12 cast last time, possibly 17 if we throw in everyone who wants to be in it.
• mum of the bride
• Well if you're not going to marry him I will (what kind of characther would that
• an overly honest person type - like "you're not going to get them back.
• the ex is in the audience with a white dress underneath in the hope that she would marry him, so when she finds out that the bride died she thought, marry me as it's all paid for

We have a wedding service just about to happen. Guests sat on either side of the Aisle. The groom is at the top waiting. We hear organ music as the flower guy walks up the aisle throwing flowers into the crowd. He get's up to the nervous Groom who says.
Tim (Groom)
where is she, she should have been here half an hour ago
Veronica
Maybe she's done a runner. An who would blame her.
Terry (flower guy)
Don't worry I can go and throw a few more flowers around, I've got plenty...
Priest
No actually I've got another service in half an hour. If we don't get on with it soon I'm afraid we'll have to postpone
a look of horror comes over the groom
Tim (Groom)
Postpone????
Then in amongst the crowd everyone is repeating the questions 'postpone?' while constantly turning heads towards different people and flinging their arms in the air
suddenly a voice in amongst the crowd pipes up
Sharon (the brides cleaner)
Sorry to be Frank but it's no surprise to me that she's late. She'd always late, she's late with payments, she's late if we ever have a meeting and yet she has a massive go at me if I so much as was a second late.
Talking of which she still owe's me 3 months pay.
3 Bloody months pay
Eleanor (Grooms mother)
Well actually that sounds about right. In fact I've always said, haven't I darling' that she's making out that she has far more money than she actually has and that the only reason she's marrying my son is...
Tim (Groom)
Mum, please stop now. I happen to love Cathy, very much in fact and I won't have you...
Jemima (maid of honour)
and do you know what she did to me?
everyone
what????
Jemima (maid of honour)
The cow promised to pay for a new hairdoo and then left the hairdresser early and I had to pay for her, for the bridesmades as well as myself. I coud have...
The father of the bride has suddenly walked in and shouts
Giorgio (father of the bride)
Stoppppppppppp
He's emotional
Giorgio (father of the bride)
My Bella Bambina Caterina...
He pauses for breath
Giorgio (father of the bride)
She.....
Tim (Groom)
Please Giorgio. Tell us
Giorgio (father of the bride)
She's a dead
The groom collapses into loud wailing and tears.
Giorgio goes to console the groom while wailing himself
Lou the best man approaches the groom in a loud whisper
Lou
My opinion, you dodged a bullet babe, she was tapped in the ed. Looks like someone's done it for ya
The groom kicks the best man in the shin who writhes in agony and hops off into the distance
Tim (Groom)
But how. How did she die?
Giorgio (father of the bride)
She was killed. Murdered. I think, one of you people, who no like my daughter murdered her.
Sharon (the brides cleaner)
Well I think it must have been that maid of honour, you can see how much you hate her
Jemima (maid of honour)
What? I couldn't even kill a spider. I think it's the grooms mother, you can tell that she would do anything to stop her son from marrying that gold digger
Eleanor (Grooms mother)
That's absurd, and anyway, you can tell the amount of hatred in the cleaners voice. And I've heard she's lethal with a broom handle.
Sharon (the brides cleaner)
I did bloody hate her, but I wouldn't kill the person who was paying me
Veronica
Seriously guys, if you hated her that much I would have done it for you for free.
They break into an improve of arguing with each other. You can't understant what they're saying.
Giorgio (father of the bride)
Stoppppppppppp

We see Pippy and Poppy walking up. They are slapstick masters. Clumbsy while trying to look professional
