Synopsis: [?] [From The Moving Picture World]? A village wedding is being celebrated in the garden of the hotel, and when the fiddlers strike up for a dance the bride and bridegroom retire to the quietness of one of the rooms to exchange confidences. Unluckily the best man detects them and calls upon the guests assembled to assist him in bringing their hosts back to the garden. What tricks are now played on the luckless couple you will have to look at the film to see; commencing with throwing cabbages at them down the chimney and directing water on them through a hose put against the window up to the time when they are taken to jail for assaulting the village constable the film is one continuous roar from beginning to end.
