Mum reveals bride’s heartbreaking final words before she was killed on her wedding day

The mother of a bride, who was tragically killed just minutes after leaving her wedding reception, has revealed her daughter's final words.

Samantha Miller, 34, was killed as Jamie Komoroski, 25, allegedly crashed into the golf cart they left their wedding reception in.

Aric Hutchinson, 36, who she married just hours earlier last Friday (28 April), was also left critically injured.

Komoroski, 25, has been charged with one count of reckless homicide and three counts of felony DUI resulting in great bodily harm, and is being held in custody.

It's alleged Komoroski was speeding at 65mph in a 25mph zone behind the wheel of a rented Toyota Camry, and under the influence when the tragedy occurred at Folly Beach, South Carolina.

Police documents have shown that Komoroski 'strongly refused' to take a sobriety tests after the crash, despite looking like she was under the influence, as she looked unsteady on her feet.

WCBD reported (citing the affidavits) that the drunk driver told officers that she had downed a bottle of tequila and a beer just one hour before the fatal crash.

The newlyweds and two others were riding in the cart when it was hit, travelling over 100 yards and rolling several times before coming to an eventual halt.

Samantha was killed instantly from blunt force injuries sustained in the crash, Charleston County Coroner's Office confirmed.

Her devastated family have been left with bittersweet moments of the wedding day, with a GoFundMe page revealing heartbreaking pictures of the newly-weds, where they are seen laughing and doing a sparkle tunnel, just minutes before the devastating crash.

Samantha's mother, Lisa Miller, has now revealed the heartbreaking final words of the bride before she was tragically killed.

Speaking to WCIV, Lisa said: "On the beginning of the golf car ride, [Samantha] said, ‘I wish this night could go on forever.’

"The best night of her life," the devastated mum continued.

In the same interview, Lisa revealed the incredible treat her daughter had for her at the wedding.

“They announced a surprise dance for the most important person in Sam's life,” she said.

“Which was me and we danced to Bruno Mars. ‘Just The Way You Are’. That's our song."

Meanwhile, Samantha’s sister, Mandi Jenkins, told WCIV: "That person made a careless mistake. And it’s not a mistake. It is a life-changing event.

"I never thought it would happen to us and to my beautiful sister, your beautiful daughter and all the 150 people that were there."
