Jo and Danny Oultram, who have been married for 20 years, were due to head to the tiny village of Alykanas on the island of Zakynthos with 25 guests to celebrate the occasion.
A couple who were due to renew their wedding vows outside a beautiful Greek church were left heartbroken after receiving a four word message from Jet2.
She added: "We were all waiting at the gate, we had been sitting there for around 40 plus minutes when people's phones started pinging with emails from Jet2 stating that the holiday had been cancelled and refunds would be issued within seven days. People were angry, crying, shouting. "We were due to stay at the hotel where we have been going for 15 years. It is a family-run business and they are like family too. They were very upset."
Top news stories today The couple were originally married on August 16, 2003, but due to high season costs they had moved the renewal ceremony forward two weeks. Jo's son, Thomas, 19, was due to give her away and her daughter, Ellie, was also attending. Their flight was one of many cancelled over the the Bank Holiday as thousands of passengers faced holiday misery due to technical issues with Britain's air traffic control systems. Flights were grounded and cancelled while others were delayed as the worst shutdown for a decade created chaos on one of the busiest travel days of the year.
