The best medicine would be for her husband to use this as leverage in the marriage, and she'll just have to live with it until he gets tired.
"Honey, what are you doing going clubing late at night and not telling me about it !? Just what do you do in those clubs!?"- her
"Since we're talking about whats right and wrong dear, remember when you betrayed the trust I placed in you on our wedding day by ditching me at the alter and how you made absolute fools out of me and my family? I don't know if I can ever trust you again or let that go if you can't trust me to have some fun after work on weekends with the guys..."- him
"......."- her
Yeah, thats right, shut up. Right there. He has a free ticket for as long as he can manage to play it right (not that I condone this sort of behavior in a relationship). Thats her penance. She'll be so wracked with guilt he'll be able to get away with alot of things for a while. Thats her absolution. To not open her trap and let him work off his anger and frustration. He may be all smiles on camera and on tv in interviews, but this should boil any man's blood.
I think the embarassment of her public spectacle is shame enough for her. Look at her, covering her head with a quilt or blanet, or whatever the hell that is. Yeah, she can't even show her own face. Her stupid, stupid face.
She's a coward, through and through, and what she's done is horrible. She's EXTREMELY lucky that she's been blessed with family and friends that are willing to forget and forgive and a person who is STILL willing to marry her and let this pass because he still LOVES her. She has no idea how good she has it, but she will through shame.
Under normal circumstances, if she were to have simply run from the wedding but didn't 'go missing' and cause people alot of grief and sorrow and law enforcement wasted resources and she later came to her senses and returned that same day to commense with the wedding and she only needed to get away for a while, then I wouldn't have said what I just said. Because what she did to that degree would have been understandable, both mentally and psychologically. Its not only forgivable but something that can be explained, accepted, and worked with.
What this dumb, stupid fool did though is unexcusable. I don't however feel she deserves any prison time.
The shame that she'll have to live down is sentence enough. Having to look at both stranger and friend alike and know they're staring at her with contempt for what she did. That and maybe some highway trash pickup duty wearing a large sign that says 'I'm the runaway bride! Honk if you think I'm stupid!'
That seems very fair and reasonable.
