A devastated bride claims her dream wedding was ruined after she was ejected from and ran over by a golf cart on her big day – leaving her harmed and scarred almost a year later. 

Natasha Quigley never imagined that the gorgeous wedding she planned at the scenic Furry Creek Golf & Country Club in British Columbia, Canada, would be anything but perfect. 

But the British bride’s wedding day took an unexpected turn when she was injured during the celebration she traveled more than 4,700 miles for on August 1, 2024. 

Quigley, of Colchester, Essex, claimed she was injured in a golf cart fiasco after her marriage ceremony with her husband, Harry Cato. 

The couple was accompanied by a photographer, the maid of honor and the best man on the ill-fated cart headed toward the ocean for pictures before the reception. 

While Quigley was taking in sweeping views of mountains and cedar trees, the driver ‘struck a bump at high speed,’ according to a lawsuit filed against the golf course last week, reviewed by the National Post.

The unexpected jolt allegedly caused Quigley’s ‘dress to fall and become entangled’ in one of the wheels.

She was then tugged to the ground by the force, before being dragged and run over by the accused reckless driver, the filing explains. 

The newlywed claimed was left with cuts and marks all over her body. 

Now 11 months after the disastrous day, Quigley says she is still suffering from the fall that is burned into her memory. 

She has been experiencing, ‘loss of enjoyment of life, loss of housekeeping capacity, permanent physical disability, loss of physical, mental and emotional health and loss of earnings’ ever since, the suit reads.  

Quigley’s lawyer, Manjot Hallen, could not further elaborate to DailyMail.com the extent of her injuries. ‘She was injured,’ he vaguely confirmed.

He said he could only minimally comment on the ongoing lawsuit against the golf course’s parent company Fine Peace Furry Creek Golf Ltd. Partnership, as the case is now in front of the BC Supreme Court. 

While Hallen said Furry Creek has failed to take responsibility for wrecking the Quigley-Cato union, the ritzy golf club claimed there are holes in Quigley’s story. 

Deputy General Manager Patrick Guan told the National Post said the accident happened when the driver was slowing down to make a slight turn.

‘It was an accident and nobody wanted it to happen,’ he told the outlet, adding that no one else was harmed. 

Guan also claimed the driver was not speeding or behaving recklessly when Quigley tumbled off the cart. 

The only reason she went off, Guan said, was because the train of her dress got tangled with a wheel. 

He agreed that the bride was dragged and run over, but claimed only her toe was hit by the wheels and the driver stopped as soon as he realized what happened. 

Golf course staff allegedly offered first aid and to call 911, but Quigley said she was alright and that she should have been holding up her dress, Guan claimed.

She then spent the rest of the day seemingly enjoying herself – dancing, drinking and ‘having fun,’ Guan said.

So when she wrote to the course requesting money back for her dress and some of her other wedding expenses, the company’s lawyer denied her compensation. 

But the lawsuit argues it was the golf course’s responsibility to protect Quigley’s safety – and they failed to do so.
