Update: Lost Gifts Returned to Bride and Groom!

Bride_Christine_Herrick_taxi_gifts Earlier this week, we told you about David Fitzhenry and Christine Herrick, the New York newlyweds who lost their wedding gifts after their cab sped off with them still in the trunk. Happily, the crisis has been averted, thanks in part the the couple's quick-thinking fam, who immediately starting raising hell with the NYC Taxi Cab Commission while the couple enjoyed their honeymoon vacation in Mexico.

According to WNBC New York, officials were able to track down the cab based on the picture the couple took in front of the car that showed a unique Pepsi logo it carried on top. Officials confirmed that over 250 cabs in the city carry the same logo, but with the help of the cab's GPS system, they were able to identify the driver and track him down.

Earlier this week, the couple's family learned that the driver in question had dropped the gifts off with the bride and groom's doorman, and all their presents were now waiting for them as soon as they got back from their vacation.

Moral of the story: Wedding gifts are best given before the wedding date, rather than on the night of ceremony. Don't make your favorite bride or groom carry the burden -- they're likely to lose it if given half the chance.
