A couple almost had to cancel their wedding after the groom slit his face open, needed 28 stitches and lost a tooth days before the big day and a hurricane nearly stopped the maid of honour and flowers arriving in time. Adelia Killian, 25, and her partner, Connor, 29, were looking forward to getting married and decided to wed in Nantucket, Massachusetts, US, in September 2021.
The pair had arranged their wedding in just two weeks after their relatives encouraged them to tie the knot on an upcoming family holiday. After managing to get it all sorted in the nick of time, the couple flew out to Nantucket in August 2021.
But the day after they arrived, Adelia had a call to say Connor had flipped over the handlebars of a bike and cut his face and knocked a tooth out. Fortunately, the groom was OK but had to have 28 stitches and was told he wouldn't be able to have his tooth replaced until after the wedding.
