If you believe a Chef can ruin a wedding, make sure to only serve appetizers when you do it the second time around.— Kris N (@wifigotmegoing) July 5, 2021
I wouldn't be upset if Chef @GordonRamsay crashed my wedding. ????????♀️— Katie Desjardins (@katie_prophet) July 5, 2021
he didnt exploit them because other events fairly rented it out at the same time, the venue rented the beach out but so did the production crew & the couple have to take this problem up with the venue. The "gate crashing" part is very misleading...— Dino (@nnnnndino) July 5, 2021
"It's a real shame this couple are still complaining, their bill was generously covered, they happily chatted with Gordon on the day, they didn't have exclusive use of the beach and all the other beach goers had a really great time joining in on & off camera,"— Detective Bluto Mindpretzel (@whoislasundjra) July 5, 2021
Sir, you can crash my event whenever you want. I would (almost) kill to try your Beef Wellington and scallops!— Cindy Stephenson (@heavenhillnort1) July 5, 2021
If I ever get married, please come crash it. Call me an idiot sandwich!— BC Moore (@legallybryan) July 5, 2021

Many people also argued that the couple had not purchased the entire beach, which is why such a clash had happened. The producers of Gordon Ramsay's show also tendered a written apology to the couple. "I am mortified that we affected your special day and I can assure you that it was never our intention to upset you or your guests," read the note. The producers also paid the wedding's costs in full to 'make amends' for the error.
