Rolling Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood hopes to hire a gang of dwarfs to play pranks on guests at his daughter’s wedding, it’s been claimed.

Wood wants to hire actors to dress as elves for the wedding, based on the character of Puck in Shakespeare’s Midsummer Night’s Dream.

The guitarist’s daughter Leah Wood is due to marry TV producer Jack Macdonald later this year.

According to the Sun newspaper, who quote an unnamed source, Wood wants "little people in costumes popping up.”

“It's going to be a fabulous do with no expense spared, and the elves will make it even more fun."
