A groom-to-be has launched an online poll to ask whether his bride should allow him to have the Champions League final screened - at their wedding reception.

Damien Hyde, 33, is due to tie the knot with his partner of five years Samantha O'Carroll, aged 31, on June 1 - the same day Liverpool go head to head with Tottenham Hotspur.

The poll can be found on Facebook and is called 'should my mrs allow me to watch the champions league final at wedding venu'.

The UEFA Champions League is an annual club football competition organised by the Union of European Football Associations and contested by top-division European clubs.

And this year these two British teams are set to play each other in Madrid at 8pm - exactly the same time the couple have booked their evening reception for 80 guests.

But when the parents-of-two, a nine-year-old daughter named Chloe and three-year-old daughter called Teagan, booked the date two years ago, Damien "never dreamed" it would be the night that two British football teams would play "such an important match". The poll has already gained attention with with more than half voting yes.
