Clash of dates

A groom I'm writing for told me he and a mate had bought a couple of tickets for the Ireland v England match for £300 ech. He bought them a few months ago and says he didn't realise the match was on the same day as his wedding - so he's now looking for someone to take his place. He says his fiancée is called Nicole, is 5'8", very pretty, an excellent cook and has her own income!
