A HEARTBROKEN woman whose boyfriend died days before their wedding decided to get married anyway - to a shop DUMMY.
Sanja Seke, 21, was looking forward to years of wedded bliss with her 29-year-old fella Igor but her hopes and dreams for the future were shattered when he died of a heart attack just before their wedding day.She said of the shocking news: “We had been together since I was 16, and all I wanted to do was spend my life with him.
“When they told me that he had died of a sudden heart attack I just couldn’t take it in, my life over the last two years has been like a living nightmare.
With the event in the Serbian town of Sid planned and paid for, Sanja decided to get married anyway and used a mannequin dressed in Igor’s wedding suit as a stand-in, saying it was the next best thing to actually getting married to her boyfriend.
Rather than be downbeat about everything that happened, the bride and guests tried to make it a day celebrating Igor’s life.
Sanja added: “We tried to make it a joyful affair and a celebration of his life and for me it was all about completing something unfinished so that I can move on.
“I hope that now I will be able to move on with my life.”
The ceremony also included music by their favourite singer and a local priest to conduct a special ceremony to help Sanja find closure
