Doing a speech at your own wedding is a daunting experience.

Standing up in front of everyone you know to tell them why your bride is amazing is tricky enough. Doing it in front of everyone you know AND YOUR NEW IN-LAWS is nigh on impossible - especially when you and your new father-in-law support different football teams.

That was the delicate situation facing Adam Tanous ahead of his own big day. Adam is a Chelsea fan. His bride's dad, Hughie, is an Arsenal fan. Not an ideal combination.

So, what did Adam do to win over his wife's father as he became part of his family? Did he publicly apologise for Cesc Fabregas? Did he burn an image of Jose Mourinho in front of the entire wedding party?

No and no. Incredibly, as you can see above, Adam got several Arsenal stars to film a personal message to Hughie, assuring him that his new Chelsea-supporting son-in-law isn't all that bad.

No, we are not making this up. Take a look at the clip above and see for yourself.

Olivier Giroud does the talking, ably backed up by Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Joel Campbell and Per Mertesacker. The Frenchman addresses Hughie directly, telling him:

"I know he might be a Chelsea fan, but I assure you your daughter is in safe hands".

It's an unbelievable scoop, which Adam was able to pull off thanks to his job as a PR. He works on Citroen's partnership with Arsenal, so the club and the car manufacturer combined to make this happen as a special wedding present.

"Citroen and Arsenal were working on a series of feel good messages to fans with my agency, Performance Communications," Adam tells us. "When I found out, I saw an opportunity - so I asked to be a part of it.

"Fortunately the idea was accepted and it went down an absolute storm on the day. It was one of those money can't buy moments and added to what was already an unbelievable day".

Pretty cool, huh?

Well played, Arsenal!
