The coupe was ready and dressed, the guess assembled in the church and the muicians were ready to play -- only the Priest wasn't there: The horror scenario happened to two betrothed in the Viennese neighborhood of Floridorf.
The pastor had completely forgotten the marriage. The 30 year old Iris and her 27 Year old partner [sic] were so angry after 8 months of planning and expectation that they threatened to leave the Church. Now the Archdiocese has promised to compensate the couple for the wedding, inclusive the blooming bridal bouquet, organist and church rent.
The abandoned couple estimate the costs of the Church wedding with 150 invited guests to be 2000 Euro says the Austrian daily "Heute". In order to prevent them from leaving the Church, Cardinal Schönborn is going to save the day by personally presiding at their wedding.
