Dismembered bride

[snopes]

Comment: Years ago I heard about an accident that happened in the Chicago
area. It was told as if it happened recently, which would have been the
early 90s. According to the story, the stretch limo carrying the bride
and groom hit a bump or pothole on the way between the wedding and the
reception. The limo broke on a seam when it hit the bump, and the bride
fell partially through the hole, cutting off both her legs in the process.
Now, this reeks of an urban legend to me, but my husband insists that it
actually happened. I don't have the resources, so can you shed some light
on the incident?

This link tells of a bride who had to have her legs amputated when her dress got caught in the wheels of a motorcycle. No mention of a limo.

i haven't heard this before. this kinda seems similar to how i heard isadora duncan died. she was riding in a limo and her scarf was so long it got tangled in the back tire and broke her neck.

True, but it was a sports car (probably one of these) and the autopsy stated strangulation as cause of death

Build speedbumps near churches, harvest garters, and may no man suffer the ignimony of having a taller bride ever again.

Anyway, I always thought it was the duty of the best man to turn up legless to the reception,

I lived in Chicago in the 90s and I never heard that one.

I was born and raised in the Chicago land area, and I've never heard anything about this.
