Bride dies on her wedding day
From the morning news, the most awaited day of the bride turned out to be the her last day and the most painful moment of her husband, family and friends.
The ceremony bride and groom said their "I Do". It was a very overwhelming moment for the groom. After the ceremony, preceded the reception and the newly weds had their wedding dance. The bride suddenly fell unconscious. One of the guests did CPR and called 911. She was rushed to the hospital but it was too late. From sources she died of cardiac arrest, due to diabetes she suffered when she was a child.

Bride dies during first dance with husband
Heart disease claims woman at her own ‘Big Fat Greek Wedding’
DAVIE, Fla. - Kim Sjostrom wanted a real-life version of the film "My Big Fat Greek Wedding," which played in the background as friends fixed her hair and makeup before her own marriage ceremony.
But less than an hour after she and Teddy Efkarpides were wed, Sjostrom crumpled in her husband's arms during a Greek song that means "Love Me."
At 36, Sjostrom was dead from heart disease.
The wedding had became a project at Davie Elementary School, where Sjostrom taught first grade. Fellow teachers provided the wedding gown, the flowers and decorations. One of them, an ordained minister, performed the ceremony.
"It was perfect for her," said Dominic Church, the minister friend.
Sjostrom carried blue and white flowers during the ceremony — the colors of the Greek flag — as she exchanged vows with Efkarpides, a 43-year-old carpenter and Navy veteran. They had met three years to the day before the Jan. 19 wedding.
During the couple's first dance, Sjostrom complained of being lightheaded. Efkarpides thought his wife, a diabetic, needed sugar, but she collapsed.
Wedding guests, paramedics and doctors at a nearby hospital were unable to revive her.
She had a previous cardiac episode in her 20s and was a poster child _ literally _ for juvenile diabetes, relatives and friends said. Efkarpides recalled seeing the poster featuring her on New York subways.
He consoles himself by reading a list of "101 Reasons Why I Love You" that Sjostrom gave him their first Christmas together. "Number 1. You make me smile."
No. 98 is especially difficult: "You're the one I want to grow old with."
supernurse, the marriage ceremony was completed. he is married and a widow the same day.

mmmmm, so she was cured of diabetes in adulthood then?.....

shreeya thanks for the information. we should have our bodies checked at least annually. we will never know what is happening inside. we have the chance to prolong our lives if we take care of our health...

A am assuming the marriage was not consummated...depends in which part she popped her clogs I spose!...If not consummated he was never married!

Well supernurse you are making an assumption there.
Well at least they didn't consumate the marriage so he's not technically married!!

heard about similar stories and lots of others where a bride or a groom got badly Injured or went blind.
sometimes also a fight between the in-laws that ends to call off the wedding/marriage.
I've heard a story that a newly wed died on their first night because of gas leakage.

It can be a true story. Juvenile diabetes can remain hidden for years without notice. The same case happened in a family in India and I know them very well. We all played together when we were young and nobody ever had a smallest doubt on her condition. My Mom told that when that girl was 18 something she suddenly collapsed one day and immediately went into coma. Only after this everybody including her family members came to know abt her diabetes. Well, she died within 3 days.
So, I think this story also can be a true story.

sorry.. wrong post...
Sad.. as Johnny says it cud be coz she was forced to marry a guy she doesnt love.. but not sure though.. it could be natural also..
Sad.. but i wonder if its a real story? It must be a shock to the lady.. and the husband too.. but who was teh girl in the restaurant?? his fren?
poor husband..how can he handle it? it may take years before he can move on...as they say everything has a reason, in this case it would be very hard to find one...
