Samantha Miller's new husband was also injured in the South Carolina beach crash and remains hospitalized in critical condition

A bride leaving her wedding reception was killed just moments after the ceremony when a drunk driver slammed into the newlywed couple's golf cart on a South Carolina beach road, authorities said on Monday.

Samantha Miller, 34, of Charlotte, North Carolina, died in the wreck, according to the Charleston county coroner's office. Miller had just gotten married hours earlier, Folly Beach public safety department director Andrew Gilreath said. Three others in the golf cart were injured, including the groom, who remains hospitalized and in critical condition.
