Elizabeth Gray and Lewis Aubrey were at St John’s Church in Redhill, were about to get married, but there was an unexpected occurrence. While reading their vows, Matt (the best man) dropped the ring. It hit the ground with a ‘pling’ and was lost. The Vicar then turned to Matt and asked, “Was that the ring?”
Matt replied with a worried, “Yes.” The attendees searched the ground. They wanted to find the ring and continue the ceremony. More and more people started crawling on the ground, searching for the ring. Shortly after, the bride’s mother offered to use her ring so that the wedding could get back on track. Rev. Nicholas Calver was determined to find the ring. Nicholas went back to the church later that day with a shovel, and a couple of hours later found the ring. He observed a crack between the step and a dais. Nicholas, thinking the ring might be there he pried them apart with the shovel to make the gap bigger. He shined a light and was relieved to find the ring. Nicholas then went to the couple’s reception to deliver the good news. The couple was delighted that their ring was found. The groom put the ring on the bride’s finger, and everyone cheered. A happy ending to a tragic day.
