My people, the Irish Catholics do death well; the Italians have the corner on weddings.
For a wedding to really be a hit it has to have something different, something more exciting than the other sixteen weddings you have been to this summer.
No different in Italy. Weddings in the old country are always trying to out do themselves.
Corriere della Sera reports about a recent wedding reception held at beautiful Montioni Park in Suvereto, near Livorno, the bride and groom had hired a microlight plane to fly past and throw the bouquet to a line of women guests, however, the flowers were sucked into the plane's engine causing it to catch fire and explode.
The aircraft plunged into a hostel. One passenger on the plane was badly hurt.
But about 50 people who had been in the hostel escaped unscathed, as did the pilot.
On the plus side, they will be talking about this wedding for years and years and years.
