ROMANTIC Ross Frazer compiled a wedding A-list to marry Louise Everist - by getting 60 celebrities to send their congratulations.

He secretly wrote to 300 big names and got letters and signed photos from people including rugby's Jonny Wilkinson, ex-US President Bill Clinton and The Sopranos' James Gandolfini.

Groom Ross, 29, also got replies from PM Gordon Brown, Man Utd boss Sir Alex Ferguson, Harry Potter star Daniel Radcliffe and rockers Manic Street Preachers.

The Queen's office sent one stating she sends letters only for diamond anniversaries or 100th birthdays - but wished them luck.

Warehouse worker Ross, of Wolverhampton, gave them to Louise, 34, in their honeymoon suite after Saturday's wedding. He got the idea after sending a letter to her favourite band, The Stereophonics.

He said: "They wrote back with signatures from the whole band, and even joked about it 'all being downhill from here'.

"After that I wrote to every famous person I could think of." He spent a month writing the letters on lunch breaks. Louise said: "I loved it and love him for doing it. It was a wonderful surprise."
