“Already 20 minutes late and 25 minutes from church, the car decided to break down. After I borrowed the chauffeur’s phone and rang a couple of cabs that were extremely unhelpful, what should I do?
“Yes, I’ll get out on a lane and hitchhike !!”
Shenice continued, “My sister and I were standing in the street in my big white dress waving cars down. We had a guy stop in a van who was so nice but didn’t have room to take us so we kept waving cars down.
“After about 15 minutes … yes, 15 full minutes of cars and cars driving past someone who was obviously on their way to their wedding, haha, someone finally stopped to see if we were okay, and.. offered us to go to church.
“You came from near Dudley on a trip to Gloucester Quays. They were my guardian angels. “
The happy bride continued, “I honestly can’t thank them enough for stopping and taking the time to take us to church that afternoon. I am so grateful!!
“You are incredible!!”
By sharing her story on Facebook, Shenice was able to track down the couple who helped her get to church and thank them again.
