A team of travel agents found themselves splashed over the national press this week after football star Wayne Rooney and wife Coleen joined their birthday bash.
Shrewsbury luxury agency Opulent Travel Services held a party at Cheshire hotspot Victor’s in Hale to mark its first year of business last week.
Clients including celebrities such as Ex-On The Beach star Joshua Ritchie, TV presenter Jenny Powell and Hollyoaks and Emmerdale actor Anthony Quinlan were among the guests.
Everton star Rooney and wife Coleen were enjoying dinner at the restaurant too, and popped in to the event to say hello.
Opulent client Liz snapped a selfie with the pair, which later went viral, being picked up by various national news websites. “Coleen and Wayne Rooney pose for cosy snap on rare night out”, read Hello! magazine’s headline.
Speaking exclusively to TTG, Opulent’s director, Leighann Morgan, said: “The evening was full of networking and lots of travel chat.
“The Cheshire guests seemed to love the deals from Opulent and the service – we were delighted to have so many celebrities there.
“We have worked with many celebrities, so their attendance was a thank you for us helping them out... They still want that personal customer service.
“We are just focusing on the latest explosion of social media while also planning our first birthday celebrations in Shrewbury.”
Reflecting on the Global Travel Group member’s first year of business, Morgan added: “Now l feel we are stronger than ever and have a great team in place, which is exciting as it will be bringing new changes over the next couple of years.”
