Wedding caterer and bride arrested for allegedly adding cannabis to guests' food

A wedding caterer and bride have been arrested in Florida amid allegations that they added cannabis to their guests' food at an event In February 

The pair are being charged for culpable negligence, delivery of marijuana and violating Florida's Anti-Tampering Act, after officials were called to a wedding by attendees who felt unwell after eating food from the buffet and showed "symptoms consistent with that of someone who has used illegal drugs."

Among the 50 guests attending, reports included feeling "stoned," "ill and high," stomach cramps and vomitting, with several transported to hospital for treatment.

One guest was convinced that her son-in-law had died and that her family was keeping information from her, causing her to become "loud and unruly" to the point that "she had to be given something to calm down," as noted in one of the police affidavits seen by CNN.

Another told the police that he "felt tingly, his heart started to race, and was having crazy thoughts."

One guest said she witnessed a member of the catering staff adding "a green substance" to a dish which would later contain olive oil consumed by attendees at the wedding, which the police described as "shake" - or "small scraps that fall off of larger amounts of marijuana."

The same person said that the bride admitted to adding cannabis to a dish, and "acted excited" when she told her - but upon questioning by the police, the bride denied having done so.

Members of the catering company had left the premises before the police had a chance to interrogate them on the day.

Officials say that bread and lasagna later tested positive for THC, a psychoactive chemical found in marijuana. Three guests also tested positive for the drug.

Medical use of marijuana is legal in Florida, but recreational use isn't - and in any case, lacing food is a first degree felony in the US state. It is unclear whether either defendants have hired attorneys, but both have reportedly bailed out of the local jail. Their trial is set to begin in June.
