Wedding cards are stolen from Limerick hotel on couple's big day
The hotel did recover some of the cards and cash
The groom was enjoying the festivities when he decided to bring some of the cards he received that contained cash to his room for safekeeping.
Unfortunately, at one point he discovered that the cards were gone.
The hotel did recover some of the cards and cash but there is still a large amount of cash missing.
Gardaí are investigating the incident and Sergeant Ber Leetch, crime prevention officer at Henry Street garda station said: "It is no harm to caution anybody getting married to have a definite and safe means planned to protect your wedding cash gifts.
"Guests should look at the many ways to transfer cash to the couple in advance of the day.
"If you do find yourself with cash on the day I know some hotels provide a safe for the cash, this should be discussed with your chosen hotel in advance."
