A Halifax couple’s wedding day took an unexpected turn on Saturday after their limo went up in flames.

Captain Darren Jones with Halifax Regional Fire and Emergency says by the time fire crews got to the scene, the limo was fully engulfed.

Jones says it’s unlikely officials will be able to determine a cause for fire.

“The whole thing was involved, there’s really nothing left to investigate,” Jones said.
