A Wedding Ceremony Turned Into A Funeral After Couple Died Hours Before Wedding

A wedding had to be hastily turned into a funeral after couples died hours before they were due to be joined together in a holy matrimony.

According to media reports, the wedding of Luana Alves, 36 and her groom Rodrigo Nogueira, 31, had been due to take place today at 11am at a church in Passos, Southeast Brazil.

The reports further have it that the night before the wedding both groom and bride were involved in a car accident as they headed home to finalise preparations for the big day.

Police sources said their car collided head-on with another as driver Rodrigo tried to overtake another vehicle on Brazil’s 184 Highway.

Bride Luana died instantly and Rodrigo hours later after he was rushed to hospital in a serious condition.

Shocked relatives, many of whom had just arrived in the town ready for the wedding, quickly had to organise the couple’s burial.

The hastily-arranged funeral was due to take place this afternoon in the same church where they were supposed to have wedded, according to reports.

The driver of the other car, Jorge Rocha, 50, was also taken to the local Alzeira Velano hospital but also died of injuries.

This is sad!!!! May their gentle souls rest in peace!!!
