On the morning of her wedding day, Kate woke up to any bride's nightmare. Recent flooding in Australia had dumped 10 inches of rain on her parents' house in just one day, making it impossible for her to get to her wedding ceremony in the town just five minutes away.

So, desperate times called for desperate measures! Kate took to social media to ask for help, and ended up getting a lift from a local helicopter company thanks to the power of the internet. Against all odds, Kate made it to the ceremony in time to marry her man, Wayne, and the two danced the night away with their loved ones. You know what they say: Where there's a will, there's a way!
