The joy of marriage and honeymoon has turned sour after a 31-year-old bride died during their honeymoon vacation which was just six days after their wedding.

They had just celebrated their wedding on Saturday, July 11, 2015 at the Denver Botanic Gardens, according to their wedding web page.

Bereaved groom wrote, “Turns out, we ended up having more things in common than we first thought, including a shared appreciation for kids’ movies, yoga, sarcasm and love for the outdoors. “It became apparent very quickly that we had both found ‘our person.”

Chaffee County police investigation revealed that around 1:15 pm, the couple were about 12,400 feet up the mountain when they were hit by lighting.

Tourists at the scene had to walk an hour to get service for their cellphones in order to call the police. It took rescuers until 5:00 p.m., to get to the injured couple, ABC 7 reported.

Unfortunately, Bartlett, was confirmed dead at the scene while two other hikers sustained minor injuries and her husband is in a stable condition at a hospital.
