AHSA, 21 August 2003 — A wedding ceremony ended in tears when the bride arrived very late. The bride had been forced to wait her turn in a beauty shop and so did not arrive at the ceremony until 3 a.m. She found that more than half the guests had left. The bride broke down in tears because the most important day in her life had been spoiled; her family and friends tried to comfort her as best they could.
