Newlywed Kylie Cox was celebrating her big day when one of her friends complained of being unwell, then collapsed, the Mirror has said.
Using first aid and mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, 24-year-old Cox, who is a staff nurse was able to keep her friend alive until paramedics arrived on the scene.
Following the incident, the bride and groom left their reception and followed their friend to the hospital.
She explained: "Our friend asked me for a dance, but while we were on the dance floor, he complained of feeling faint.
"I turned round to get him a chair and he collapsed. I rushed over and gave him mouth-to-mouth resuscitation.
"A bridesmaid, who is also a nurse, did the same and my uncle and another guest joined in to give him chest compression until the ambulance arrived.
"Then me and Russell spent the first night of our marriage at the hospital, because we didn’t know whether our friend was going to live or die."
She added that the couple's friend is still in hospital, but would make a full recovery.
The wedding reception was due to run until late, but the couple left around 8.30pm with the bride's father sending the remaining guests home shortly afterwards.
Kylie and her builder husband Russell are now said to be wanting to hold a repeat reception for their family and friends.
