own the 16,300-square-foot mansion and didn't have permission to use it.
The suburban Fort Lauderdale estate had everything: a bowling alley, swimming pool with a waterfall, hot tub, tennis courts, a gazebo and an 800-foot bar. Wilson said it was God's plan that the couple marry there.
But despite what the invitation inferred, the actual owner, Nathan Finkel, never gave them permission to hold the festivities there. He was stunned when Wilson showed up Saturday morning to set up and he called police.
