Bride dances her way into the headlines after breaking her leg on her wedding day

Euromedia sales executive Nichola Newton’s dream wedding had all the ingredients of a perfect day – until she tripped on her wedding dress and broke her leg at her reception. Nichola had married her partner of 10 years, Jonny Newton, 33, at the Park Hotel, Chorley on Thursday 2 April. They had cut the cake and enjoyed their first dance when Nichola decided to kick off her shoes and take to the floor again. She said: “It certainly wasn’t the best decision I’ve ever made. I remember my left foot catching inside my dress and down I went.” Although she was in some pain and discomfort, Nichola, who works at Chorley-based Euromedia Associates, said she didn’t realise at first how serious it was.
