She was reported to have been dancing by the water's edge when she tragically slipped, according to The Daily Mail.

Although partygoers tried to rescue Elisangela, she sadly suffered a cardiac arrest as she was being transported to hospital.

Her death was listed as an accident by Limeira police.

Friend Flavia Silva wrote on social media (translated): "I met you over the last few days in the market and you were so happy that you were going to get married.

"Look how fate is a dream being fulfilled and on the same day without knowing that there would be a goodbye that there would be your departure.

"Wherever you are I want you to know that it was a pleasure to meet you.

"Your joy was contagious, your laughter was the best and when you put it together with mine, everyone stopped to look at you.

"May God comfort the hearts of your family and your husband. My condolences to everyone. You will be missed."

Just hours before, the bride had posted a photo on social media, showing her at her wedding.

Elisangela's funeral is due to take place on Tuesday afternoon (16 April).

The tragic accident comes as two bodies have been discovered in the search for a pair of Kansas mums who've been missing since March.

Veronica Butler, 27, and Jillian Kelley, 39, were reported missing on 30 March when their car was discovered abandoned on the side of the road near the Kansas border in Texas County.

According to Texas County Sheriff's Department, the pair had been travelling into Oklahoma to pick up children - believed to be Veronica's kids - with their missing person's alert saying that 'neither made it to the pick up location'.

Both women have been missing since March 30.
Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation

In a new update, Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation took to social media to reveal that they had recovered the remains of two deceased persons.

Posting to X (formerly known as Twitter) on Sunday, (14 April), a spokesperson wrote: “Today, the OSBI [Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation], @FBI, and the Texas County Sheriff's Office recovered two deceased persons in rural Texas County.”

“Both individuals will be transported to the Office of the Oklahoma Chief Medical Examiner to determine identification and cause and manner of death.”

However, officials are yet to confirm whether the newly found remains are those of Veronica and Jillian.
