A couple that was reportedly heading over to celebrate their honeymoon was killed in a devastating and horrific car crash recently.

The accident took place in Colorado and even killed the bride’s mother and left her one-year-old child orphaned for life.

The couple was identified as Ruben Rodriguez and Juliana Rodriguez who were driving with their young son outside of Denver around 8:30 am. This is when a semi-truck near them ended up overturning and was carrying pipes.

The truck’s load spilled across both sides of the highway and caused at least three vehicles to crash as per reports from Denver 7.

The bride’s mother also passed away who was traveling with the couple in another vehicle as it was also involved in the crash. Only her father and young son survived the devastating injuries.

It’s not yet clear what caused the truck to overturn but many are now mourning the loss of the victims after such a happy occasion which turned bittersweet in minutes.

The couple were said to be the most loving and caring individuals. They were on their way to the mountains to celebrate their love and new marriage union. But who knew that this trip would end up killing them?
