Wedding pair's nightmare day

It could have been the wedding day from hell. First, a 16-month-old page boy turned blue and collapsed in front of the bride.

He was recovering and on his way to hospital when the groom's 76-year-old mother collapsed as the wedding photographs were being taken. The paramedic team, which had helped the youngster, returned and she, too, had to be taken to hospital. Minutes later, a guest received a text saying her father had died.



At the reception, the couple's toddler son cut his head after a glass cover fell on him, followed hours later by their daughter cutting her head open. Then as the day was winding up, the groom, setting off to see his mum in hospital, found his car was locked in a secure car park.

But Paul Cassidy and bride Vilma are still smiling after their wedding at St Mary's Church, in Melton, on Saturday. Transport boss Paul, 50, of Melton, said: "I thought Jeremy Beadle was going to pop out at any minute."
