Gaye's a real-life wedding crasher Wairarapa Times Age

01.12.09

There are dedicated matrimony celebrants, there are very dedicated marriage celebrants - and then there's Gaye Gough.

The well-known Masterton Celebrant epitomised the saying "The Show Must Go On" when facial and arm injuries unremitting from a car accident on the way to her afternoon wedding appointment didn't stop her from conducting the service.

Registered officiant Gaye Gough, 65, was heading to the Riversdale wedding of Darren Blithe and Renee Eparaima sharply before 2pm on Saturday when her car began sliding on the freshly metalled Private Road just 200 metres before the venue.

Within seconds the car spun sidelong, slid off the road and halted itself above a stream between two banks.

In the impact Mrs Gough hit her face against the car and, although she is still unsure how, cut set up her arm.

With blood gushing - partly due to the blood-thinning Warfarin medication she has been taking since her heart surgery in 2002- she leaned out the window to bring to a stop any getting on her elegant cream celebrants' outfit.
