He appeared with the rings dangling from his neck after the original bearers pretended to have forgotten them and left in a hurry.
Newlyweds Jen, 27, and Tom Loveland, 28, planned the £1,000 stunt.
Pringle was joined by pal Widget as they posed for photos in Bridgnorth, Shrops.
Jen said: “We kept it a secret from all the guests – only me, Tom and the ring bearers knew.
“It was very funny when they ran out and pretended they had forgotten the rings.
“The guests were mumbling uncomfortably and it was so awkward until I heard someone say, 'Oh my God, there's a penguin'.”
The couple booked them at Heythrop Zoological Garden, Oxfordshireafter being told that a goose would be too unpredictable.
And Jen said their flying guests never fluttered.
She added: “They suggested penguins because it's basically like having one dog over there.
“They are curious and friendly and used to being among people. Everyone loved them.”
