A teacher flew home to Wales from Toronto in Canada for a wedding, only to discover he was one year early.
Dave Barclay, 34, mistakenly thought Dave Best was marrying on 6 July 2007 after he emailed him at the start of the year and started making plans.
It was only when he arrived back at his mother's in Wenvoe near Cardiff he realised he had travelled 4,000 miles for a wedding 12 months away.
"I am a year early - yeah, my mates are loving it, aren't they!" he said.
Mr Barclay, who has been teaching in Toronto for three years, admitted he had assumed that the big day was this July when he received his friend's email.
"I occasionally come home for weddings and my mate, Dave Best, emailed me at the start of the year to say he's having a wedding - July 6," he told BBC Radio Wales.
