The bride had just arrived from her wedding reception and was drunk enough to require help in getting to her room at the Hilton Garden Inn in Hoffman Estates, Ill., the Arlington Heights (Ill.) Daily Herald reported Tuesday. Advertisement At about 1 a.m. Sunday, she hung her dress and activated the system, flooding her fourth-floor suite and the one next to it with stinky, stagnant sprinkler water, the Daily Herald reported. Water soaked through the floor and down an elevator shaft, damaging two rooms on each of the second and third floors below. The sound of the fire alarms evacuated the 184-room hotel, where seven weddings had booked rooms for the night. The bride and groom fled and hadn't been heard from as of Monday afternoon. "She definitely won't forget her wedding," Hoffman Estates Deputy Fire Chief John Mayer told the newspaper.
