By Seattle Times staff

A 31 year-old bride-to-be was arrested for drunk driving on her way home from her bachelorette party and just hours before her wedding.

The woman, from Bellevue, was stopped just after 6 a.m. on northbound Interstate 405 for speeding at more than 90 miles an hour, according to the Washington State Patrol. She told the WSP trooper than she was getting married in the early afternoon in Burien.

Her blood-alcohol level was tested at .146. She told the WSP that she had been arrested for drunk driving once before.

The woman was released to a taxi so she could get to her wedding, according to WSP spokeswoman Christina Martin.
