Front wheel bearings

My 1994 E 350 had a bad bearing so someone replaced it for me inner and outer. Drove down the street and it stated making a weird noise the did a wobble limp I stopped, i am sitting on side of road. What could be the issue?

No cotter pin?
The races were not installed all the way into the hub and now the bearings are loose?
That happens after driving some and the weight forces the races back into position, which loosens up the wheel bearings
Loose lug nuts?
Good luck
It's hard getting good help these days, especially for auto shops
Learn to do some of that type of easy work yourself

Call the shop or person that fixed it and tell them to come get it. It obviously wasn't done correctly.
