I am thinking that after 15 to 20 min someone could have driven her to the hospital.
It is strange that they didn’t drive her. Wish someone in the UK could shed more light on why.
That’s how it’s done in the colonies, but they have to be self-reliant and a little impulsive.
At least that’s how it used to be done in the colonies.

On second thought, maybe the bridesmaids assumed the hospital knew better.
If the bride was calm and cool, the doctors might’ve told them it wasn’t an emergency.
(My 2nd baby would’ve been born at home, if I’d obeyed the doctor on duty that day.)
