Woman advertises for a wedding date on Twitter

Fate โ€“ thatโ€™s the only way to describe what happened to Llia Apostolou, a single girl who faced the prospect of attending her sisterโ€™s wedding without a plus one. That is until she decided to advertise the position on Twitter โ€“ and actually had some genuine applicants.

One of those being Phil Gibson, a delightful gentlemen who was only too happy to take up Lliaโ€™s offer and could even provide his own suit.

The two hit it off immediately and engaged in a round of public flirting, much to the enjoyment of the Twittersphere who could not have been more on board with this budding romanceโ€ฆ

Although the chemistry was clearly electric from the get-go, sadly Phil did not attend the wedding with Llia because, well, it was her sisterโ€™s big day and that would have been a little awkward to explain why a stranger was in attendance. However, the two did meet up the week and sparks clearly flew in real life, just as much as they did behind a keyboard.

Fast forward three years and Llia finally got to see Philโ€™s suit, with the couple tying the knot.
